Birthday Parties in Kent: Celebrate with Fun at Diggerland

Are you planning a special celebration and searching for a unique idea? At Diggerland, we love nothing more than helping families create amazing memories together. If you’re looking for birthday parties in Kent, our park in Strood is the perfect choice for a day filled with laughter, excitement and unforgettable experiences.

Celebrate at Diggerland UK Theme Park

Our Kent park in Strood gives children and adults the chance to ride, drive and operate real construction machinery in a safe, fun environment. Diggerland is the only theme park in the UK where you can enjoy this one-of-a-kind experience. With 20 rides and drives on offer, there is truly something here for everyone. 

Children can take control of a mini digger, soar high on the Skyshuttle or race around in Go-Karts. Parents and older guests can join in on the bigger machines. For younger children, our indoor soft play zone is always a hit, packed with slides and ball pits. As it is indoors, the party can go ahead whatever the weather. We like to think we really do offer “buckets of fun for everyone,” and we see it on the smiling faces of our guests every day.

Why Choose Us for Birthday Parties in Kent?

We know just how important it is to make a birthday celebration stand out, and that is exactly what we do at Diggerland. Families tell us time and again that the real magic is the uniqueness of the experience. Where else can children dig, drive and explore using real machines on their big day? The thrill of climbing into a digger or racing in a go-kart is something children will be talking about long after the candles are blown out. 

Our parties also work brilliantly for mixed-age groups. Smaller children can enjoy the indoor play or gentler rides, while older kids and adults can get stuck into the bigger machinery. Parents love the fact that everyone is included, which makes for a stress-free day out. Even if the weather is unpredictable, our indoor play area means the fun never has to stop.

Party Rooms at Diggerland

To make your child’s day even more special, we provide a private party room for hire. The room is available for three hours in either a morning or afternoon slot. It comes furnished with tables, chairs and a fridge, and you are welcome to bring your own food, drinks and birthday cake. Having your own private space means you can decorate, relax away from the park for a while, and enjoy time together with your guests. It is the perfect spot for sharing cake, opening presents and celebrating in your own way. To find out more and make a booking, take a look at our Birthday Celebrations page.

How the Day Works

We strive to keep things simple when planning your big day. All you need to do is book admission tickets for your guests, then call us to add the hire of a party room if you would like that extra private space. On the day itself, many families start with time out in the park. The children can try out the rides, explore the machines and enjoy the thrill of operating real diggers. Once everyone has worked up an appetite, you can move into your party room to relax, enjoy some food, play games and sing “Happy Birthday.” Afterwards, there is usually time to head back into the park for more fun before the day comes to an end. It is a smooth and flexible way to celebrate, and we are always on hand to make sure things go to plan.

Tips for the Perfect Party

There are lots of little touches you can add to make your party at Diggerland extra special. Many families bring along digger-themed decorations to brighten up the party room and tie the day together. Others focus on capturing the magic with plenty of photos, especially of those unforgettable moments when the children are behind the wheel of a digger.

It also helps to plan for different age groups, so everyone enjoys the rides best suited to them. Some parents prepare small party bags to hand out at the end of the day, giving each child a reminder of their adventure at Diggerland. Whatever extras you include, our team is always happy to support and make your day run smoothly.

Why Our Parties Stand Out

When it comes to birthday parties in Kent, we believe we offer something truly unique. Children are not just watching the action, they are part of it. That sense of involvement is what makes the experience so exciting. Parents tell us they love the way the whole family can join in. Because we provide good facilities, free parking and a convenient Strood location, it is easy to relax and enjoy the celebration. The combination of thrills, hands-on fun and a private party room makes a Diggerland birthday stand out from the rest.
