FAQs
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: How far in advanced do I have to book my party?
A: All parties must be booked two weeks in advanced! I.e., if you are applying for a party, we will not be able to book you for the upcoming weekend or the one after that.
Q: Can I call instead of applying online?
A: The short answer is no, you unfortunately cannot. The long answer is that in order to book your party, we need the information that you provide in your application. Online applications have priority for dates in the order of which they are put in. So, the sooner you apply, the better!
Q: I put in my application, what next?
A: Parties are booked TUESDAY-FRIDAY. We will try to reach out within 48 business hours. Depending on the number of applications, this may take longer. (if you put in an application after 12pm on a Friday, you will receive a call on the following Tuesday-Wednesday)
Q: Can I show up early to my party to decorate?
A: You and your party guests do not need to arrive until your scheduled time. At this point we will bring you to the room to decorate, and send your guests off to play! (For more detailed information, read the “Next Steps” dropdown above)
