Packaway Parties Reviews 

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.

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.

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.

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 - 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! 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!

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!

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”.

Great party experience - everything we needed was in the box, decorations and all!

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.

The Harry Potter party pack was absolutely fantastic. I was concerned that it might be a bit young for children aged 9 and 10. However, I could not have been more wrong! The children all loved it and said it was the best party they had ever been to!

The pack contained so much and was very impressive. There were so many decorations that we couldn't use them all! The games were great fun and props were fantastic. The pack contains full and very clear details about how to play the games, as well as timings and a suggested schedule.

The courier arrangments were also brilliant and the whole process was complete seamless. I love the eco side of this and the reduction in waste from reusing items. The whole process was absolutely brilliant and I would definitely recommend!

A brilliant find and so glad I chose to use Packaway parties for my sons birthday. We hired the Lego party and all the children had lots of fun. The organisation was very easy given that Liz had written out comprehensive instructions and everything was clearly labelled. Delivery and collection of the party box was really easy. There was a good range of games, we substituted in our own pass the parcel game for one. Tons of decorations and excellent props to use, it saved me so much time it was well worth it and justified the cost. Excellent communication from Liz too when enquiring. Thank you!

The kids LOVED it! So creatively planned and every little attention to detail was excellent. My son was so excited to decorate and could hardly contain himself. The sweet store was brilliant. They loved the parachute and obstacle course games and the party bags were excellent. Perfect for a fun filled, relaxed, stress free event- very reasonably priced for all the amazing stuff you get and all flawless with delivery, couriers etc- what a wonderful business and I would thoroughly recommend

My daughters party was absolutely fabulous and the children all had so much fun!  We couldn't have done it without the party pack. 

The pack contained way more than I expected and we was very excited to get everything set up.  We were lucky enough to hold it in the garden which gave us lots of rooms for the games.

My sister is also a massive Harry Potter fan and really enjoyed running all the games, we improvised a little as some of the games took a little longer and we found it easier to just go with the flow. 

We found the pack extremely helpful as it explained everything so well, and I would say it was definitely worth the money we paid. All of the signs and banners were great and really got the children's imagination going. 

Everything went smoothly and was easy to do , Liz was extremely helpful and efficient throughout.

My son and his friends loved the Pokemon party. It was very easy to run and the games were simple. It was all packed so well and easy to pack away. I'd highly recommend this to anyone looking for an easy party to have at home. Glowing reviews from all the kids!

Very glad I found Packaway Parties... saved me loads of time and brainpower with a really comprehensive and fun package. So comprehensive I couldn't fit all the activities in. Liz was very pleasant and great at keeping in touch too. Thanks!

Absolutely amazing! I had so many compliments on the decorations, games and treats from children and parents alike. Communications from the company was incredibly supportive throughout. Would 100% recommend.

I am so glad we used Packaway parties!!! Our daughter requested a Harry Potter party and I had no idea where to start, luckily came across packaway parties and loved the idea!! The decorations were fabulous, games were fun and the costumes provided just finished it all off! We have made new potter fans as so e friends loved it all but hadnt watched or read Harry Potter.
I love that the items get reused, as usual would spend so much on decorations only to throw them away, which is so wasteful- I love this whole idea and have already recommended to friends.
They made everything so easy and were really helpful and friendly when arranging everything, thank you packaway parties for making my daughters birthday just magical!

Our overall experience with packaway parties was excellent. When my daughter announced that she would like a Harry Potter party for her birthday I didn't have a clue how to put it together for her without it costing a bomb and spending hours sourcing games and decorations. Using packaway parties was SO easy and worth every penny. Liz was fantastic at communicating the whole way through and everything was super organised. My daughter and her friends had a wonderful fun afternoon, I would definitely use again.

We hired the Harry Potter Packaway Party and my 7yo daughter had a great time. Plenty of games, ideas and easy to follow instructions. We added in some of our own ideas such as a potion making class too. I would definitely recommend Packaway Parties. Easy to order and arrived in a secure box on time.
