Book Day Costumes

World Book Day costumes

The first World Book Day was celebrated on 23rd April 1995, and since then the literacy appreciation event has grown in popularity across the globe. In the UK, our World Book Day is held on the first Thursday of every March, allowing students and teachers to participate during term time. As well as gifting every school child a voucher to put towards a book of their choice, little ones are encouraged to dress up for the day and celebrate their favourite literary characters. Teachers and other adults may also want to get in on the action and show their love for their own fictional heroes.

Especially for World Book Day, The Party Warehouse has picked out our favourite literary-themed fancy dress costumes for kids of all ages. No matter what story they love best, we have the right outfit in our selection. From The Chronicles of Narnia to The Very Hungry Caterpillar, we bring iconic children's characters to life. Your child can be a pirate or a king, a cowboy or a nurse. You could also pick from a variety of Disney outfits, or one of the stars of The Wizard of Oz. We also have Where's Wally, Dennis the Menace, Maid Marian, Harry Potter and Cleopatra outfits - whatever book they choose, you can find the right outfit and accessories in our store.

Give your child a special costume for World Book Day and make the magic of storytelling come alive for them. Get in touch with The Party Warehouse for more information on our high quality children's costumes and to place your order.
