*Thank you so much to the Amazone Playzone for partnering up with us for this blog post*
Planning your child’s birthday party can be overwhelming. Trying to figure out the venue, entertainment, and food can be a daunting task, not to mention the cost! That is why I am always on the look-out for a location that can do it all and most recently that was the Amazone Playzone Indoor Playground. Read on the find out all they have to offer and our experience having our son’s birthday with them.
About
The Amazone Playzone is Edmonton’s newest indoor playground and is the largest facility in western Canada! This place is HUGE, and my kids spent many hours climbing, sliding, and jumping throughout the gigantic fun zone. They have a wide variety of areas including ride on trains, toddler zone, arcade and I also love that they have added their adventure zone for kids over the age of 6. This area offers a ninja warrior obstacle, rock climbing, and more. The Sky Ride was a favorite of the group, a zip line that takes you for a wild ride high up in the sky! They truly have something for every age! You can also dine at their cafe with over 100 items to choose from!
Costs
Birthday Party Packages
Like I said prior, I always try and find a venue that will handle it all – and that’s the Amazone Playzone! They handle entertainment, food, and table set-up which is incredible. They offer 3 different packages and they are all pretty similar but just different quantities of food.
Our Experience
First up was booking the party and it was a breeze. Carlie gave me all the options via email and we connected a couple days later over the phone. She took down my order, I paid my deposit and we were all set! All I had to bring was the cake and any decorations I wanted to add in. The day of the party we all checked in and were shown to our party room shortly after we arrived. I was able to let them know what time I wanted the food, cake, and our visit from Spiderman to be at. I have never actually had a party room for that long! We were able to eat, open presents, visit with Spiderman, eat cake and not feel rushed. Which was a welcome change as we usually, do not have time to do everything and end up opening gifts later on.
We opted for pizza, a fruit and vegetable platter, and fries for our party. I added on one extra pizza but we ended up having a ton of food left over. Overall the food was pretty standard for what you would find in an indoor playground, but I was quite impressed about how much food we got for the price. After we were done eating we opened our gifts and then had a visit from Spiderman! You have the option of a number of different characters to pay your party a visit. He stayed long enough for everyone in the party to snap a photo, the kids absolutely loved it! They then brought out our cake and shortly afterward we moved out of the room and over to a large table near the playground.
Once we were out of the party room the kids had free reign to play for as long as they liked! We also set up a time to take our sky ride, about 5 minutes before our time slot they announced over the intercom to head over. The only struggle was trying to round up all the kids to head over as they were all climbing throughout the playzone. My daughter was quite nervous to try the sky ride but once she got off she was begging us to let her go again! Even my 17-year-old sister took a ride! The kids thoroughly enjoyed the arcade as each child received a card loaded with 20 tokens. Each child was thrilled to leave with a little special something from the prize section.
Final Thoughts
Overall, we loved celebrating my sons birthday at the Amazone Playzone! We had a wide variety of ages at our party and everyone had a great time. So, if you’re looking for a venue for your kiddo’s party I highly recommend checking them out.
