Ready to make your little one’s birthday “Try Everything!”? A Zootopia-themed party brings the colorful characters, bustling city vibes, and animal-filled fun of the movie right into your home or venue. Whether your kiddo loves Judy Hopps, Nick Wilde, or Flash the sloth (slowly…but hilariously), this theme is packed with opportunities for adorable décor, creative activities, and magical character entertainment.

Here’s your guide to planning the ultimate Zootopia celebration, with a little help from Pixie Dusted Party!

1. Choose Your Zootopia Zones

Set the scene by transforming your party space into the movie’s iconic districts. You can create one area or several “mini neighborhoods” guests can explore!

Sahara Square: Warm colors, palm leaves, inflatable cacti, and popsicle treats.
Tundratown: Blue and white décor, fake snow, marshmallow “snowballs,” and cozy blankets.
Rainforest District: Tropical greenery, vines, leaf garlands, and mist machines.
Bunnyburrow: Flowers, carrots, and gingham picnic décor.

Each zone can host a different snack or activity station—easy, immersive, and totally photo-worthy!

2. Zootopia-Inspired Decorations

Keep the theme consistent and colorful with city-style touches:

Cute paw-print floor decals leading to different zones
Street-style “Welcome to Zootopia” signs
Animal print balloons
Skyline tabletoppers
Police badges for guests

3. Themed Snacks Perfect for Every Animal

Bring in fun treats inspired by Judy, Nick, and the whole gang:

Judy’s Carrot Patch Cups: Carrot sticks + ranch in clear cups
Pawpsicles: Red and blue popsicles just like Nick and Finnick sold
ZPD Donuts: Pink donuts with sprinkles for Officer Clawhauser
Savanna Sunset Punch: Fruit punch layered with orange juice for that warm Sahara Square look
“Try Everything!” Snack Bar: Popcorn, fruit, veggie cups, cookies, pretzels, and more

Don’t forget—you can order themed cakes and cupcakes from Pixie Dusted Party’s bakery to make dessert extra special!

4. Zootopia Party Games & Activities

Keep guests entertained with animal-themed fun:

ZPD Training Course: A mini obstacle course where kids complete missions like catching a runaway “weasel” or solving simple clues.
Paw Print Scavenger Hunt: Hide prints around your backyard leading to a prize or treat.
Carrot Toss Game: Toss orange bean bags into bunny-shaped buckets.
Flash’s Slow-Motion Freeze Dance: When the music stops, kids freeze as slowly as possible—just like Flash.
Fingerprint Craft Station: Kids make their own “police badges.”
