While some people want a special experience and adventure, others want to celebrate with their families or are looking for a special event for children. We've put together some options for adult children to make your birthday party special.

In swimming pool or SPA

You can spend the day in one of the indoor swimming pools of the Grand Duchy. For example, visit the water center in Mersch. In addition to pools for every taste, this aquatic oasis offers various saunas, Turkish baths, and whirlpools, as well as a poolside bistro and a daily buffet from 12:00 to 2:30 pm for 15.50 euros. In summer, you can sit on the outdoor terrace, which offers a panoramic view of the entire valley.

In the quest room

In case you are not ready for active sports, but want to have a new experience, join a quest. Relive the adventure in a new reality, limited to a few rooms with puzzles and riddles. You can choose a quest, for example, on the website of Crocus Quest Games.

On the trampoline

Birthdays are our favorite childhood celebrations. Take your friends and go to the bouncy park with trampolines. Kids will enjoy this place as well. However, keep in mind that they must be over 3 years old and will be allowed only when accompanied by an adult. You can order a party with a birthday cake with candles and have a great time in the cool company of friends and family.
