Popular 30th Birthday Celebration Ideas

  • Wine tasting – Is sipping wine your type of fun? Then how about expanding your palate? Book a wine bar or go to wine-tasting classes hosted by a professional sommelier! 
  • Cooking class – Learning practical new skills is a fantastic way to kick off a new decade, especially if your kitchen skills could use a little sharpening. From mastering pasta-making to perfecting sushi rolls, you have plenty of exciting options. 
  • Karaoke party – Cheesy tunes are guaranteed to amp up the fun! If you’re a fan of singing in the shower, hiring a karaoke bar for your 30th birthday will give you a chance to belt out some tunes with friends.. 
  • BBQ party – A laid-back grill party is always a hit in summer! To add some funky vibes, consider hiring a beer garden that offers a unique ambience and a wide selection of beers.

  • Themed party – Having a theme will give a personal touch to the celebration. And the best thing about themes is the flexibility: you can build one based on the things you love! For example, if you’re an MCU geek, you can host a superheroes birthday party, and if you love perfume, you can organise an elegant Chanel No. 30 soiree. The options are pretty endless, so make sure to pick something that is all about you!  
  • Sunset river cruise – Every Londoner should experience a river cruise along the Thames at least once in their lifetime! Book a dinner cruise or a party boat and check partying on a yacht off your bucket list!

Crafting the Perfect 30th Birthday Party Itinerary

Planning a special birthday party in London requires some creativity, personal touches, and strategic planning. So we’re here to show you how to curate an unforgettable 30th birthday bash.

Pre-Party Warm-Up:

  • Time: Early Afternoon
  • Activity: Start with a relaxed pre-party activity that sets the tone for the day. Consider a private workshop, such as a cocktail making or painting class, allowing guests to mingle and get in the celebratory spirit. 

The Birthday Bash:

Time: Evening

  • Location: Select a 30th birthday party venue that aligns with the birthday person’s style. How about a chic rooftop bar for panoramic views of the city, an elegant private dining room, or a pub known for its lively atmosphere? London offers a multitude of options that can fit any idea you imagine.

Activities:

  • Welcome Drinks: Begin with a signature cocktail upon arrival, something that the birthday person will enjoy.
  • Memory Lane: Dedicate a moment to reminisce and celebrate their journey so far. A short, heartfelt video montage or a series of toasts from close friends and family can add emotional depth to the event.
  • Dinner and Dessert: Curate a menu that features favourite dishes or explores new culinary territories. Just make sure you accommodate any special dietary preferences. The cutting of a birthday cake can serve as the centrepiece of the evening!
  • Entertainment: Depending on the hired party venue and the celebrant's preferences, you can incorporate live music, a DJ, or a curated playlist to encourage dancing and revelry.

Late-Night Adventure:

  • Time: Post-Midnight
  • Activity: For guests who wish to continue the 30th birthday celebration, plan a late-night adventure. This could be a reserved booth in a trendy nightclub, a moonlit Thames river cruise, or an exclusive after-hours tour of a London landmark.

The Recovery Brunch:

  • Time: Late Morning
  • Location: Conclude the festivities with a laid-back recovery brunch in a serene setting, allowing guests to gather one last time and share stories from the night before. Opt for a venue with comforting foods, refreshing beverages, and perhaps an outdoor space to enjoy London’s scenery.

When booking a venue for a 30th birthday bash, make sure to consider:

  • The location – No matter if you’re looking for something in Central London, South London, or on the city’s outskirts, make sure the location is accessible via public transportation or car. 
  • The style of the venue – Are you after a local restaurant for a family dinner, a chic bar for cocktails with the girls or a laid-back garden? Choose a venue that matches your party’s style. 
  • Your budget - How much can you pay for the venue hire? Thoroughly check the offers and ask venue managers about every charge before signing the contract to avoid additional fees. 
  • Venue Capacity- Confirm that the venue has enough space for everyone to move comfortably. 
  • Entertainment options – Before booking, check if you can bring your vendors, like a DJ, live band, or open bar. Some venues have their own preferred vendors, while others may not have enough space.
  • Catering – Do you need a venue that can cater to special dietary requirements or allows external catering, etc.? Make sure to investigate your catering options as some venues, such as restaurants, may not allow you to hire an external caterer. 
  • A Plan B for bad weather conditions –  If you’re planning an outdoor bash in one of the gardens or rooftop terraces, this one’s for you! Ensure that the venue offers some alternatives, such as a roof or a tent and heaters in case of a sudden rain or temperature drop.

Booked Function Room at Islington Events Space | Public Space
4.2
I hosted my 30th birthday party for ~60 people at the Islington Function room and had a brilliant night! Susan, who I initially made the booking with, was a swift and detailed communicator. Once the booking was confirmed, she put me in touch with Sara, the event coordinator, who was there on the night of the party and helped me make all food and drink arrangements beforehand. Sara was incredible at the event! She worked tirelessly to ensure that things ran smoothly; from helping to set up the bar, and music system, to serving food from a pre-ordered menu, and all with a smile on her face. Luke, the CEO also offered a helping hand on the night! The whole team were very attentive, warm and friendly. The venue was already stunning, but it was extra special was to be able to decorate the room as I wished, and hire a DJ of my choice. I would absolutely recommend this venue.

I did my 30th birthday party with a bit over 50 people in the Colours Green Room and it could have not been better, we had an amazing night ! Communication with the venue ahead of the event was very smooth and they were very flexible and nice to accomodate the plan I had for the evening. On the night itself the venue manager and staff took care of everything, I didn't have to worry about a thing - from door security to the bar, to the technical setup for the DJ and to catering. Can highly recommend it for your party ! Thank you to the whole Colours team for making my birthday so special !

Both Lisa and Elina, the event space hosts were amazing throughout the process. They assisted with every detail, providing suggestions to meet our budget. They were both accommodating and flexible to our needs and requests throughout. Prior to the event they ensured all my question were answered and kept me updated on any developments. On the day, they assigned an event manager that enable us to set the room out how we discussed and accommodated any additional requests. I highly recommend the venue and could not thank Lisa and Elina enough.

Booked Basement at The Cutting Room

I actually had the ground floor to host my 30th birthday party at, but this was still perfect for what I wanted. I was able to create a playlist and play my own music. The room was set up exactly how I wanted it. I was able to put up decorations. The location was perfect for what I wanted and the value! If I have any future event, I'll be checking here 1st. The food was delicious - I chose food off the canapes menu and they didn't disappoint. I only ever heard positive things from my guests as well. I am so happy I stumbled across this venue to host my party.

Dimitri the event planner was so helpful and accommodating the whole way through. All of the rules and regulations were set out clearly from the first time we met and there was no messing around. The “white room” (pink room! Haha) was so beautiful and exactly what I wanted for my 30th. All of the staff were friendly and we just had the most amazing night from start to finish. He even made a slideshow for me that was displayed across the whole of the back wall. I would recommend everyone to have their party here.

Booked Martha's Bar at The Washington

Martha's Bar was the perfect setting for an intimate party of approximately 50 people; it had the privacy of it's own bar and everyone enjoyed the novelty of entering via bookcase! The pre-ordered food and drinks were great and prepared ready to be consumed as was early access to the venue which all helped for the smooth running of a memorable evening! Prior to the day, communications with the team at Tag Venue and The Washington were prompt and helpful which all helped ease the organising process! Many thanks to everyone involved.

Booked Upper Arch at SAMA Bankside
5.0
Amazing venue! I hired a space for my 30th birthday party and it couldn't have been more perfect. The minimum spend was really reasonable compared to other places I looked at and the bar itself is beautiful. We had the spot downstairs which was great as it meant some people could sit and chat in the back room while other people danced. Steve was the best host and all the bar staff were lovely. They made it feel really special. The cocktails are delicious and the music was amazing. My friends all really enjoyed themselves and all of them commented on what a nice venue it was. I had the best birthday there - I honestly couldn't have asked for anything more. 10/10. Would wholeheartedly recommend.
