Childrens Parties

It's Party time at the Mansion & Garden, Port Lympne Wild Animal Park

For a tailored party to remember, book a fun filled adventure on the wild side at Port Lympne Wild Animal Park, the perfect venue to make the event really special. 

Our Hospitality and Event co-ordinator is here to work with you to ensure you have a fun filled day, but we recommend that you all go out on Safari in the park and then arrive at the Mansion for 1.45 for a 2:00pm party in the Glynn Philpot room.  The room has wooden floors so no one is worried if something gets spilled.  At 2.50 in the afternoon the group can make their way to the Palace of the Apes to watch the animals being fed and then back to the Mansion for the cutting of the birthday cake. 

We have found that the best way to make sure that the food is enjoyed is not to make too many choices. Here is a list of children's party food that we have found to be successful i.e. eaten.

Birthday finger lunch includes:

• A selection of fresh vegetables that will include cherry tomatoes, carrot and cucumber batons
• Crisps (placed in a big bowl to let the children help themselves)
• Finger Fun Bites includes:
• A selection of finger sandwiches
• Yummy cheese potato wedges
• Homemade cheese rolls
• Sticky sausages
• Mini burgers
• Mini fish fingers (goujons)
• A selection of fruit that will include seedless Grapes, Melon and Apple slices
• Cupcakes and cookies

Squash and water is provided throughout the party

We can supply balloons and a CD player but what to play is down to you as you know best what the children like to hear or dance to.

Please ask about personalised cakes made to order, and Goodie bags which can include for example; streamers and animal face masks, just let us know how much you want to spend per bag.

We very much welcome fancy dress especially wild animals!

Here's what some of our party guests thought:

"A fantastic party.  Attention to detail was excellent, nothing was too much trouble.  Staff were very professional and attentive.  The food was out of this world!  Beautifully presented and very tasty.  It was a truly wonderful day, it could not have gone any better and surpassed our expectations.  I had so many parents say that the party was briliant and one of the best parties that their children have ever been to!  The party boxes went down a treat - especially the t-shirts.  I would definitely recommend this to my friends."

" The day would not have been special without your exceptional service and facilities.  All our friends thoroughly enjoyed the day out, and this includes the senior citizens in the party as well (who, to be honest, we were more apprehensive about than the toddlers!).  Some even expressed positive surprise at the cost - there was genuine belief that this was true value for money for organising any gathering. We hope that this translates to future business for you.

Best of all, we felt very good that we spent money at a place that did something good and that is reasonably close to our hearts too, i.e. caring for endangered species of animals.  We hope that when our son grows up and sees that there are still Siberian tigers, gorillas, and black rhinos roaming the wild, and learns that Port Lympne had a part to play in this, he will look back at his 1st birthday photos and feel good about it all!"
