MAIN Party Ideas Party Locations Montana Kids Party Venues

With the growing popularity of kids party venues, Montana is joining the rest of the USA in recognizing that partying is big business, so take advantage of family-friendly venues that offer savings in time and planning.

If you don't have a professional party venue near you, think outside the party box by looking around for neighborhood associations, clubs, historic museums or indoor play areas that may offer discounted member rates or rooms for a nominal fee (or free of charge!)

Also contact public parks or playgrounds, petting zoos, local bowling alleys or kids gym or play centers - even volunteer firehouses - that also may space for families to party hearty.

If hiring a full-fledged party venue location in bigger cities like Billings or Missoula, ask friends or neighbors for their recommendations, or surf the Web (see below). One you've decided on the venue, make sure you ask questions and learn the details to avoid any sudden disappointments on the big day.

Be clear about all the costs involved, what the minimum and maximum number of kids you may invite, or what else may be included in a complete party package.

Do they provide party favors, goodie bags or other extras? Can you bring in your own cake or decorations to save on costs? If you opt for an outside location, are there bathroom facilities nearby? (Also, make sure there is a "Plan B" ready if you decide to plan your party outdoors.)

Whatever you decide, there's nothing like showing up at your next kids birthday party and taking part in the celebration without the setup or clean-up! It's no wonder more families throughout the state are opting to no-stress, no-mess kids parties away from home.

Have fun!
