5 reasons Classic Skating is the best birthday party venue in Utah
It’s birthday party time! Save yourself the stress of trying to entertain 10 little kids at your home. Instead, check out Classic Skating. It’s the perfect place for birthday parties and won’t break the bank either. By the way, this isn’t a sponsored post. This is just one mom helping out another. So check it out.
Alright, so I’ve thrown quite a few birthday parties in my day. While it can be fun to host, it’s exhausting and ends up being just as expensive as throwing a party at a venue. So, I did some research and compared prices. Classic Skating came out the clear leader on birthday party venues and here’s why:
Affordable
There are lots of places to host a birthday party in Utah however, Classic Skating definitely is the least expensive. Their cheapest package is only $85 for up to 8 people. That’s just $10 per kid! Plus to can sign up to bring less than 8 people and you save even more money. The only other venue that I could find that is comparable in price is Nickelcade which is also a good option but is just mainly arcades. Here’s a breakdown of costs for the base packages at other birthday venues in Utah. I just pulled these off their website and prices are of course subject to change.
- Kangaroo Zoo: $10.95 per kid (9 child minimum)
- Jack and Jill Lanes: $12 per person
- Boondocks: $16 per person (6 child minimum)
- Thanksgiving Point: $175 for up to 10 people (must book 2 weeks in advance)
- Airborne Sports: $200 for up to 10 jumpers
- Painter’s Pallette: $150 for up to 8 kids
- This is the place Heritage Park: $25 per person (10 person minimum)
- Hogle Zoo: $285 (up to 15 guests)
Lots and lots of activities
Classic Skating in Orem has so many activities so you don’t have to try to entertain 10 kids for two hours. I upgraded to their Silver Package which included all of the activities at that venue for just a few more dollars per person. Here’s the activities it included:
- Skating + rental
- Bouncing
- Climbing
- Arcade (30 tokens)
- Laser Tag (1 game)
Easy to book
I procrastinated planning my five-year-old’s birthday until the last minute. So, I was worried that I wasn’t going to be able to find a venue. I was relieved, however, when I was able to reserve a party the night before! All of it can be done online and it was super easy. I would recommend booking a party for a weeknight instead of a Saturday. It is a lot less crowded and hectic.
Tons of extra perks
Aside from all of the activities that are included in your birthday party, Classic Skating includes a bunch of fun extras. After all, it’s the little things that make your party go from fun to amazing. Here’s are the extras that are included in EVERY package at Classic:
- Reserved party table for 2 hours
- Place settings and table cover (all you have to do is bring the cake)
- Bouquet of balloons (3)
- Pro party host for 2 hours
- Unlimited drinks for 2 hours (this is a hit with the kids)
- Cup of soft serve ice cream
- 45 seconds in prize cube, 1 spin on prize wheel and giant birthday card for the birthday child
If you do the Silver or Gold Package, the birthday child gets a free t-shirts and one free month of skating! I couldn’t believe all the fun stuff they give you. It was awesome!
It seems like every year, we end up just booking our birthday party at Classic Skating. The party host is always so friendly and the kids have so much fun every time. We’ve done both the Bronze and Silver Packages and couldn’t have been happier. What birthday party venues are your favorite? Leave your comments below.
