How Far Ahead Should You Plan a Birthday Party?
4 to 8 weeks out: pick the date and package
Start with the birthday kid: who they want there and what they love right now. Then choose a package and book online. Party packages need to be booked ahead.
2 to 3 weeks out: invitations and a theme
Send invitations and settle on a theme. Keep it simple: the birthday kid's favorite color, character or team is plenty. Order the cake now if you are bringing your own.
1 week out: confirm your headcount
Update your reservation to the number of kids you expect. Adding kids on party day is not guaranteed, because party areas have a fixed capacity. Plan table decorations: balloons, banners and centerpieces are welcome; balloon arches are not.
Party day: let the birthday star shine
Arrive a little early so the birthday kid can settle in. Every family gets a matching Kid Check® UV hand stamp at the entrance. Then it is games, the Birthday Show and the Ticket Blaster moment the birthday star will talk about for weeks.
More to Do on Party Day
Every Chuck E. Cheese has the games, the Birthday Show and Chuck E. himself. Some stores add more for the party to enjoy.
The Adventure Zone adds climbing and active play.
Look for Street Pitcher, Ms. Pac-Man and Galaga and Hypershoot. Only a few Chuck E. Cheese stores have them. This store hosts Sensory Sensitive Sundays. Ask about Sensory Sensitive Birthdays for kids who do better with less noise and lower lights (minimum of 10 kids).

Birthday Party Questions, Answered
- The Fun Package is $99.99 for the birthday star plus five friends. Mega and Ultimate are priced per kid, with a five-kid minimum. Here, Mega is $31.99 per kid and Ultimate is $37.99 per kid. Prices can vary by date and time and are confirmed when you book.
- Party packages need to be booked ahead; same-day package bookings are not available. You are always welcome to walk in and celebrate with games and a cake without a package.
- Yes to birthday cake, cupcakes and ice cream. Those are the only outside foods allowed. Chips, candy and other snacks are not, and the menu has pizza, wings and more.
- The Fun Package does not include pizza. Order food at the front register when you arrive, ideally within the first hour, so it reaches the table before your two hours are up. Mega and Ultimate include pizza for every kid.
- It is not guaranteed. Party areas have a fixed capacity, so book the number of kids you expect and scale back if you need to.
- Table decorations are welcome: balloons, banners, tablecloths and centerpieces. Balloon arches and large freestanding pieces are not allowed, since they crowd other parties.
- No. The $50 deposit and the $5 reservation fee are not refunded if you cancel. If you keep the party, the $50 goes toward your bill on party day.
