However, when in the Twin Cities, there are a broad spectrum of destinations, themes and possibilities available for your next surprise party, regardless of the birthday boy or girl's age. Pick out an unusual venue or theme to throw a surprise party that will offer something a little different to all the guests. - During the warmer months, Minneapolis' Minnehaha Park makes an excellent birthday party venue. Spanning over 193 acres, the park includes a 53-foot waterfall, limestone bluffs and many views of the Mississippi River. Surprise guests can leap out from behind varied flora, including oak, elm, silver maple and cottonwood trees, plus native woodland wild flowers. For entertainment, bring a picnic or coordinate the party to coincide with one of the park's concerts. The park can even accommodate the needs of larger parties, with a four reservable picnic shelters and renovated bathrooms. For active guests, there are volleyball courts. If your guest of honor is a dog lover, move festivities to the south of the park, where four-legged friends can roam without leashes.
