Give your little Cars enthusiast the ultimate birthday treat! Whether they’re all about Cars 1, Cars 2, or Cars 3, they’ll go nuts hanging out with Lightning McQueen, Doc Hudson, Tow Mater, and Chick Hicks at their own party! From invites to cake toppers, we’ve got everything covered – balloons, banners, T-shirts, you name it!
Party Decorations
Turn your backyard into a party space. Set the scene with table placements that welcome guests and finishing touches that can be anything from colorful paper lanterns to orange traffic cones.
As soon as race fans arrive, announce the excitement to come. Themed yard signs strategically placed to welcome guests will make a big first impression.
This edgy and energetic design provides the perfect opportunity to go all out with color. Here, bold red and yellow pops against a checkered backdrop, with lots of fun decorative elements working everywhere. We love the idea of using a red, yellow, and green paper plate to make a traffic light.
Balloons
Let’s face it, kids love balloons. So, what better way to spruce up centerpieces at a kids birthday party. The containers were crafted from interlocking foam pieces filled with shredded paper. Also, consider marking the party zone with balloons hanging in the main party area or tying a bouquet to the mailbox.
Balloon Garlands
Make the ideal balloon garland background for your car-obsessed birthday celebration. 3 or 7 checkered balloons can be added to your purchase. Included are garland wire and a balloon pump.
Banners
Customize this fun Disney Pixar Cars Birthday banner with your child’s name. Checkerboard racing design featuring Lightning McQueen! Dimensions: 3’l x 5’w (horizontal) or 5’l x 3’w (vertical). Lightweight and durable, our 13 oz. vinyl material.
Create a beautiful backdrop behind your birthday table with a Cars banner. This banner is made with high quality thick cardstock paper and glitter cardstock. Images are printed out with a last printer and of really good quality.
Lightning McQueen
When Lightning McQueen races in with the cutlery, kids notice. Wrapping utensils is a decorative way to dress up needed party supplies. Pre-party assembly makes this a race winning idea.
Table Setting
These tables are covered with red and yellow tablecloths with black and white checkered paper used as chargers for each pit crew member. The Disney Cars birthday party plates, cups, and napkins zoomed in to finish the tables. Race ready and waiting for little racers.
Traffic Lights
A coffee can makes a unique container, especially when you use it to take advantage of the theme. These repurposed coffee cans make impressive traffic lights with a little paint, decorative trim, and tissue paper. Perfect for the diy, green-decorating enthusiast.
Checkered Flag
A checkered flag is so important and catches the attention of racers and fans alike. This tabletop makes the most of it, with a checkered table runner and centerpieces with the checkers flying high. Including candy as part of the decoration is a sweet thing to do.
Candy Buffet
Disney Cars birthday candy buffet is the perfect way to let kids create their own party favors. It is not every day that a child is faced with yummy candies and the freedom to fill a bag to their liking. This candy buffet was our opportunity to go all out with the theme. Even though candy is appealing on its own, a touch of the checkered print scattered throughout tied it all together.
Party Cake and Snack Ideas
Use the Disney Cars edible icing cake toppers to decorate your own cake. This topper is ready to use and comes with instructions. Alternatively, create your child’s cake with the Disney Cars Lightning cake pan. Easy-to-follow decorating instructions are included.
Surround the cake with amazing decorative pieces because it is the star. From the race cars around the track to the checkered pennant banner affixed to the table, everything about this cake presentation is a visual feast.
The more creatively you present your cake, the more it will be recognized. This checkered flag-covered birthday cake was set on top of a little box. A simple way for drawing attention to the cake.
Cupcakes
Go the extra mile with homemade cupcakes decorated in the Disney Cars birthday party theme. Short on time? Serve red and yellow cupcakes with sprinkles to coordinate with the theme.
Sweet Treats
Gummy bears, rock candy, M&Ms, Pixy Stix, red candy sticks, yellow candy sticks, and pre-packaged Cars candy were used in our buffet, but any colorful candies will work. Scoops were provided for easy serving and clear plastic bags brought it all home.
Kids will run right through these traffic lights. Simply, prepare rice cereal mixture, cut, and add red, yellow, and green candies for a fast Disney Cars birthday snack.
Fruit Kabobs
Fruit kabobs in the shape of traffic lights rapidly alter children’s perceptions of a nutritious snack. Colorful, delectable melon balls in red, yellow, and green adorn the skewers. Because children tend to eat less when they are excited, a small snack is an excellent choice.

Party Games and Activities

Prepare a kid friendly space. A table that is the right height, covered in butcher block or craft paper, with plenty of supplies that are easily accessible works best. When it’s clean up time, you will be glad you did.
Tire toss
Easy to assemble and suited for all ages. Using an inflatable or used tire, each member of the pit crew tries to toss bean bags into the target. Award prizes for the best aim.
Racing game
Faster than fast, quicker than quick, create a race track from a pool noodle. With the drop of the green flag, guests roll cars down the noodle to the finish line. What better activity for a Disney Cars birthday party.
Stoplight toss
This fun game allows party guests to test their throwing skills while also learning colors. Call out the color and guests attempt to toss bean bags to the corresponding color.
