PLANNING TIPS

Party Times

Our birthday parties take place on weekdays and weekends.  Weekend parties are especially popular, and these time slots tend to fill up quickly. We recommend booking two months in advance to secure your date and time. 

Parties begin at 9am, and the last time slot is at 5pm. Please note that limited time slots are available for our exclusive Imagination Run Wild party for preschoolers.

Additional Party Guests (Adults or Children)

Our birthday party package includes participation and food service for 20 people, of which a minimum of five adults is required. The first five additional adults are welcome free of charge.  All other additional party attendees are counted as additional guests and will be charged at the following rates up to a maximum of 30 people:

$25 for each additional child includes:

  • Participation in the themed activities and educational program led by our Party Hosts
  • Food and beverage at the party
  • Party favor
  • Museum admission

$10 for each additional adult includes:

  • Participation in the themed activities and education program led by our Party Hosts
  • Museum admission

Please note that any party exceeding the maximum count of 30 people is considered a special event and requires additional staff and an alternate venue in the Museum.  Should your party include more than 30 people, please call our Special Events and Space Rental Manager, at (718) 735-4400 x127, to discuss your event needs and space requirements.
