Kids’ birthday parties in Gloucester with a difference — explosions, potions, rockets and slime from only £150!

Looking for a kids’ party in Gloucester that isn’t another bouncy castle or soft play session? Fun Science Cheltenham runs hands-on science birthday parties right across the city — Quedgeley, Tuffley, Abbeymead, Barnwood, Hucclecote, Longlevens, Churchdown and Brockworth — and the villages around it. Gloucester is just down the road from our Cheltenham base, well inside our included travel area, so there is no extra travel charge.

Our children’s entertainers hold Enhanced DBS checks, £5 million public liability insurance and paediatric first aid qualifications. We bring every bit of kit (mats included, so no need to worry about mess), run the experiments, and handle the clean-up — you just enjoy the wide eyes and hair-raising moments.

Check your date: call 07894 440519 or email cheltenham@fun-science.org.uk — weekend slots go fast.

Where in Gloucester Can We Run Your Party?

Anywhere you like. Most Gloucester parties happen in church halls, village halls and community centres — or at home, which works brilliantly for the smaller packages. We regularly run parties and school science workshops across Gloucester and the wider county, so we can advise on the space each package needs: Fantastic Physics wants outdoor room for its rocket launch, while Crazy Chemical Celebration fits in an average living room.
