Maymont: A Richmond Treasure and Birthday Party Hotspot

The animals at Maymont love the treats that come with birthday parties.

The birthday party: it’s the anxiously-awaited and highly-coveted day for the child, the exhausting and detail-oriented job for the parent. Maymont has some great ideas for your Richmond birthday party this year, and they’re taking care of the entertainment and the goody bags so that you don’t have to.

Among one of Richmond’s greatest historical and natural treasures, Maymont offers incredible birthday party experiences starting at $175 (member rate) that will mark this milestone for your kiddo in indelible ink:

Birthday at the Barn:

Hop on the Hay wagon and spend time with the Maymont friendly farm animals, feed them oats and if you’re lucky-get a chance to feed them oats and pet them in your private viewing area before celebrating in the farm party room!

 Nature Center Discovery Party:

If you’ve never gotten to see the Maymont Otters play, you’ve got to take a trip soon.

If your kids haven’t seen the Maymont otters, you gotta take ‘em! At this party, party attendees have access to the Nature Center exhibits and discover lab party room and access to tons of fun creatures from Virginia’s natural landscape.

Fanciful Fairy Party:

If your little one loves make-believe the Fairy Godmother in this party, held on the West Lawn and Porch of theMaymont Mansionincludes magical stories, wings, wands and fairy dust for an afternoon only an imagination could picture better.

Victorian Tea Party:

For the little ladies, an trip back in time with a  Victorian hostess serving afternoon tea and lemonade on the West Porch of  the Maymont Mansion is an elegant way to celebrate a new year in the life. Kids even get to see inside the mansion with a peek at Mrs. Dooley’s swan bedroom!

Need a gift idea? We love that you can Adopt a Living Thing to help Maymont for as low as $25 in the name of the birthday child, and tell them they have a duck, otter, or bear they’ve adopted at Maymont!
