Teenager birthday parties

I know this is quite silly and there's more important things going on at the moment but I was wondering if you had any experience for teenagers parties. DD is in year 7 so it's all a bit different now as the is form groups and mixed groups. We'd like to do something at home but as they will be new friends, have you had any good parties you could share the idea.
We'd like to do something at home, maybe with just 10 kids or maybe more? Could do something out and about but not sure for the 'something different' rather than jump park/cinema.

Any ideas appreciated.

Cinema and sleepover

Pamper type party - nails, face masks etc

Girls shopping trip and lunch

Dinner out somewhere cool

Bowling and arcades.

Experience day - stranger things, afternoon tea etc.

My sons parties have been go karting and inflatable water park which was good fun.

Theme park.

I guess depends where you are and what month the birthday is.

Thanks for the ideas. I think we're used to primary school parties and kind of expecting to do the same in to teens Smile you're ideas are good though. Must get my head around it.

We added mocktail making to usual pizza, film, popcorn sleepover.

Some fancy plastic gin glasses , paper umbrellas, fat straws, stirers. Poping bobas (like in bubble tea), chopped strawberries, orange & lemon slices. Lots of colourful juices, cordials, lemonade etc. They took the glasses and other bits home as party favours. Eleven year olds loved it. Would get well with pampering, but I couldn’t quite face that this time.

We used these:
