The kids party industry remains robust even in a tough economic climate as parents continue to make the once a year event as special as possible for their children.

Bish Bash Birthdays has created the perfect party format that ticks all the boxes for both parents and kids. They offer the very best in entertainment - an acclaimed assortment of age appropriate activities. Bish Bash specialise in themed parties and can adapt their party plans to ANY theme the birthday child would like. This personal touch has set them apart from the competition and business is booming!

In September, the first Bish Bash Birthdays franchises were launched with great success. The next candidates are now invited to apply. There's a very special rate of just £1995 offered for any franchisees who join the company before the end of 2012.

Party bookings are typically 11am-1pm and 3pm-5pm on weekends and only a few hours a week is needed for admin and marketing (at home). In North London they charge £195 per 2 hour party with the potential to earn over £700 per weekend.
