"Wonderful Harry Potter party!"

It was probably the best, and the easiest, party that we’ve ever put on: it was really fun for us (also Harry Potter fans) to get involved with the costumes and the story of wizard lessons. The decorations all added great atmosphere, especially the honeydukes sweet shop and banners, and the games were just right: not too long, great variety and using props that we would never have invested in ourselves – so that made it really special. It was so easy to follow the games instructions and they kept everyone entertained for the full 2.5 hours. I loved that they won a gold coin in one game and then could spend it at the sweet shop for another activity. One of the best things about it was also that we could pack it all back up into the box (no leftover debris) and know that it will all be re-used: this, and the very eco-friendly party bags, was great. The drop off and collection was very efficient and we would definitely recommend this brilliant way of putting on a children’s party.

"Great Ninjago Party!"

We chose the Ninjago Party and my son and his friends had the best time. They were all Ninja's for the day and received a certificate at the end to show they had completed their training. The package had everything we needed and more, you only really need to supply the food and cake!. It was all so organised and we had great feedback from the parents. Be prepared to get familiar with the games beforehand, there is some effort involved to ensure smooth running of the party. I never thought I would end up being a party entertainer but it was easy and fun and great value for money.
I would 100% recommend Packaway Party to anyone.

"Packaway Parties Harry Potter Theme"

We used Packaway Parties for our daughters 6th birthday party.
The Harry Potter theme is fantastic.
Such a sustainable way to create a dramatic effect. The decorations are great, even in a large space. We hired a village hall and it was perfect.
Adding on the tableware and party bags made it hassle free.
Just be prepared to need to be the entertainer. I managed but was a bit nervous to try and keep 20 children’s attention but the games provided did that.
I’ve had amazing comments from the other parents, all the children had an amazing time.
Thank you to Liz for being so helpful and it running so smoothly.

"A magical party"

This is such a great idea for a children’s birthday party and much more sustainable. My daughter and her friends had such a magical time at her Harry Potter party and the feedback from their parents was so positive. The children loved the cauldron with real mist and I would definitely recommend the Honeydukes sweet shop add on.
It was so nice to have a more traditional birthday party in the garden with such a creative twist. It far exceeds something like a soft play party and feels so much more personal. I would absolutely have a Packaway party again!

"Wow what a party!"

Wow - this was a truly amazing, organised and personalised party package. We ordered the deluxe package and the sweet shop, both of these are excellent value for money and enormously time saving. Everything about the company shouts exceptional quality whether it be the prompt communication, decorations, party games or the perfect organisation. For a very busy family having a box arrive a few days before the party with everything you could possibly need or more was very time saving for us. We couldn't believe how much was packed into the box, much more than we were expecting. The instructions were organised and easy to follow. There were plenty of ways to adapt the activities to your own needs. Everything had been well thought out and carefully planned. The best thing of all was the reaction of the children at the party. They all said this was the best party they had been too, adored the games and becoming a Ninjago Ninja! We can't recommend this enough and we will be booking again!

"What a fantastic idea!"

What a fantastic idea! Liz helped me create a brilliant Willy Wonka themed party for my son’s 5th birthday! We had the party in a generic church hall but it was transformed with the wonderful decorations! The kids loved the party bags with the chocolate bar concealing a golden ticket - pack away parties made it a really special themed event and Liz was also quick to respond and received & sending back all the party prep was hassle free and easy! Would definitely recommend!

"A great party"

Liz was lovely to liaise with, so helpful and organised. The party box was great, with loads of props and decorations. The games were fantastic too and took lots of the stress away from party planning!

"Harry Potter party: Lots of fun, and well organised"

This was a unique and special party that we’ll remember for years to come! Communcation with “Packaway Parties” was smooth, efficient and personal. I couldn’t believe that all the things we got to hire and keep all fitted into a single box! It was all so well organised and thought through. The level of detail was impressive! The party did require prepping, but the 2-days given for that was more than sufficinet. My son enjoyed his Harry Potter party so much, and I’m hearing his friends did too. It was a great way to get to know his friends and have fun. Elements of it was quite magic! Would definitely recommend “Packaway Parties”.

"Magical Harry Potter party"

Such a fantastic party! All the kids (age 5-8) loved it! The instructions were clear and everything ran to time as per the schedule.

The decorations and props were good quality and games were imaginative and fun. The magic of Hogwarts was recreated in our home!

The courier service was straight forward.

The whole experience was brilliant and I would recommend to anyone.

Only thing to note is that it is quite time consuming to prepare for eg get your head round the activities and put up the decorations etc. It also requires a lot of input on the day but this is part of the fun! Just make sure you have enough help/support around to facilitate it.
