Climbing Birthday Parties

Looking for a birthday party that’s active, exciting and seriously fun? Our climbing parties are designed to give kids an unforgettable experience – whether it’s their first time on the wall or they’re already little pros.

Led by friendly, experienced instructors, these sessions are full of climbing, games and laughter – a brilliant way to celebrate in a social and supportive setting.

Party room

Want to keep the party going? We have a private space which can be hired for food and post-climb celebrations. You’re welcome to bring your own cake or let us look after the food.

We offer a Party Food Package for up to 12 participants (£10 per child) and a Party Snack Package for up to 15 (£6.50 per child).  If you plan to bring your own food or order food through us, please make sure to select the “Party Room” option when booking. If you need fewer food or snack packages than shown during booking, please complete your party booking as normal and then email us at glasgow@ with your request. We’ll make sure your slot is secured and arrange for food payment on the day of the party.

“The instructors were amazing – so friendly and encouraging with all the kids. Everything was really well organised and the children had the best time. We’ll definitely be back!” – Birthday party parent

Booking

Book a party

If you’re booking a birthday party but don’t yet have all participant names, just book for one child (the birthday child) – we’ll ask for the full list later.

N.B. We may be able to accommodate other days and times and larger groups. If you have any questions or special requests, get in touch and we’ll be happy to help. Contact glasgow@theclimbingacademy.com.

Getting ready

What to wear?

Comfort is key – we recommend non-restrictive clothing like leggings, tracksuits or t-shirts, with comfy trainers or plimsolls. Please avoid anything too loose or baggy. Bring layers you can adjust as you warm up.

party food

Celebrate in style

We have an excellent cafe on-site that can provide food to be eaten in the party room. You can choose from:

Birthday cake

This is a simple round cake with no custom/happy birthday decoration. TCA will not provide candles but you are welcome to bring your own for use in the party room. If you book a party cake, we’ll provide a Victoria Sponge unless you request something else. Other options – available with at least 7 days’ notice – include Chocolate Sponge, Millionaire’s Cake or Lemon & Blueberry. Just email us.
