Birthdays are the highlight of every child’s year — a chance to celebrate, laugh, and create memories that feel out of this world. At Little Astronauts, we’ve designed every detail of our party experience to make hosting completely stress-free for parents and unforgettable for kids.
Here’s how to plan the perfect celebration from start to finish.
🎉 Step 1: Choose Your Party Package
Whether you’re planning an intimate get-together or a full-on galactic gathering, our dedicated party zones can host anywhere from 10 to 50 children. For even larger celebrations, private hire is available, giving you full access to our entire play area.
Every booking includes:
- A dedicated party host to take care of the details
- Hot food and unlimited juice for the children
- Plates, cups, sauces, and decorations
- Cake ceremony assistance — just bring the cake and we’ll handle the rest!
You can also add a visit from Cosmo, our friendly astronaut mascot, for just £30, or make it extra fun with astronaut dress-up for £3.50 per child.
📅 Step 2: Book Early & Secure Your Date
Once you’ve picked your party date, simply secure your booking with a 30% deposit based on your minimum expected number of guests (e.g., 10 children).
You can confirm final numbers and pay the remaining balance up to 7 days before the event.
Tip: Schools and nurseries often help distribute invitations, so get your list ready early.
💌 Step 3: Send Your Invites
We provide free party invitations, available to collect from our reception desk.
Each child can bring one adult, while the birthday child can bring up to four adults free of charge.
Additional adults are just £3.25 per person — so everyone can join in the fun.
🛍 Step 4: Add Party Bags & Finishing Touches
To make your little one’s day extra special, we offer custom party bags filled with toys, sweets, and games for £2.50 per child.
You’re welcome to bring small decorations or balloons — just avoid sticking anything to the walls or furniture.
🎂 Step 5: What to Bring (and What Not to!)
You only need to bring one thing: the cake.
We take care of the rest — from the food and drinks to lighting the candles and helping distribute cake slices into party bags.
If you’d like to provide platters or adult meals, our on-site restaurant has plenty of delicious options available to order on the day.
👩🚀 Step 6: Relax & Enjoy the Adventure
On the big day, your party host will handle everything — from greeting guests to serving food and coordinating the cake ceremony — so you can sit back, take photos, and enjoy your child’s big moment.
Parking: Easy parking is available on the top floor of The Prospect Shopping Centre.
