There are few people that don’t know about Teen Titans – it would be akin to drawing a blank on Dexter’s Laboratory, Tom and Jerry or The Roadrunner. Fortunately for parents, your children also get to experience this classic (the Teen Titans comics started in 1980) with the re-imagined Teen Titans GO! Series. That also means that you get to have that lovely theme song stuck in your head (seriously, it’s more difficult to pry it loose than to get released from Starfire’s grip, and she’s an alien that doesn’t know her own strength). If your child fancies him or herself as a super hero in the making, then it’s time to don your own Super Parent cape (I draw the line at tights, though) and organize an amazing Teen Titans Go! birthday bash. Below you will find plenty of Teen Titans Go! Party ideas to help even the parents whose eyes glaze and stare blankly at the mention of the show.
Teen Titans Go Birthday Party Invitations and Ideas
The first step in assembling your Teen Titans is sending out the party invites. Since the series is not all that new, if you don’t mind spending a bit of money, on Etsy there are more types of invites than you can dream of. These invites can be easily customized – and it’s not just about including the party details but you can even add a photo of your child (battling or dashing alongside the Teen Titans).
*Free Printable Teen Titans birthday invitations
You could also use our free Teen Titans birthday invitation templates, if you want something quick and easy to send out. The templates provided allow you to edit the invites with details of the party before printing.
*Free Printable Teen Titans thank you cards

Teen Titans Go Birthday Party Decorations and Ideas
With the mission on the way, it’s time to prepare your Titan Tower for the coming onslaught ..er, party. Once you’ve cleared all the crumbs from Robin, Beast Boy and Cyborg’s sandwich eating marathons, you need to spruce up the place a little.
*DIY Teen Titans Birthday Banner
Using this free printable Teen Titans go birthday banner templates, make a happy birthday banner to hang up at the party.
*DIY Teen Titans Balloons
The easiest decoration that you could add are character balloons. You can buy them or try your hand at making them yourself. For the latter, it’s pretty simple, grab green balloons for Beast Boy, pink ones for Starfire, purple ones for Raven, white ones for Cyborg and red ones for Robin then print, cut and glue character faces.
*Teen Titans color scheme
Another idea for Teen Titans Go party decorations is to grab some streamers, balloons and confetti in the Teen Titans color scheme (purple, green, red, pink and white) and to splash it around the party room. Make streamer chains, sprinkle some confetti across your party table and make balloon bouquets with the theme colors. You could even fashion your decoration colors around a character the birthday boy or girl likes the most. Robin for instance is red with green and yellow while Raven is purple, white and black.
*Free Printable Teen Titans Welcome Sign
Before guests enter into the main party room, have this free printable Teen Titans welcome sign on display to get guests into the party spirit nice and early.
*Superhero Word Bubble decorations
To add color and create more of a comic book feel you can use these free Superhero word bubbles printables to make everything from a centerpiece to food labels.
*DIY Raven’s Mirror Prop
For the more crafty, there are other props that you can make – like Raven’s mirror. You just need to make a spooky mirror , like in the tutorial, and add two pairs of elongated eyes. Place it at the entrance – or in dark places – for optimum effect.
*Teen Titans Posters and Wall Decals
If your looking to touch up your venue walls you could utilize Teen Titans posters or use wall decals to add some color to your party room walls.
Teen Titans Go Party Table Setup
Once all that is said and done, you still need to arrange the party table, or the place where the great food battle will occur.
*T Tower Table setup
If the show is anything to go by. You start off with the basics, like the table shape – hint hint ‘T’ Tower. Place them in a T-shape, cover them with a gray cloth on which you can spray paint some windows (or glue felt ones) and you have your base of operations ready to go.
*Robin Mask Napkin Rings
You can also print mini Robin masks, glue the ends to make a circle and use them as napkin rings.
*Superhero Sound Tableware
You can buy superhero plates with “Bam”, “pow”, “help”, or just get Teen Titans Go plastic plates. If you’re feeling crafty and your glue gun is feeling neglected, then you can also make those plates yourself with some transparent plastic plates and Teen Titans character templates (printed, cut and glued to the underside of the plates).
*DIY Teen Titan Character cups
An easy Teen Titans party table set up idea is to have character soda cups – like a green cup for Beast Boy or a red one for Robin. You just need a template and a sharpie and they should come out looking like these .
*Teen Titans Cube paper figures
But ‘la piece du resistance’ is saved for last with Teen Titans Go cubecraft. If you’re not quite sure what that is or what you eat it with, cubecraft is the art of making characters out of paper in the shape of…cubes. It only requires some basic handling of scissors and glue and you would end up with wonderful decorations for the table (as long as you don’t set anything up outside, else you run the risk of seeing your wonderful Teen Titans creations fly away). Here are templates for all of the characters: Robin, Raven, Beast Boy, Starfire, Cyborg.
Teen Titans Go Party Food and drinks
The next important bit, for any growing Teen Titan, is food. If you’ve so much as glimpsed at the show you would see that it holds true to the characters as well (food features in more episodes than super villains do – and it’s quite often the focal point of an adventure).
*Free Printable Teen Titans food labels
Before we delve into the foods below, use these free printable Teen Titans food labels to make food tents, they’ll come in handy for giving each food creative names.
*Meatballs
You can start off with everybody’s favorite – a meatball party, complete with printable label.
*Legendary Sandwich of Power
Next up, straight from the first episode of the Teen Titans Go series comes the Legendary Sandwich of Power – in essence a Bacon Lettuce Tomato sandwich. You can add a label beneath it and say it was made with Mystical Bacon (retrieved from the lava lake), King’s lettuce (from deep underground), Stellar tomato (hidden among stars), and Pretzel bread (…from the supermarket). These are the actual ingredients of the Sandwich of Power – go figure; we’ve been eating it without knowing for a long time.
*Mother Mayeye’s Blueberry pies
Following another Teen Titans Go episode (we did warn that they are very food involved), you can serve Mother Mayeye’s blueberry pies (just stay clear of using humans as main ingredients, like the recipe in the show dictates).
*Hotdogs with Starfire drink
You can also serve some hotdogs with a “Starfire Drink” (aka mustard) following this gem of a conversation: Starfire: This tangy yellow beverage is truly delightful./ Cyborg: Uh, Starfire?/Robin: That’s mustard. /Starfire: Is there more? /[Robin and Cyborg stare at her weirdly].
*Robins staff treats
You can also make Robin’s staff treats – with chocolate covered pretzel sticks, or have some of Terra’s rocks (chocolate coated raisins – because everything is better with chocolate).
*Burgers vs Burritos
You can have a Cyborg versus Beast Boy plate with a Burger or Burrito platter (each half of the platter covered in one of the treats with a “vs” written in ketchup in the middle). In one of the episodes Cyborg and Beast boy compete over who’s favorite food is better than the others. Cyborg likes burgers while Beast boy is more of a Burrito fan.
*Teen Titans Macarons
And for a sweet send off, how about some Teen Titans macarons/cookies? This tutorial is perfect for decorating cookies to look like the characters from the show. Check it out:
You can’t go wrong with serving pizza as one of the foods at the party, firstly most kids love pizza and secondly the Teen Titans love them too. You could make mini pizzas which make it easy for kids to pick up and eat.
*Superhero fruit platters
For a healthier dish you could make superhero fruit platters as seen here. You could use blueberries and mango/apple pieces to make robins emblem.
*Free Printable Teen Titans water bottle wrappers
Every superhero needs to occasionally take a break from crime fighting to replenish their energy levels. If your planning on providing bottle drinks, use these free printable Teen Titans water bottle wrappers to match them to the theme.
Teen Titans Go Birthday Cake and Cupcake Decoration Ideas
The cherry on the cake is…the birthday cake? (that is a lot of stacked cake, right there). Either way, the star of the party (beside the birthday boy or girl) is the birthday cake. You can always order one from a specialty cake decorations shop – and say goodbye to your wallet, in the process.
*Raven Cake
However , If you are not afraid of getting your own hands dirty, here’s how to make a simple Raven cake.
*Free Printable Teen Titans Go Cupcake Toppers and Wrappers
If you plan on making Super cupcakes for your Teen Titans birthday party, use these free printable Teen Titans go cupcake toppers and wrappers to decorate each cupcake.
Teen Titans Go Party Games and Activities
A bored Teen Titan is a messy one – so you need to make sure that you keep your guests well occupied (for the sake of your house).
*Teen Titans Coloring Pages
For the younger Titans, there are plenty of coloring pages, oh and here are even more coloring pages.
*Meatball Toss Game
Another game you can try, that is easy and fun to make, is the Meatball Toss – use cardboard character images, with open mouths, something like this. Have the children try to compete to place the most amount of meatballs in the mouth of a character.
*Starfire and Raven Makeover Table
You can also organize a Starfire and raven make-up table – just check out the make-up tutorial links we’ve put in the birthday costume section.
*Starfire’s Grip Game
Another Teen Titans Go party game idea is to play Starfire’s Grip. Starfire has trouble adjusting to Earth culture – let’s show her how to grip properly (she doesn’t know her own strength and occasionally squeezes one of team mates). Have the children grab a pair of plastic pliers and have to lift 3 eggs, without dropping them/breaking them – whoever does that the fastest, wins.
*Beast Boy Tail Chasing game
Another idea is to organize a Beast Boy ‘dog chasing tail’ game. The children stand in line with their arms on the shoulders of the child in front of them. The first one is the head, the last one in the line is the tail. The head has to catch the tail without the line breaking – and the players in the middle have to hinder the progress of the tail, without removing their hands from the child in front. If the line breaks, the one who broke it becomes the new ‘head”. When the head catches the tail, it becomes the new tail and the next child in line becomes the head.
*Teen Titans Tower Defence Game
You can also organize a Teen Titans tower defence game. The children should be separated in two groups that in turn become the attackers/defenders. In each group, the children hold hands and stand in a line facing the other group. The group that starts will be the attackers. They have to decide to send one person and that child has to hurl themselves at the tower defense, to find the weak link the chain. If the handholding breaks, the child can take one of the defenders whose hands he/she broke through back to his own team. If the breach fails, the child has to stay with the other group. After a side sends a child – the roles switch.
*Pin the tail on Beast Boy
And lastly, with beast Boy having so many transformations you can play pin the tail on Beast boy – with a spin. Print out various Beast Boy transformations (any type of animal, but make it green) – and have the children pin the correct tail on the correct animal (t-rex tail on t-rex etc.).
Teen Titans Go Birthday Party Favors and Ideas
Once the party is ready to break up, you need to be ready with party favors.
*DIY Teen Titans favor Bags
Make your own favor bags with paper lunch bags and free printable Teen Titans favor tags. Simply, print and attach the tags to each favor bag.
*Cheap favor Ideas
Fill up the bag with Stickers, tattoos, Teen Titans Go badges, bottle cap necklaces and zipper pull charms (on Amazon or Etsy).
*DIY Teen Titans Candy treats
Using these free printable Teen Titans favor toppers and a cellophane bag filled with candy, you can make Teen Titans candy bags to give out to guests. You can use skittles or m&ms and select the colors that match characters from the show the best.
Teen Titans Go Birthday Gift ideas
Last but not least, when it comes to gifts, you need to consider your own child. Fortunately, since the Teen Titans have been around for some time, there is plenty of merchandise available. You can get some Teen Titans Go t-shirts, there are plenty of models available, from Slade, to Raven, in various degrees of complexity (there are even Raven meme shirts – with keep calm and Azrath Metrion Zintos).
You can find Raven/Starfire hand painted earrings on Etsy or you can give them action figures and Teen Titans Go – T-Tower play sets or Titans T-Sub carrier vehicle – for a full package. There are also Dc comics deck building sets for Teen Titans and collectible card game sets. There are so many things to choose from, it will be impossible to go wrong – like backpacks, plushies, pajamas (as long as your wallet can take the hit, you’re good to go).

I love the banner, and VERY thankful to find one. But is there a way to get these same theme but in my daughters name? So it says “Happy Birthday April”? Thanks.

Hi Crystal,
Unfortunately at the moment we can only provide the letters to spell out “Happy Birthday”, In the near future we will be releasing a full alphabet banner template.
Kind regards
