Is this enough pizza?

Is this enough pizza?

I never know how much to order and I always have so much leftover.

Hosting a laser tag birthday party with 24 children. I expect about 10 parents (our friends) to stay the entire time. 5 parents are definitely dropping off and 5 parents may or may not stay.

I just ordered 6 large pizzas.

Is this enough for 24 kids and 10-15 adults?

How old are kids? Make sure slices are cut so there are 16 pieces.

I think 6 is good with possibly some leftover. Assuming they are younger than 9 I say each kid 1 slice and each adult 1.5 slices

Depends if they are 1-slice 5 year olds or 3-slice 12 year olds, lol.

I would have several pies cut in 1/16 slices to avoid waste.

20 kids are 6-7 and then I have 4 toddlers.

I agree. If you figure 1.5 slices for each kid and 2 for each adult. You may have a little extra, but I think that's better than not enough.

I had a party with 17 kids and maybe 8-10 parents. 5 pizzas was just enough. I think you would need 7 pizzas.

I would order 1 more pie just to be safe. I'd rather have more than not enough. You can bring home the extras and if there's a lot left over just freeze it. I always over buy though.

Will order an extra pie to have 7 pies. I am going to ask for this pie to be cut into 16. The rest can have normal sized pieces.

I think 6 pies is enough. Especially if all 10 parents don't stay
