For Australian parents · Early access

A birthday party plan, made for your kid.

Tell us how old they're turning, the theme they're obsessed with, how many friends are coming, your budget and the date. We send back a personalised Party Plan: the theme, the games, a food list with quantities and a timeline for the day, written for Australian backyards, parks and halls. $39 for the whole party.

Printable invites, signs and labels are $19 extra. Want us to do the shopping too? There's an optional Party Box. Free party printables: a 19-page A4 pack when you join the waitlist

It's 10pm and you've got fourteen tabs open about dinosaur cakes

Most of us want to throw a party our kid will remember. What we don't have is a spare weekend to work out the theme, hunt down matching plates and banners across three shops, and remember the candles.

The planning eats your evenings

Themes, games, timings, what to buy and where. It adds up to hours you'd rather spend elsewhere.

The little things add up

A few extra balloons here, another pack of plates there. Without a number to plan against, it creeps.

The last-minute scramble

The banner hasn't arrived, nobody bought candles, and you're not sure what game comes after cake.

A bin full of plastic

Single-use decorations and loot-bag trinkets that are broken or forgotten by Monday.

Parties can get expensive. In a Decathlon survey of more than 1,000 Australian parents, the reported average spend on a kids' party was $1,118, and 61% said they'd decided not to host at least once because of the cost. The Party Plan is $39, and we build it around the budget you give us. Source: Decathlon survey, as reported by The Courier Mail.
How it works

Three steps, and the planning is done for you

Tell us the basics

Age, theme, number of guests, budget in AUD and the date. It takes about two minutes.

We write your plan

We build a personalised Party Plan: theme, games pitched at your child's age, a food list with quantities and a timeline for the day. It comes to you as a PDF you can print or keep on your phone.

Shop it, or let us

Most parents take the plan and do the shopping themselves. If you'd rather not, add a Party Box: we shop, pack and post the decorations, tableware and game supplies to your door.

Want a bit more?

Two optional extras

The plan is all most parents need. If you'd like some of the work taken off your hands as well, there are two ways to add to it.

Printable Pack, +$19

Print-ready invites, signs, food labels, game sheets and thank-you cards in your theme. Print them at home or at your local print shop.

Party Box, from $229

Rather not shop at all? We buy the decorations, tableware, game supplies and loot-bag bits for your theme, pack them with your plan and post the box to your door. Boxes are $229, $249 or $279 plus shipping, and need at least 14 days' notice. We tell you the exact total and arrival date before you pay.

We're in early access, so we don't have photos of our own boxes yet. The photos on this site are stock images for theme inspiration.

Whatever they're into this year
