A carousel, a unicorn, a mariachi band and a five-tiered princess cake – Inside Tamara Ecclestone’s extravagant ‘theme park’ birthday bash

Where's our invite?

Tamara Ecclestone is not one to do things by halves, and when it came to her 34th birthday bash this week, the Formula One heiress went all out on a hugely extravagant celebration.

Organised by her sister Petra Ecclestone, Tamara became the proud owner of her own theme park for the day, dubbed ‘Tamaraland’.

Posting a picture of the sparkly purple sign reading ‘Tamaraland: The happiest place on Earth est 1984’, on Instagram, Tamara wrote: “What a day. Thank you so much Petra Ecclestone.”

For the event itself, The Sun reported that just 18 close family and friends were invited along to their £70 million West London home, where the celebration was held.

Guests were treated to a Mariachi band upon arrival, while coming face-to-face with a wall covered in pink flowers, which carried on to crawl around the stairway and walls of their mansion.

The party also included four cakes, a carousel, a sweetie cart, and enormous ornaments, like an upside-down ice-cream were displayed around the garden.

The centre piece cake was shaped like a Disney castle and had five layers with an iced picture of Tamara herself on top.

Tamara posted a video of herself blowing out the candles and cutting the cake with the help of her adorable four-year-old daughter, Sophia.

“Make a wish,” Tamara is heard telling Sophia, who demands she wants to cut the cake ‘all by herself’.

The party itself, although Tamara’s, was still focused on super-cute Sophia, who was treated to a ‘real-life unicorn’ in the form of a pink Shetland pony, and given rides around the family garden.

Tamara came under criticism last year when she also revealed she had transformed the inside swimming pool of their mansion, which is located close to Kensington Palace, into a soft play area,  exclusively for her daughter.

Earlier that day, Tamara’s husband, businessman Jay also shared an Instagram Stories clip of Tamara opening her birthday presents on the morning of the day itself.

Rushing into the dining room ahead of her, Sophia shows her mum the room filled with hundreds of white balloons,a and a row of huge silver balloons to spell out ‘Tamara’.

On the table, there are also over 20 birthday gifts, wrapped in pink wrapping paper and tied with white bows.
