TMNT Party Ideas

How To Host A Radical Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Themed Party

The Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles have been entertaining children of all ages for almost forty years. These shelled crusaders show no signs of slowing down in their fight against the evil Shredder and his sinister Foot Clan. The popularity of their franchise isn't going anywhere either; TMNT themed parties are ever popular for kids, and for adults who grew up with the characters, too.

Thinking of throwing a Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles party, but don't know where to start? To help you combat the nefarious forces of boredom, we've put together these radical TMNT party ideas.

At Blossom Costumes, we stock the best pop culture costumes in Australia. With fast delivery and flexible payments, we can get you TMNT-party-ready faster than you can say 'cowabunga'.

Make sure you have enough TMNT themed food and drinks

Alongside the normal drinks you'd usually serve at a party, a TMNT party offers the chance to be creative with your beverages. One option is to serve different soft drinks to represent each of the main turtles. For example, you might try:

  • • Fanta for Michelangelo
  • • Fanta Grape for Donatello
  • • Schweppes Raspberry for Raphael
  • • A blue soft drink, if that exists, for Leonardo

When choosing food, there's one item that you can't ignore: pizza. It's an iconic part of the TMNT brand, and an absolute must-have at any TMNT themed soirée. Indeed, somebody could even dress up like a pizza!

Just remember to be considerate of other people's dietary requirements, such as:

  • • Vegetarian
  • • Vegan
  • • Gluten free
  • • Kosher and halal

Other possible TMNT snacks and beverages include:

  • • A themed cake
  • • Japanese delicacies, like sushi
  • • Green, toxic ooze-themed punch

Warning: Do not serve turtle at your Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles party! This has the potential to scare and confuse any children present. Also, it might be ecologically irresponsible, since many varieties of turtle are endangered.

Look the part with a TMNT costume

And that's just for starters. There are so many TMNT themed costumes and shirts on our website, you're sure to find something you love.

Adults only: TMNT isn't just for kids. We also stock a number of adults-only costumes, like the Sexy DonatelloSexy Raphael, and the officially licensed TMNT Geisha costume. These might be appropriate for a wild, grown up party, or you might even want to use them for a more private occasion.

Keep the turtle tunes spinning at your TMNT party

There are countless songs that reference the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. Why not put them on a playlist for your party? Tracks like:

  • • Milky Cereal (LL Cool J)
  • • Ninja Rap (Vanilla Ice)
  • • Good Girls Go Bad (The Game, ft. Drake)
  • • Shell Shocked (Juicy J)

Plus, there are full motion picture soundtracks for each of the five major TMNT movies. Who would have thought that assembling a six-hour playlist full of songs about ninja turtles would be so easy?

Party hard with TMNT themed games and activities

Need to plan some themed games and activities for the party? Here are a few options:

  • • Play pin the tail on Master Splinter
  • • Rent an arcade game version of a classic TMNT game
  • • Organise a TMNT movie marathon
  • • Play safely with toy TMNT weapons like Donatello's bow staff, or Michelangelo's nunchucks.

Caution: Avoid any games or activities that involve real, sharp ninja weapons! Nothing will end a party sooner than a freak sword accident.

Decorate the venue

You've organised the costumes, the food, the activities, and the music. Now all that's left is to decorate the venue. There are many locations in the TMNT universe that would work for your party. With a little effort and some thoughtful decorations, you could transform your home into:

  • • Shredder's lair
  • • A Dojo
  • • A Sewer
  • • Somewhere in New York City

Alert: Do not actually host your party in a real-life sewer! They are unsanitary and susceptible to dangerous flash floods. 

At Blossom Costumes, we stock a huge selection of different costumes. Check out our online store and get inspired for your next big party.•
