What happens if I am late for my scheduled party?

We will do our best to accommodate you and your guests; however, our party rooms run on a strict schedule and your party may be asked to relocate to another location if available in our facility.  There are no exceptions for late arrivals.  Please arrive at least 15 minutes prior to your scheduled party so we can review your guest list, place any extra food orders, purchase ride tickets or wristbands, and answer any questions you may have.

When do I need to give a final guest count for my birthday party?

Birthday Party Package: Our party rooms comfortably accommodate 24 children. If your scheduled party exceeds that amount, please contact Party Central as soon as possible. If you need more room, you may consider scheduling an extra room for $100 to be certain you have enough space, especially if you will be expecting a large number of adults to attend. If your guest count does not exceed 24 children, it is not necessary to provide your guest count until the day of your party.
