Birthday venue that can accommodate 50 kids plus parents?

The party room gets too full for all the parents to cram in, but a lot of parents just went outside to the larger reception area. The actual recreational space is more than adequate. The St James could also accommodate that but again the party room will be tight. (I think the party rooms will be tight everywhere).

We had 40 kids at the Falls Church location - the room is quite large.

OP - for that large you need to find a community center hall - I don't know about DC, but in Arlington and Fairfax Counties, you can rent bounce houses directly from the community center.

Do you have twins, OP?

You don’t have to invite everyone.

Yes, twins and we want to invite both classes. Thank you for all the suggestions! I will look into these

Just know not everyone will come and both parents definitely won’t come.

Twin mom here. OP, not everyone will show up.We invited only the boys from each class and out of 30, only 20 showed up. And at this age, you could make it a drop off. If you don't want siblings, mention on your evite or you will have to factor in that head count too.

As to your venue question, try Badlands in Rockville.

That number at that age is sheer insanity. I can't decide if I would skip the mayhem or show up with popcorn to watch....

IMO you are setting a bad precedent but hey, you do you

Badlands is a great party venue. Just an FYI, the party package includes 12 children and 12 adults. Each additional child is $22.50/adult is $5.00. OP, if you’re interested in spending that kind of money for a kids b-day party, go for it!

Most of the parents stay for our large parties. But, we invite them and provide food.

Not a big deal at all.

Magic Ground in NW DC - you can rent it out for that many. Maybe renting out the new The Lane in Ivy City? It opens soon.

Rent a space at a park with a covered pavilion (Arlington is easy) and get Tom's Laser Tag to entertain the kids while parents eat and drink. We did this years ago and had so much fun.

Movie theatre party?

Madison Manor community center in Arlington can accommodate that. They have a huge moon bounce room and a huge party room.
