The best Edmonton venues for kids’ birthday parties
Ahh, birthdays. It’s the most important day of the year regardless of whether you’re five years old or 95. We all remember handing out our birthday party invitations to our friends at school, and trying to have the coolest party in class. Why not consider these venues for your kids’ next party? You’ll be sure to be the coolest parent!

LaunchPad Trampoline Park
6142 50 St NW, Edmonton AB T6B 2N7This is quite literally a giant room made of trampolines and there’s another area, “The Pit,” that is filled with big foam blocks the kids can just jump into.

Monster Mini Golf
