So a little about us…
Back in 2012 our founder Mr Vassallo was throwing his son a Pirate themed birthday party.
Disheartened by the lack of choices available in local shops and online, Mr Vassallo had a eureka moment! He decided to open his own online and brick and mortar party shop that would have everything you need for a party, all in one place.
That’s where the party started and over 13 years down the line, it’s grown to over 30,000 products spanning party supplies, balloons, fancy dress, wedding accessories… The list goes on!
Over the past years, we’ve become a powerhouse of party supplies, spanning across Malta and Gozo. Our story has been written by our staff, who never let the party stop and work hard to make the Once Upon A Time Party Shop experience the best it can be for our customers! Thanks to them, we’ve been a part of thousands of celebrations and counting.
