Race Car Party Details:
This is what Emily shared about the event-
“Racers,Start Your Engines!!
My son Maverick is a little speedster. He doesn’t walk. He runs! And like most little boys, he is borderline obsessed with anything with wheels. He loves taking his cars and crashing them into one another, and lining them up by size and color, and of course – racing them!
I knew Mav would love a race car-themed party for his 3rd birthday. The kids really loved racing the matchbox cars on different tracks in our backyard.
Some of my favorite elements to this party were the customized lanyards and pit passes I made for all the guests to wear as they entered the party. It was really fun and felt like a real race track!
Themed Cake and Decor
I also loved Maverick’s race car-themed cake, complete with a speedometer, race car, and finish line and was displayed on a real tire. His favorite color is blue and he loved that I incorporated blue all over the party decor.
If you have a car-loving little boy, I highly suggest throwing him a race car party for one of his birthdays! It’s a great party theme that you can do in many different colors.
Blinking traffic lights and car wall decals added to race car theme throughout our house!

Hi! This cars party is incredible! I hope you all had a wonderful time.
Can you tell me where you got the train tracks? I’m guessing you and/or talented crew put it all together.
Thank you so much for sharing your ideas :)
Hi Kelly! As this isn’t a Kara’s Party Ideas styled party, your best bet is to reach out to the party stylist directly. Her name with a link is in the first paragraph of this party post. XOXO!
Hi! How did you achieve the race track table runners? Is that something you purchased made, or that you did yourself. Please let me know. I’d like to use those runners for my son’s party.
