Children’s Birthday Parties

For ease, we recommend booking Children’s Birthday Parties for Bowling and Karting online. To reserve your lanes with our sales team, a non-refundable 50% deposit per child will be required (minimum of 7 children needed to book Birthdays for Bowling and Karting, 10 for soft play and 7 for Karting) at the time of booking. The remaining balance must be paid no later than 14 days prior to the date of your party booking.

In the event of cancellation after paying your party balance, all monies are non-refundable. All members of the party must be under 16. The management regret that they cannot accept responsibility for groups of children, therefore it is requested that two parents, guardians or responsible persons aged 18 or over are present for every group of 6 children for the duration of the Birthday Party to ensure you have the most enjoyable experience possible.

All birthday packages are subject to availability. It is the responsibility of the party organisers (parents or guardians) to ensure that children are supervised in such a way as to avoid the possibility of any accident or injury from this cause or any other. The party organiser needs to provide the birthday cake for presentation to the Birthday Child.

To allow for collection of shoes (bowling shoes are optional) and allocation of lanes etc we recommend you arrive 15 minutes prior to the commencement of your booking (unless you are booked at 10am) for Bowling, Soft Play or Karaoke or 30 minutes for Karting. Late arrivals may not be able to bowl and will lose the total amount paid. Please leave plenty of time for your journey; we will do our best to accommodate late comers however we are not responsible if traffic prevents your from attending on time.
