50+ Incredible Places to Host Your Children’s Birthday Party in Düsseldorf

There are so many amazing ways to celebrate your children’s birthday party in Düsseldorf, but when the time comes we somehow always feel so stumped on ideas. For that reason exactly, we’ve been building this list up over the years. If you have more great ideas to add or you offer your own birthday party packages in Düsseldorf, don’t be scared to let us know!

 

Trampoline Party

Take your pick! Jump Galaxy or Superfly?! With trampolines everywhere, foam pits, and dodgeball fun, your friends can bounce and play to their heart’s content. Plus, they both offer awesome party packages with everything you need for a stress-free, super-fun celebration. It’s a high-energy way to make birthday memories that’ll have everyone jumping for joy!

 

The Basti-Bus

If you’re looking to celebrate at home while keeping the kids preoccupied and not flipping the house upside down, the Basti-Bus is a perfect party idea. They will visit your home with the Basti-Bus so that the kids can hop on in and enjoy a couple of hours learning how to woodwork, sand their figures, and then color them in. At my daughter’s birthday, we also booked their bouncy castle add-on so those who finished up quicker had even more time to bounce (rather than flipping the house upside down, haha).

 

Museum Party

Heinrich-Heine-Institut, Filmmuseum Düsseldorf, Kunstsammlung, you take your pick! So many museums around Düsseldorf offer kids birthday party packages with tons of different themes that your kiddos will love at any age. How about a book-binding party? A make-your-own-film party? Or even a shadow party? Anything goes! Check out Musenkuss for more information.

 

Party in a Castle

I bet you didn’t know you could have your own murder detective party in the gardens of Schloss Benrath! They offer tons of different themed parties for kids of all ages including “Das Geheimnis des schüchternen Dieners Ferdinand”, “Nachts in Museum”, “Medienlabor”, and “Fuchsjagd”. Check out their website for more birthday party ideas at Schloss Benrath.

 

Arts & Crafts Party

Tons of places around Düsseldorf offer a great kids “Bastelparty”! You can check out KRASS in Eller for your basic arts and crafts party, or a make-your-own soap party at Der Projekteffect, DIY jewelry at Perlenreich or ELA EIS, mosaic making at Mused Mosaik, or even upcycling at Kreative Kids Düsseldorf. If you’d rather have the party come to you, you can do a stamp-making party with Stampelnmitliebe, or hire the Basti Bus for a couple of hours.

 

Host Your Own Game Show

Imagine hosting your own reality game show with your friends?! 7 game zones, 100 different games, and 1,000 square meters of ultimate birthday fun. This is what you’ll find at Your Showdown in Düsseldorf. Recommended for children 12 and up. Alternatively, you can check out Bash Rooms which also offers to build your own game show with friends and colleagues (although I’m not entirely sure if they have kid-specific packages).

 

Escape Room Party

Whether The Code Agency (our favorite), Locked Room, Mission60Minutes, TeamEscape, or ExitDoors, there are tons of escape rooms in Düsseldorf that also host kids’ parties!

 

Indoor Playground Party

Bobbolino: For those high-energy kiddos looking for a wild indoor experience, Bobbolino is a massive indoor playground with more slides, inflatable toys, and birthday party madness than you can imagine.

Gino’s Kinderland: You’ve got all the birthday packages you need here and enough activities and play areas to keep the kids busy for hours!

Just outside of Düsseldorf, you can also check out Hi-Fy Trampolinpark, Trampolino, OkiDoki Kinderparadies, Ballorig, Bero’s Kinderwelten Neuss, and Leo’s Abenteuerland!

 

Rock Climbing Party

For those aged 5 and up rock climbing is the perfect way to test your skills and enjoy some time with your friends. COSMO sports is home to many different activities (also well suited for a children’s birthday party) but our favourite has got to be MOVE Kletterhalle (where Jenna celebrated her son’s 6th birthday). If you’re interested in one closer to your home, you can also check out Superblock Boulderhalle, Einstein Boulderhalle, Halle Mensch, and Monkey Spot.

 

Lasertag Party

Laser tag is a total blast for kids’ birthday parties! It’s like stepping into a real-life video game where they can team up, chase, and zap their way through a neon-lit arena. With plenty of action, strategy, and giggles, it’s a game that keeps everyone moving and having fun. Plus, the thrill of dodging and tagging makes for an epic birthday that’s sure to be remembered! You’ll find all this at LazerZone, Lasertag Evolution, or FunZone in Düsseldorf. FunZone also offered mini-putting, axe throwing, game shows, exit games, paint zones, ralley zones, and karaoke zones!

 

Sports Party

In addition to rock climbing and trampoline fun, we’ve also got a sports complex in Düsseldorf that is filled with amazing birthday party options for kids — COSMO SPORTS! If you haven’t heard of it before, you’re missing you! While you can go with your family and friends any day of the week (definitely make a reservation beforehand), you can also celebrate your birthday here with food, cake, drinks, and fun playing beach volleyball, bowling, arrow tag, bubble ball, Gellyball, pixel games, and much, much more!

 

High Ropes Party

No fear of heights? Querfeldein in Düsseldorf offers a number of different party packages which include different rope courses for a variety of different ages. You can pick and choose based on your child’s interests!

 

Bowling Party

There are a number of different bowling alleys around Düsseldorf where you can celebrate your child’s birthday. Many of these locations also offer party packages including food, drinks, and dessert. Potentially a party room as well!

 

Mini Putting Party

There are a few different options around Düsseldorf including GlowingRooms and ActionZone. You can often find mini-golf deals on Groupon for 20 – 50% off the normal ticket price, so make sure you check there first!

BBQ Party

For those kiddies whose birthdays fall during the warmer months of the year, a BBQ along Unterbacher Lake is a great option. You can rent the tables and chairs if required, and you are able to rent a number of different BBQ spots (incl. BBQ) around the lake. There are washrooms available around the corner and ample parking spots. We personally always choose the one right next to the playground (on the ‘Nordseite’ by the lighthouse). A BBQ birthday is a great option if you’re also planning on inviting the parents too.

 

Picnic Party

Freizeitpark Ulenbergstrasse is also a great option. It is an open park with multiple playgrounds for children of all ages, a skateboard park, a badminton court, a football pitch, and plenty of green space for a picnic (or you can also rent a BBQ here as well). There are washrooms available on site and ample parking spots.

 

Sewing Party

Creamberry’s sewing parties are also hosted in English for children ages 7+. Those who attend the party will learn how to use the sewing machine and will also walk away with some awesome sewing projects to show their friends. The host can share some sewing ideas with the birthday girl or boy ahead of time so they can pick what they would like their friends to sew that day.

 

Baking Party

TEAM CANDY in Düsseldorf offers a beautiful party location and also hosts children’s baking parties. The parties usually run between 2-2,5 hours and the children can learn how to bake cupcakes, cakes, or perhaps even some seasonal goodies! Baking is of course also followed by decorating with pearls, glitter, and any other toppings that might suit your birthday party motto. Drinks, snacks, and pizza is also offered as part of the birthday party package.

 

Cooking Party

Küchenparty für Kinder is on Eulerstraße, 13 in Düsseldorf (also at Team Candy), and your kids can choose from burgers, pasta, pizza, and everything in between for their kitchen party! Expect a full meal (appetizers, main dishes, sides, desserts, and more) and don’t forget those takeaway containers.

Up to celebrating your kid’s party in Mönchengladbach? Schaffrath actually has their Cucina Bambini Kinderkochschule which is open for birthday parties and there are 3 different menus you can choose from! L’Osteria in Mönchengladbach and Mülheim an der Ruhr also offers kids pizza parties too.

 

Stone Age Party

Stone age what?! Yep, you heard it right! The Neanderthal Museum offers stone age birthday parties (for adults too – and can also be hosted in English) where participants can take a guided tour of the museum, try out some stone-age techniques such as making fire or building stone-age knives and learn how to hunt with bows and arrows. You can also take a look through their birthday packages as some include arts and crafts as well as Olympic games.

 

Ice Skating Party

If you’re looking for something unique, look no further than Benrath Eishalle where you can book an ice-skating package for your child’s birthday which also includes access to the lounge and bar.

 

Pottery Painting Party

If your child (7+) loves crafts, Eigenlob is a great option to host their birthday party. At Eigenlob, the children will be able to paint their own pottery pieces (breakfast plate, muesli bowl, or cup) with some instruction from the host. There are often also finger foods offered and beverages. If you’re looking for somewhere closer to home, you can also check out Dream Pottery Cafe, Manufattura Keramic selbst bemalen, or DüsselLiebe.

 

Pony Riding Party

Fafas Ponyranch in Bilk is a wonderful way to celebrate your child’s birthday outdoors. Their birthday party packages can include grooming the ponies, riding the ponies, a BBQ, jumping on the trampoline, and more. You can add and remove parts of the birthday package to your booking for the optimal experience. There are also a ton of other pony and horse stables around Düsseldorf that host birthday party packages that you can check out too!

 

Farm Animals Party

Take the kiddies to Bauernhof Grütersaap or Gutshof Niederheid for a real farm experience. They can head to the petting zoo and get to know the animals, they can ride the ponies, and at Grütersaap they can also join in on a bobby car race, and enjoy a wonderful picnic in the barn. Food and drinks are not prepared there, but you are welcome to bring your own for the picnic.

Gut Klein-Düssel also offers a cool kids’ birthday package that includes farm games like potato sack races, the rubber boot toss, and baking Stockbrot around the campfire!

Wildpark is another great place if you’re just looking for a petting zoo!

Celebrating a child’s birthday at home? Here are some tips! 

The prep list for my younger daughter’s birthday was slightly longer than the one for a 16-year-old (it was her first birthday), and the number of times I’ve checked out Pinterest for some new ideas was innumerate. Here was the plan: 

• Location: Home Sweet Home
• Guests: 5-10 friends
• Decoration: who doesn’t love a good photoshoot? If they’re a bit older, you could also throw them a dress-up party and take photos of them in their different costumes. We made sure we had decorations for the room (balloons, birthday banner, etc.), highchair decorations, and cake table decorations (found some cute sets at Kids Party World)
• Cake: Cake is the highlight for any party, and there are a variety of bakeries and confectioneries around the city which offer cakes for special days – Heinnemanns, Byzantio, Pure Freude to name a few. I usually like to order from local Pâtissiers – if you like, you can check out @cake_art_duesseldorf
• Presents: If there is one way to keep a kid busy on their birthday, it’s with presents! Apart from the presents from the parents, we also had a pile of those sent over by the relatives. What we did – was to give out each present gradually, so that the child is busy at least 10 minutes at a time – a kind of Adventkalendar approach. The gifts kept her busy well into the evening.
