Feb 12,2024The package had many fun games and plenty of sweetie prizes! The kids looked forward to completing their training cards! The questions were too hard for the children and only one question was asked as every child decided to go and find a pokeball instead. Regardless they all said they had a fantastic time and the obstacle course was hilariously fun!

Feb 08,2024I almost ruined things early on, by sending an email changing my request to the wrong date with a typo, but somehow Liz saved the day, even though I realised very late on! I am sure Liz found managing my stress quite wearisome but she never showed it and made sure everything arrived and went to plan. I booked a Harry Potter party for 16 8 year olds and it worked brilliantly. The decorations took a while to set up, even with 3 of us. Probably the best bit was getting everyone through platform 9 and 3/4 and telling them they were witches and wizards. The instructions are easy to understand, which is good because the pace was frenetic. My lack of wand skills didnt matter as the kids had plenty of ideas of how to spell! We did detour off plan to force Dumbledore off the astronomy tower (I think the students were more sad in the film than our bunch were). Afterwards, there are even instructions on packing up and the couriers appeared as if by Knight Bus to take the box away again. I could have come up with a party, and it would probably have been ok - but the box enabled me to have loads of props and equipment I either wouldnt have had, or would have bought at great expense and wasted. This allowed us to have a great time without the waste. The birthday girl declared it the best party ever, which is high praise indeed. Thanks Liz.

Feb 06,2024We had a Harry Potter Party for 8/9 year olds. There were loads of decorations to set the hall up and the instructions for the games were easy to follow and run. Everyone had a great time. Liz was brilliant from booking through to checking in afterwards.

Jan 30,2024The party pack we received was fantastic, with so many great little surprises, and lots of decorations to transform our home. The instructions and party plan was easy to use and the games were a real hit with the kids. Liz was fantastic - so helpful and organised. Highly recommend.

Jan 30,2024Brilliant concept and service. We chose the Ninjago party for my 5-year old. The pack completely entertained 10 kids for two hours. The decorations were fab and created a great atmosphere. Games were fun, easy to run and accessible. This is a good value alternative to hiring an entertainer or party venue. I recommend the deluxe option which saves lots of time in ordering party plates, party bags etc. A hit for parents and kids all round!

Jan 24,2024We enjoyed a fantastic ‘Lego’ themed party for our 6 year old, the resources were brilliant and the plan to execute the activities was incredibly detailed to allow for an incredibly successful and unique party. Great value for money, promoting forward thinking sustainable practice for parties and allowing for a very simple and easy party led by yourself, allowing you to fully enjoy the experience too.

Jan 09,2024Great Harry Potter themed box with lots of games and decorations. We were really impressed with the box and how easy it was to use and follow. The party plan was foolproof and everything went perfectly on the day. I also thought it was great value for money and I loved the sustainable aspect. We had a very happy 9 year old after the party, and two very tired parents 😁

Dec 23,2023What a great idea. Booked only a week before, as Granddaughter decided at the last minute she would like a party. Some of the girls said it was the best party ever. Great decorations & fun games. Easy booking & returns. Thankyou

Dec 18,2023A magical birthday party for my 7 year old son. Oliver opted for a Harry Potter theme after seeing photos from my niece's packaway party and we were absolutely thrilled. The box contained everything we needed and for someone who works full time it really took the pressure off dashing out for last minute bits and bobs. The manual was a total bible and incredibly easy to follow. My sister told me to read it the night before which was good advice! I felt really prepared to then deliver the party the following day. We chose to slightly change the order and have food after all of the games but that was due to lack of space as we had the party at home. Next year Oliver wants another packaway party which is brilliant. I think personally I will hire a hall instead of at home but again this is due to boys getting bigger and Oliver having siblings who got in the way! All in all a truly wonderful party and feedback from guests say already that it's the best party their kids have been to! Thank you so much 🪄⚡️

Dec 18,2023Awesome party. Massive mat of Lego created the best party ever for mostly neurodivergent kids! The games were great too and we made that optional so some just kept building. Overall most chilled party many of us had seen for 6/7yos! Very comprehensive with the delux package, just bought food and didn't have to think about it all until the day before. Perfect for working parents. Thank you Packaway Liz :)

Dec 07,2023Both our children are autistic and my daughter especially has sensory processing difficulties with noise and neither can cope with loud overwhelming environments but with your packaway parties we could have a small party in the comfort of our own home. It's so well organised, the children loved all the decorations and the games and the timing was perfect. This is the 3rd time I've used packaway parties and everytime the party is perfectly planned, comes with everything you could think of and the children have loved every one. We've used Harry Potter, Lego and Encanto.

Dec 04,2023My 8 year old son wanted a Pokemon themed party for his Birthday and I was so lucky to find Liz from Packaway Parties to supply me with everything I needed. The party was a great success!!! Many Thanks to Liz for a great communication and service!

Nov 19,2023- The package had everything we needed for 22 children! We were so impressed at how much was in the crate. The costumes, props and decorations were all of good quality- it spread out well around our large village hall. - The party plan was well set out and easy to follow. It was a relief to have a step by step for each game- you can’t go wrong! The children particularly loved the Spell’s game and happily got into their ‘trainee’ wizard roles! - Having the skills card to tick off each challenge helped to keep the party structure. They were keen to get through all of the games. - Dobbies sock game was great, easy to follow with the added bonus that the children loved meeting Dobbie! - we would definitely use Packaway Parties again, it’s a fantastic concept. The package had everything we needed, the process of delivery and collection was very easy.

Nov 04,2023This is the second time we’ve used Packaway Parties. It takes the stress out of figuring out what party games we should play and trying to source it all. I love that you use the items and return them, so there’s minimal waste.

Feb 26,2024Great package of well thought out games, props and decorations. We entertained 12 8-10 year olds for a Harry Potter party, they loved it. I really like the sustainability concept of this- no plastic clutter acquired, all went back into the box…
