When people find out I grew up in a theme park because it was my family business, they often ask me expectantly: Did you have the COOLEST birthdays?!
The answer is sometimes.
My sister and I were born in September and October, respectively, so we “got to” share our birthday party every year. So yes, we had a few birthdays at Holiday World (see exhibit A: adorable photo from party with all of us hugging Holidog circa early 1990s).
No. We didn’t get to run like crazy through a closed theme park.
No. We didn’t get to take prizes from the games or the shops.
Mostly there was just cake and pizza and Holidog.
As we built Santa’s Merry Marketplace, we thought it might be nice to include a space for parties, so kids could throw some epic birthdays that surpass the ones I shared with my sister because–let’s be honest– the park is way cooler now than it was in the 1990s.
Interested in throwing an epic birthday party?
Now, we have party rooms available to maximize the coolness of a kid’s party at Holiday World. Here’s what you’ll need to know:
- The rooms are FREE for Pizza Parties
- We have two party packages available, including the option of an all-you-can-eat buffet
- All birthday packages include breadsticks, dipping sauce, cookies, and free unlimited soft drinks
- Salads can be added onto your package
- Parties are available for groups between 15 and 49 Guests
You can also add on some other perks:
- ¼ Sheet cake with Holiday World logo
- Face painting
- Caricatures
These birthday parties are putting my childhood ones to shame (sorry, Mom!).

Hello! Last year was my families very first time visiting Holiday World and it quickly became our favorite family destination as we ended up coming twice over the Summer from St. Louis. We are really looking forward to our visits this summer and with our sons having their 3rd and 4th birthdays in July we are hoping to learn more about your Holiday World birthday Parties!!
