Party bookings and cancellations

Birthday party terms and conditions

How to book

Book a children's party by filling in a party booking form and take it to reception at the relevant centre. We take full payment at the time of booking.

Parties are discounted by 15% if you are an Active Chesterfield member (member discount does not apply to room and table hire).

We will require all your correct contact details, including a contact phone number and an email address if you have one. 

Children should not be left unattended, and a parent/guardian must remain on site throughout the party.


Cancellations

Party bookings may be cancelled with at least seven days’ notice to the centre in writing. Bookings cancelled under this time limit will be charged at full rate, unless re-let.

Please contact the Healthy Living Centre or Queen's Park Sports Centre as soon as possible to cancel your booking.
