The Most Fun Birthday Party in Belfast (Without the Stress)

Last updated on April 28th, 2026 at 03:10 pm

If you’re planning a birthday party and want something more exciting than the usual mini-golf or bowling, oh, do we have a birthday treat for you. Put down the bunting, ditch the paper hats, and tell everyone coming to the party they’re about to get put behind bars (figuratively, of course).

Swap party bags for the chance to gloat and give them a birthday they’ll be talking about all year at Prison Island Belfast (or step into the spotlight with Quiz Boxing).

Our birthday party packages are designed for ages 9–15, with a clear on-the-day structure, and plenty of time for the birthday moment in your private party room.

Stress-Free Planning for Parents

No complicated add-ons. No guessing what happens when you arrive. Just pick your activity, bring the kids, and we’ll take it from there.
Our standard birthday party packages include:

  • 1 hour of gameplay (Prison Island)
    • We have different packages highlighted below
  • 45 minutes in a private party room afterwards
  • Domino’s personal pizza (7″, 4 slices) plus drinks
  • A gift for the birthday kid (because it’s their day)

What A Birthday Visit Looks Like

Arrive about 15–20 minutes early so everyone’s checked in and ready to go. We’ll get you welcomed at reception, split the group into teams, and give a quick briefing so the group know exactly how it works.

Then it’s game time. In Prison Island, teams take on 31 challenge cells (some physical, some mental, and some pure chaos). You tap in and out of each cell to start the challenge, rack up points, and once you find your favourites, you can replay them to boost your score on the live leaderboards.

In Quiz Boxing, they’ll battle it out in a proper game-show arena. Adults can step up to the Game Show Arena Podium, too, and compete against the kids!. (16 people max per arena).

After the activity, you’ll head to your party room for 45 minutes of pizza, drinks, and the big “happy birthday” moment. You’re welcome to bring your own cake and decorations to make it feel more personal.

Birthday Party Packages & Pricing

We offer different birthday packages for the type of party you’re after. You choose your activity, pick your slot, and we’ll handle the rest. Here’s what’s available:

Prison Island Birthday Package (up to 16 players)

  • Standard (1 hour): £25.00 per child
  • Extended (1.5 hours): £31.50 per child
  • Adults (no food): £21.00 (Standard) | £28.00 (Extended)

Quiz Boxing Birthday Package (up to 16 players per arena)

  • Standard (1 hour): £25.00 per child
  • Adults (no food): £20.00

With Quiz Boxing, you can choose the categories before you’re in the arena. For example, if the party is full of movie buffs, we can adapt the questions. Or, the party can go full themed and choose our 100% Taylor Swift Quiz or Harry Potter  Quiz with a whole hour of quizarding!

Both party packages include Domino’s personal pizza and drinks for the kids. If you’ve got dietary requirements or need to tweak something, just tell us when booking, and we’ll do our best to help.

We also have ice cream available in 3 flavours (vanilla/honeycomb/cookies & cream) if you want some sweet treats on the table too.

 

Adults, Supervision & Age Guidance

We want everyone to have as much fun as possible while staying safe, so it is important to know the following:

  • Ages: Birthday parties are aimed at ages 9–15. If there are younger kids (6–8), they can still play Prison Island, but will need an adult on their team.
  • Adults can join in: Yes, parents can absolutely play (and they very often form their own team and take it far too seriously). If adults want to get involved, they’ll need a ticket.
  • Supervision: Kids aged 9+ don’t need an adult on their team, but an adult must remain on site.

What to Know Before You Go

  • Easy arrival: aim for 15–20 minutes early so you get the full time having fun.
  • Parking: We have on-site parking.
  • Lockers: free lockers are available—ideal for phones and bags.
  • What to wear: comfortable clothes and footwear, as kids will be moving around a lot.
  • Dietary requirements: please let us know in advance, and we’ll help where we can.

Birthday Parties for the Big Kids, Too (16+)

Who says the little ones get all the fun? If you’re planning a birthday for someone aged 16+, you can book Prison Island as a group and keep it competitive.

If you want something more personalised for teens, Quiz Boxing is a brilliant shout for a surprise party with a more customised feel. And for 18+ groups, you can level it up with Axe Yard, our fully interactive, real-axe-throwing experience where you choose the games and crank the music.

 

How to Book a Birthday Party

Book as early as you can, especially for Sunday parties, as we only run a limited number of party slots each day. If you’d like extra time in the party room, ask when booking, and we’ll tell you what’s possible (it depends on the day and how tight the turnaround is).

Use the booking link here to choose your date and party package, or phone, and we’ll sort everything out.

Everything You Need to Know  (Birthday Parties FAQ)

 

Is the experience standardised?
Yes, there’s a clear structure on the day, so everything runs smoothly. You’ll do your activity first, then finish with 45 minutes in the party room.

Is the food included / can we make changes?
Kids’ packages include Domino’s personal pizza and drinks. If you’ve got dietary requirements, let us know, and we’ll see what we can do.

Do you provide cake/decorations?
You’re welcome to bring your own cake and decorations. With 45 minutes in the party room, there’s loads of time for candles, photos, and the big “happy birthday!”

What time should we arrive?
Getting everyone here 15–20 minutes early is ideal, so your full group is ready to start on time.

Can parents join in?
Absolutely. Parents can play too (and often end up on their own team). Kids aged 9+ don’t need an adult on their team, but an adult must remain on site.

Can we use the party room longer than 45 minutes?
Just ask when booking, and we’ll let you know if it’s possible. The time is usually capped to allow for clean-up for the next party.
