Party Hat

The Party Hat (widely known as the Beta Hat) is an extremely rare head item in Club Penguin. It was available at the Town during the Beta Test Party on September 21, 2005, which were two parties that lasted for a total of four hours. It was given as a reward to all the Beta Testers for their hard work during the Beta Testing. It was the first free item ever given away in the history of Club Penguin.

Trivia

 * It is the rarest item in Club Penguin.
 * While wearing it when going to play Card-Jitsu Fire or Card-Jitsu Water, Sensei will comment about it.
 * Sensei revealed that he has one, but he never wears it.
 * Like all other party hats, it will never return.
 * Screenhog is the one who created the Party Hat. He picked what he thought was tacky party colors and put them on a classic cone hat. This was Screenhog's idea to hopefully try to make the item less desirable and would be unwanted in the future. Unfortunately and ironically, this failed.
 * For the Prehistoric Party 2014, a Prehistoric Beta Hat was released, which is a "prehistoric" version of this.
 * In July 2014, a secretly kept exploit got leaked and was made public. Many penguins then exploited this item. Later, it was fixed.
