Birthday Party Policies and Procedures

Below are some important things to know when planning your birthday party with us:

Catering is an additional cost and must be selected from the Subway party menu. However, you are welcome to bring your own cake! Please review the menu by clicking here: Subway Birthday Party Menu

Food and beverages are not permitted in the museum galleries and must be kept in the party room at all times. We do not allow confetti, glitter or piñatas and tape is not permitted on the walls or doors.

Birthday parties are scheduled for Saturdays and Sundays only. We encourage you to please schedule your party early as we fill-up quickly.

Reservations require a 50% deposit at the time of booking. Final payment and party menu selections from Subway are due 10 business days before your scheduled party. Prices are subject to change without notice.

Cancellations will not be refunded. If a cancellation occurs two weeks prior to the date of the party, payments will be converted to MCM Bucks. MCM Bucks are good for one year from the date of issuance and may be applied to our classes, camps, memberships and birthday parties. Cancellations that occur less than two weeks before the party are not eligible for MCM Bucks.

Parking fees are not included in your birthday package. The Miami Parking Authority parking lot is located on the east side of the Miami Children’s Museum, with 343 spaces, for patrons and visitors. For your convenience, there are two automated pay stations in the lot and one pay station in the MCM lobby. Rates are $1 per hour, seven days a week. For more information please call 305-373-6789 or visit the Miami Parking Authority.
