KZAM Next Generation Party Centers

My daughter had her 8^th birthday party here. She and her friends had an absolute blast. The two teenagers that were assigned to our party were very energetic and super sweet. The dance party was an absolute hit. It’s only 100 minutes so it is over fairly quickly.
However I kinda felt rushed and the lady in the front desk was not friendly at all. She kinda looked like we were bothering her. My daughter loved it. Which is why I gave 3 stars but I didn’t feel like it was worth it. They also take a bunch of photos and ask you to buy them at the end. This is odd because they print all the pictures and you feel kinda obligated to buy because you know I was thinking what are they going to do with my daughters pictures? I didn’t buy them all. Overall ok. I may not come here again.

We held my daughter’s 4 birthday party here. It was great! The hostess, dj and staff were fantastic. My daughter enjoyed the dj and dancing the most but all rooms were fun. She ran up to us during the party and said «I love my party!»

We chose KZAM for my son’s 4^th birthday party because if we had to go to another party at Bounce U we were going to lose our minds. It turns out KZAM was a pretty good choice and relatively affordable. Key word being «relatively». I’m not sure how or when it got to be acceptable for kid’s 2 hour long birthday parties to run upwards of a grand, but we certainly we’re about to book somewhere with prices that steep, so KZAM offered a «relatively» reasonable package that met our needs, seemed clean and fun and done deal.
The most important thing is, the kids had an total blast. I heard more than one little friend run up to his or her parents during the party and beg to have their own party there. As long as the kids are happy, little else matters. The ball pit/​crazed play area they have for their first «station» was absolutely the best part. All the foam balls flying all over the place, stuff to climb on and slide down… it was awesome. The second room we moved into with the DJ and gaga pit was less of a hit with our group of kids, probably because my son was a little shy out of the gate and didn’t really specify what he would like to do in there. We ended up with some silly dancing, and exhaustingly long game of limbo and some of the parents being uncomfortable pulled in to join all the action. I could have done without being forced to limbo for 10 minutes, but I tried to put on a brave face :)
The pizza was pretty decent, the room was spotless and appropriately decorated. The whole place is immaculate, really, which is nice. The photographer took some great shots of the kids too, which I certainly appreciated. Our party hosts were fantastic! So much so that my sister in law who actually runs a summer camp was nudging me and saying she wanted to recruit them to be counselors. They seemed like they were having a great time with the kids and the kids with them. They were actually PLAYING with the kids, not just supervising. I can’t say enough how nice that was.
Handout of the party favors at the end of the party was seamless and payment of the balance was easy as pie. I’m not sure if it was the book keeper or the owner of the facility who took our final payment but she definitely wasn’t the friendliest person. Just a warning, don’t expect a warm goodbye from her. Strange for a kid’s party place, but maybe that’s why she stays in the office?
I think I speak for the fam when I say we’d recommend KZAM to anyone looking to throw a party somehwere a little different for their child. The kids had a lot of fun.

My daughter had a blast at this function. The hosts were friendly and nice but everything here is ON TIME since there are parties booked one after another. Didn’t feel hurried, in fact all the adults were standing around watching. After the initial, wow look at the kids. We were kind of bored sitting around waiting for the kids to be herded into the next room. The DJ room was ok. Kids line danced and did some games but this was my least favorite. Overall, great for a quick party. You’re in and then out. Quick and painless.

I have been to this place 3 times and all visit has been great. The staff are outgoing and get the party moving. There is an MC and DJ to run the party. They are outgoing and know how to entertain the kids. All kids always enjoy the party. I highly recommended for a birthday event.

We just had our son’s 4^th birthday party there this weekend. It was pretty terrific! The staff kept a closeful eye on all the kids throughout the time in the main gym area. I liked that there was a lot of staff working the party. As we moved into the 2^nd room, they allowed us (the parents of the birthday boy and his brother) to enter first where they took a few family photos – a nice touch. As the party came into this 2^nd room, they displayed a photo montage of our son on a HUGE screen. They also displayed pics of his favorite characters (Disney/​Superheroes/​Favorite movies, etc) within the photo montage. The activities in this room included: freeze dance, Mario dance party, parachute, limbo, etc). The DJ and MC were awesome and kept all the kids engaged and having fun! Afterward the kids were hungry and worn out which means success to me! But before heading into the pizza area, they brought out the cake and sang happy birthday. I liked this because it gave time to take photos and allowed everyone to be present. Usually at these parties they bring out the cake and sing after the pizza but a few kids are in the bathroom or sometimes people have to leave a bit early. Wherever they order the pizza from was delicious. I recommend some grandma pies for the adults. Also, a lot of parents (including myself) were very impressed with how clean the place is… especially the bathrooms. In addition, all the foam ball are cleaned routinely too.
The only «slight» drawback was that one of the ball machines in the main gym area was not working. This machine happened to be one that was a nice, low height for some of our smaller guests to operate :(
Now we are booking our oldest son’s 6^th birthday there!

After going to check out the place before booking the party, the owners seemed accomodating, but that was far from the truth. On the day of my party — the kids loved playing in the ball area, but when they went to the second room — the whole idea of a «mummy wrap» was the stupidest thing I’ve ever seen. It seemed like a desparate attempt to waste 40 mins away. Not only was it the biggest waste of toilet paper, but all the kids spent time trying to uneventfully wrap themselves up and then broke out of it in 1 sec. big deal. The whole second room is just a waste of time and after spending $ 400+ for 1 ½ hr party — you would think they could offer something a little bit more than that.
When we finally were out of that room, we started to eat and they brought out the cake on a cart that was so tall my child couldn’t even blow out the candles on the cake! The girl there didn’t even attempt to help in the situation and I ended up having to pick up my child to blow out the candles. They didn’t even offer to give us an opportunity to take a picture with my child before they tried to whisk away with the cake and try to shoo us out the door.
The whole setup is horrible and awkward. I’ve had a lot of parties at Pump it Up and Bounce U and they are 10x more professional and the flow of the party is accomodating and nice. The girls working the parties at those places are very professional and give you photo ops and are all very pleasant. This place escorts you to a «room» which consists of two chairs and puts all your goodie bags on the floor and tells your guests to pick them up on their way out.
Upon time to pay, I wasn’t told that I had to bring cash for a tip to the people that worked the party. Nowhere in the contract did it say that and I was not told this beforehand. I told them that every other party place I had been to would take the tip on my credit card. They refused. Who carries that much cash on them on a moment’s notice? I told them that I wanted to tip the workers as they did all the «work» for the party and if they wouldn’t allow me to use my credit card to do so I couldn’t tip them. They shrugged their shoulders and didn’t care.
In the end — even though the ball part of this place seems fun — the owners left me with such a bad taste in my mouth that I have told all of my friends to never book their party here. They are just here for your money. And that’s it. Will never go back here again. And they have only been around for a few months — you would think they would be trying to get customers — not make them all feel unwelcome.
