Your Geelong Children's Party Planning Guide

Kids' parties around Corio Bay split into two kinds: a hosted party at a centre that runs the whole thing, or a backyard party with hired extras. Age, guest numbers and the weather usually decide which one makes sense.

Party formats to compare:

  • Trampoline parks at Newcomb and Grovedale: indoor, hosted, with party rooms, from $25 per person.
  • Craft and clay: a craft studio in the CBD with plaster painting and tie dye from $25 per person, a pottery studio in Drysdale from $35 per person, or bush clay workshops at Bellbrae.
  • Painting at Torquay: a guided art class for small groups from $45 per person.
  • Older kids: laser skirmish at Bell Park from $30 per person or free-roam virtual reality in South Geelong from $39 per person, so check the minimum ages.
  • Outdoor fun: two adventure golf courses at Wallington with a party room.
  • Backyard extras: jumping castles from $200, a hoop and circus entertainer from $300, and balloon backdrops from $160.

Browse trampoline parks, jumping castle hire and kids' entertainers to put the day together.

Choosing by age

  • Preschoolers do well with a short backyard party, a jumping castle and simple games.
  • Primary-age kids suit trampoline parks, craft studios and adventure golf.
  • Older kids and young teens tend to want laser skirmish or VR, where minimum ages and heights apply.

Weather and outdoor plans

  • Wind on the Bellarine and the Surf Coast can stop a jumping castle being used, so ask the hire company about wind limits and refunds.
  • Pack sunscreen and hats for summer parties, and plan shade for any outdoor activity.
  • Indoor centres make a reliable choice for winter birthdays.

Questions to ask

  • What is included in the party package: host, room, food and invitations?
  • What are the minimum and maximum guest numbers?
  • Are there age or height limits?
  • Can you bring a cake, and are allergy-friendly food options available?
