About Us

In 1986, Party City opened our first one-stop party supply store in East Hanover, New Jersey, created to take the hassle out of party planning. Today, we are the world's largest party supply retailer, with more than 500 stores in the United States and Puerto Rico and a thriving Internet presence, including Favors in the City--where we help you make every special occasion more delightful and distinctly you!

In December of 2005, Party City became a division of Amscan Holdings. Amscan designs, manufactures and distributes party goods, and maintains one of the largest and most varied product offerings in the industry. We're committed to being the best at helping our customers celebrate life's joyful moments. Our reliable, time-tested knowledge of party-perfect trends, incomparable party accessories and superior customer service make throwing a successful event--large or small--fun for everyone.

With the acquisition of Party America in late 2006, we now have the number-one and number-two companies in the party industry and are well positioned to continue to dominate this business by blending the best of two superb companies. With the support of our parent company, our partners at Amscan, our more than 750 stores and almost 300 corporate employees, we are the biggest and best in this business and are excited to continue to serve our customers and grow our company.
