Yes, we’ve even got the invites covered. Download our free party invitations, share them with your guests, and get everyone excited for their big day in the trees.
Don’t forget: supervising adults will also need to complete the risk acknowledgement form in advance. Sending it over with the invite helps keep things running smoothly on the day, so you can focus on the fun.
Of course! We would love to help you celebrate. You can book your party activity online. There's even an option to add party bags which will be ready for you to collect on arrival or when you finish your adventure. If there are not enough spaces available in one session, please book more spaces in the subsequent session and you will then be able to go round the course together.

If you are booking Treetop Adventure or Treetop Adventure Plus your party will be in the trees for 1 hour, but we recommend allowing up to 2 hours to include the harnessing, safety brief and certificate collection. If you have a Nets Adventure booking then you will be on the Nets for 2 hours.
We don't have a minimum or maximum number of people you can invite for a birthday party! It mostly depends on the capacity of the timeslots you wish to book and the availability of your chosen site. If your group size is larger than the capacity of your chosen timeslot, please send us an email at [email protected] with your enquiry and our customer care team can look into this for you.
Parking fees are not included in birthday party bookings as the parking is determined by the landowner of the site, not Go Ape.
Go Ape is an excellent wet weather activity. Our courses are substantially sheltered from rain and wind by the trees themselves so as long as you're appropriately dressed for the weather you should still have a great day. The course remains open in all weathers, except thick ice, thunderstorms and gales. Rain makes the course muddier than usual which can add to the fun, but you might want dry clothes to change into for the journey home.
If we have to close for unsafe weather conditions, we will contact you to reschedule your adventure or offer a refund. If the weather is unsafe on the day we will update social media at the earliest opportunity to try and inform people before they leave home. We will also set about calling every customer with a booking, so please leave your contact number when making a new booking.
Supervision rules and participant restrictions vary depending on the adventure you choose and the Go Ape location. Check out our?Locations?page and click through to the site you wish to visit. Then when you click through on your chosen adventure you'll find the information you need.
Your privacy is important to us. We take great care with how we collect, store and use your personal information and will not share or transfer your personal information without prior consent except as set out in our Privacy Notice.
