Our dance parties are perfect for children aged 4 to 11, with sessions adapted to suit the age and energy of the group.
Our standard party length is 90 minutes, including dancing, games, breaks, and time for cake. We can adjust timings to suit your needs.
We don’t provide food, but we offer time and space for you to bring your own cake, party snacks, or party bags.
No need! Comfortable clothing and trainers or socks are absolutely fine. We recommend a water bottle for each child.
