Halloween Party Add-On Ideas Perfect for Play Cafés

Boost Halloween party bookings at your play café with creative add-ons like snack packs, themed décor, and face painting.


Halloween is one of the most exciting times of year for families, and for your play café, it’s the perfect opportunity to boost revenue and delight your guests. Parents are already searching for fun, safe, and creative ways to celebrate. By offering Halloween party add-ons, you can turn every party into a spook-tacular experience while also increasing your bottom line. 

Halloween Party Add-On Ideas Perfect for Play Cafés 

Party add-ons aren’t just “extras”, they’re upsell opportunities that make your parties stand out. A well-placed add-on creates a more memorable guest experience and saves parents time by bundling everything they need in one booking. Plus, themed upsells are the perfect way to tie into seasonal excitement like Halloween. 

Creative Add-On Ideas for Halloween Parties:

Snack Packs with a Spooky Twist 

Families love convenient food options. Offer pre-packed “Halloween Snack Packs” featuring treats like: 

  • Pumpkin-shaped cookies 
  • Orange and black popcorn 
  • Juice boxes wrapped like mummies 
  • Candy corn or chocolate minis 

Pro tip: Create a few variations (sweet vs. savory) so parents can choose the perfect option for their group. 

Themed Décor Packages 

Make decorating easy for parents with Halloween-themed party décor add-ons. Think: 

  • Orange and purple balloon clusters 
  • Tablecloths with spiderweb patterns 
  • Centerpieces with pumpkins or faux candles 
  • Themed paper plates, cups, and napkins 

Bundle décor into Basic, Deluxe, and Ultimate Halloween Packages so families can pick their level of festivity. 

Face Painting or Glitter Tattoos 

Kids love interactive fun! Hire a face painter (or train a staff member) to offer quick designs such as: 

  • Ghosts and pumpkins 
  • Black cats 
  • Glow-in-the-dark glitter bats 

For play cafés, this add-on is easy to manage and instantly adds a festive vibe. 

Costume Contest Prizes 

Encourage kids to dress up by including a mini costume contest in your party packages. Hand out small prizes like glow sticks, free arcade credits, or café coupons. This inexpensive add-on creates fun photo moments that parents will share online (hello, free marketing!). 

How to Sell More Add-Ons This Halloween 

  • Showcase online: Use your online booking system to highlight Halloween party add-ons with photos and clear descriptions. 
  • Bundle for ease: Parents are more likely to purchase when they can select a bundle instead of piecing items together. 
  • Upsell at checkout: Include themed upsells on your booking confirmation page and reminder emails. 

Final Thoughts 

Halloween is a golden opportunity for play cafés to boost revenue and guest satisfaction with family-friendly party add-ons. Whether it’s snack packs, spooky décor, or face painting, these upsells make parties more festive while making planning easier for parents.
