“Best party in the universe!” - The McKeowen Family

Have an out of this world birthday party at CIT Blackrock Castle Observatory! This year, give the kids an action-packed, fun-filled birthday unlike any other.

Our astronomers and scientists will create an hour long, age-appropriate workshop based on space, aliens or the Solar System exclusively for your guests.

The workshop is followed by a guided visit to the award winning interactive exhibit Cosmos at the Castle, complete with activities like the Comet Chaser and the Pan Galactic Station!

Every birthday party includes:

  • Hour long, hands-on custom workshop exclusively for your party
  • Guided visit to the award winning Cosmos at the Castle, an interactive exhibit for all children
  • Exclusive use of the workshop room for presents, cake and ice cream!

  • Cost: €10.00 per child; minimum booking requirement of 10 children.
  • Meals: Birthday party meals from the Castle Cafe cost an additional €6.00 per child (payable to the Castle Cafe) and include chicken nuggets, chips or pizza with squash. Alternatively, you are more than welcome to bring in your own food which the kids can eat in the classroom.  Please note: Food can not be brought in from a 3rd party vendor
