Packaway Parties Reviews 

I'm very happy that I found Packaway Parties. Liz made the whole process very easy, and the box was filled with brilliant games and decorations - far more than I thought she would send. The children all had a brilliant time. The sweet shop was a massive hit, as were the games.

An amazing Harry Potter package offering excellent value for money. Our youth group loved dressing up in the cloaks, receiving their own wands, being sorted into houses and taking part in the games—especially the Dementor and Dobby’s sock game!

The high-quality props and signs created a fantastic atmosphere, and everything came with clear instructions. Delivery and collection were easy and convenient, while communication with Liz was excellent throughout. Having costumes included was also a huge help for families. We would definitely use Packaway Parties again!

My daughter and her friends loved her Harry Potter themed birthday party. I was very impressed by the level of thought and creativity which had gone into the package contents. Party plan manual ensured that kids were kept entertained throughout. They particularly loved the sorting hat and potion making with the cauldron. Would highly recommend!

Packaway Parties is such an original and brilliant concept! We held the Harry Potter themed party for our daughter's 7th birthday and I can't recommend this company enough. Everything is so clearly laid out for you with thorough instructions, all the props and decorations and costumes - and it arrives on your doorstep a few days ahead of the party, with a courier all arranged to collect it afterwards. Our daughter and her friends loved all the games, and me and my husband surprisingly got very into playing the roles of Professor Dumbledore and MacGonagall!

We hired the Lego Ninjago party box deluxe package. We loved the contents of the box. It was all very well organised and the folder with the plan in was excellent and easy to follow.  

The ninja party bags went down very well, especially the ninja headband! 

I was happy with the pricing and the ease of delivery and return and communication from Liz was excellent.

What an exceptional business! Communication is excellent and the party packs are wonderful; so much content and so well explained. Liz supports you every step of the way and our boy and his friends had an absolute blast. Would highly recommend Packaway Parties in a heartbeat and plan to use again. Thank you!

We have now hosted three birthday parties using pack away parties and all have been fantastic! The games are so creative but easy to set up and orchestrate. The decorations transform any space and the goodie bags and tableware make it so easy. It would cost easily £800 (at least) to buy all the props, costumes and decorations yourself, so it's a really good deal. I'd highly recommend the Harry Potter, wicked and encanto themes for girls ages 7-9.

Communication was excellent, party pack was outstanding, instructions were clear, well thought off, detailed and more than enough activities for the party. Drop-off and Collection was easy and well prepared. 100% would recommend this to anyone. Well done Liz fantastic service all around.

I would highly recommend Packaway Parties! We hired the Harry Potter party for 12 children for my son's 8th birthday. The kids absolutely loved it! The decorations, including platform 9 3/4 hanging over the doorway, big Hogwarts backdrop and house banners created an exciting atmosphere. Dressing up for children and adults was super fun. Items such as the talking sorting hat, gnashing monster book of monsters, and 'steaming' cauldron made the party truly magical. The Honeydukes sweet shop was also a big hit! Communication from Liz was quick, clear and helpful throughout. While the party plan seemed daunting at first, it was very well written and easy to follow. With such a variety of themes to choose from, and most of the planning already done for you, we would happily use Packaway Parties again!

Well thought out party plan with all you need for games and decorations, we had the pokemon party and thought it was brilliant! Loved that we got to dress up and get into character too. Great value compared to buying and planning it all yourself. Will definitely use again!

Excellent communication and organisation - if you are looking for a ready made party with a plan, this is the company for you. I hired the Lego party, there were lots of activities and ideas to entertain a group of 7-8 year olds. The high viz vests were a hit!

We hired a Harry Potter party for a 8 year old. Communication was brilliant throughout. Very understanding when Royal Mail tried to collect the box afterwards outside of timeframe originally given and reorganised another collection for us without any fuss.
The party package itself was amazing. A little daunting when first opening the box and seeing everything, but after a couple of practice run throughs it was absolutely fine. The party went so smoothly, the script and timings were very accurate and impressively thought out. The contents of the box were brilliant (especially the monster book and the cauldron mist) and every single child was fully engaged throughout and had an amazing time. I would say the party was spot on for a group of 7/8 year olds, but my 9 year old niece and 5 year old daughter also loved it! I would definitely recommend and use again.

We hired the Lego party package from Packaway Parties for our son’s 7th birthday and it was brilliant. Everything arrived in plenty of time and the party plan made it really easy to organise and run.

The children had a great time and loved all the activities, the car building and racing was a huge hit. The games and Lego kept around 20 seven year olds entertained and engaged throughout the party.

Liz was also really helpful in the lead up to the party. I’d definitely recommend Packaway Parties to other parents.

We hired the Harry Potter party for our daughter's 8th birthday and we all had a great time! The box includes fantastic instructions for all the games, each one was different and the kids enjoyed it a lot. The sorting hat was brilliant! Liz was fantastic for communication and any questions that we had.

We hired a lego kit for my daughter's 6th birthday party. I loved the eco credentials that we were hiring rather than buying things we would never need again. The builder high vis jackets, sticker charts and the sheer amount of lego had a real wow factor for the 13 kids who came along. I also loved that we could send back the millions of pieces of lego after it ended!! The games were thoughtful and organised and there was more than enough to keep the 5 and 6 year olds entertained for 2 hours. The build a car game was a particular hit. Thank you Liz!

Liz was so helpful and responsive right from the very start. We hired the Harry Potter party package for my daughter's 8th birthday and it was great to have everything planned out for us. The (huge number of!) room decorations transformed our house, the games were so well planned with brilliant interactive props and the costumes for the kids and adults were a big hit! It was so much fun running the party and I love that I didn't have to plan it all myself. I would definitely recommend packaway parties.

My son had a fantastic Pokemon party for his 8th birthday. The communication with Liz throughout has been excellent and made running the party straightforward and stress free. The pack comes with a comprehensive guide with timings for running the games which worked perfectly. All the kids had a fantastic time and several said it was the best party ever!

Such a great service! Items supplied were fantastic and really made the party. Liz was so great at communicating and organising the deliveries/collection, and the process ran totally smoothly. Would recommend this 100%

Great idea and the part package had everything you needed for the party. We had the Lego party and the kids loved the games especially the stealth game. Some games we didn’t play as the kids were not interested at times but we played most of them. I also hired for the deluxe pack which was great not having to think of party bags and decorations

Such a great idea! We had the Harry Potter party package which was brilliant. You literally have everything needed to keep the children entertained, plus more than enough decorations. The folder with instructions and party plan was amazing. I was worried we would get through everything too quick but the children loved the games so much we had to do them multiple times and ended up running behind and forgetting to do the potion tasting! Liz answered all my questions promptly and was super helpful. I would definitely recommend.
