It was a sweet night for Nickelodeon star and YouTube sensation JoJo Siwa.
While her big 16th birthday is still a month away, the Dance Moms alum got the celebrations started early with a birthday party at the W Hotel in Hollywood.
Famous faces like reality star kids North West and Penelope Disick were in attendance, as was fellow YouTuber Colleen Ballinger and Dance Mom Abby Lee Miller.
Judging by the guest list, friends of all ages got to have fun at Siwa's dream soirée, hosted by Nickelodeon. The event will be part of a Nickelodeon special, JoJo's Dream Birthday, set to air on Saturday, May 18 at 8 p.m. ET/PT on Nick USA.
There was also no shortage of spectacle as a marching band made its way through the pink carpet party and guests munched on sweet treats, including cotton candy.
It seems no detail was left behind for the sweet 16 birthday girl.
While the wait is officially on to see exactly what Siwa had in store for the big night, check out the adorable pink carpet arrivals in the gallery below:

North West and Penelope Disick Pose on the Red Carpet at JoJo Siwa's 16th Birthday Party
North West and Penelope Disick are already pros at hitting the red carpet.
The cousins and besties attended JoJo Siwa's Sweet 16 Birthday Celebration in West Hollywood, California, on Tuesday night, and struck adorable poses on the red carpet next to their idol. North, 5, and Penelope, 6, were joined by two friends, including Ryan Romulus -- the daughter of Tracy Nguyen Romulus, who is North's dad Kanye West's longtime publicist.
North and Penelope definitely dressed for the occasion. North rocked JoJo's signature big bow in her hair and paired the standout accessory with a glittery green jersey top, hot pink bicycle shorts, a fanny pack and silver boots, while Penelope also wore a bold look consisting of a rainbow sequin bomber jacket with matching pants and boots.

It's no secret North is a big fan of JoJo. In February, North's mom, Kim Kardashian West, tweeted, "LOL @ North’s bow. She is obsessed with @itsjojosiwa." One month later, Kim revealed North got some one-on-one time with her idol.
LOL @ North’s bow 🎀🎀🎀🎀🎀 She is obsessed with @itsjojosiwa
— Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) February 4, 2019
North just FaceTimed @itsjojosiwa and her life is made!!!!!! 🎀🎀🎀 That was the cutest thing ever seeing North soooo excited! Especially when she saw her dog bowbow 🎀🎀🎀
— Kim Kardashian West (@KimKardashian) March 17, 2019
North eventually collaborated with the former Dance Moms star on a video in which Kim drops off North so that JoJo can babysit her, and the two play hide-and-seek, make slime and check out JoJo's colorful car, among other activities.
At the 2019 Nickelodeon Kids’ Choice Awards last month, JoJo revealed to ET how the video came about.
"It actually -- Kim reached out to me and I just responded to it," she shared. "So, me and Kim, we made some things happen together.... Super excited about it.”

From Cosmopolitan:
North West Dressed Up Like a Mini JoJo Siwa to Meet Her Idol
So! Much! Color!
North West and JoJo Siwa are now the best of friends and North just went to JoJo’s 16th birthday party.
For JoJo’s Sweet 16, North dressed just like her idol, and they’re basically twins now.
JoJo Siwa just had the biggest Sweet 16 party that would put all those rich MTV kids to shame. Dance Moms icon Abby Lee Miller was there, YouTuber Manny Gutierrez was there, and so were Penelope Disick and North West, aka JoJo’s biggest fan.
For the party, which was hosted by the MVPs at Nickelodeon, North and Penelope got to walk the pink carpet alongside their best friends, and they all got to pose with JoJo. Now, since this is a JoJo party, a simple one-, two-, or three-tone outfit simply wouldn’t do.
Per usual, JoJo had one of her bows perched on the top of her ponytail—she chose electric blue—and paired it with a puff-sleeve sequined and fringed getup. Penelope wore a rainbow-sequined tracksuit with matching rainbow combat boots, and North basically looked like Jojo's twin. The 5-year-old fan wore a colorful bow on top of her hair, a glittery green shirt, hot pink bike shorts, a rainbow fanny pack, and metallic rainbow combat boots.
North, as you may very well know, is a HUGE JoJo Siwa fan. Last week, the two released their first YouTube collab, which involved JoJo babysitting North, them spilling glitter and slime all over the place, and North climbing on top of JoJo’s BMW that Justin Bieber really, really hates.
Apparently, Jojo's birthday involved a marching band and a bunch of cotton candy, but if you just have to know more about what all went down Nickelodeon will air JoJo’s Dream Birthday on May 18, which is an entire special dedicated to the shindig.

Penelope Disick & North West Join The Fun At JoJo Siwa’s ‘Dream Birthday’ Party In Rainbow Colors
JoJo Siwa had two very special guests at her birthday party: North West and Penelope Disick! The cousins looked like they were having a blast at the ‘Bop’ singer’s Sweet 16.
It ain’t a party without North West, 5, and Penelope Disick, 6! JoJo Siwa‘s 16th birthday party was a star-studded bash, and she made sure to invite her biggest fans. Northie and Penelope were escorted by their nannies to the “Dream Birthday” event, which was hosted in the W Hollywood hotel in Los Angeles on April 9. The celebration was held in typical JoJo fashion. The venue was loud, the colors were bright, and guests could even make their grand entrance on a purple carpet. Obviously, North and Penelope looked thrilled to pieces to be there as they snapped photos with the birthday girl! The “Every Girl’s a Super Girl” singer’s star power is rising by the day, and having famous friends like North and Penelope on her side isn’t hurting.
Penelope and North were the cutest party guests as they dressed to theme for the birthday bash. Penelope rocked rainbow sequins on a bomber jacket and a pair of joggers, while her cousin showed up in just as much color with a bright green jersey, pink shorts and a giant bow in her hair — a JoJo signature. The YouTube star doesn’t actually turn 16 until May 19, but her party was filmed for an upcoming Nickelodeon special that will air in the summer of 2019.
We all know how much North loves the former Dance Mom‘s star. The Keeping Up With The Kardashians star just appeared on JoJo’s YouTube channel for a very special episode called “BABYSITTING NORTH WEST!!!”, filmed March 27. Kim took North over to JoJo’s house, which is just as extra as she is. The place has its own crane game! North dressed up just like JoJo, rocking a pastel, high ponytail, a poufy, rainbow dress, and a massive bow on her head. The two played games, made slime (and dumped glitter all over the floor), and chilled in the back of JoJo’s glittery BMW. Yes, the one that Justin Bieber made fun of on Instagram. It looked like a crazy day.
Speaking of The Biebs… did you know that JoJo extended him an invite to her birthday party, too? Justin unfortunately didn’t take her up on the offer to perform for her guests, but it’s clear that their little tiff is over.

North West and Penelope Disick take over the red carpet at JoJo Siwa's Sweet 16th Birthday Party as the cute cousins pose with the pop star
North West and Penelope Disick are following in their mothers' footsteps.
The daughter of Kim Kardashian, five, and daughter of Kourtney Kardashian, six, took over the red carpet at JoJo Siwa's Sweet 16th Birthday Party in L.A. on Tuesday.
Posing with Ryan Romulus and another pint-sized friend, the adorable cousins looked excited to hang out with the Dance Moms teenage star.
North looked as cute as a button in a sparkling green jersey and big hair bow while Penelope sported a metallic rainbow outfit.
This is the second meeting between North and JoJo as the two collaborated on JoJo's music video last month.
North was able to play dress up and rocked an adorable rainbow ensemble as the two friends shot scenes in JoJo's custom BMW.
Meanwhile, the exciting project was said to be set up by Kim herself.
JoJo told Entertainment Tonight: 'It actually -- Kim reached out to me and I just responded to it. So, me and Kim, we made some things happen together. We're actually filming on Wednesday. Super excited about it.'
It will be a dream come true for North and Kim has made no secret of how much her daughter loves the YouTube star.
In February, she tweeted that her daughter is 'obsessed' with JoJo, and revealed how excited she was earlier in this month when the pair spoke to each other on FaceTime.
Kim wrote: 'North just FaceTimed @itsjojosiwa and her life is made!!!!!! That was the cutest thing ever seeing North soooo excited! Especially when she saw her dog bowbow. (sic)'
And Kim and Kanye - who also have three-year-old Saint and 14-month-old Chicago together - are said to be 'really excited' for the birth of their fourth child.
The couple are said to be hard at work getting their home ready for their new arrival, which will be their second to be born via surrogate mother after Chicago.
A source previously said: 'Kim and Kanye are really excited about the new baby! It's a bright spot right now given everything else that's going on in the family.
'At this point they've been working on the baby's nursery at their home and putting all that stuff together.'

From US Magazine:
JoJo Siwa Reveals What Makes Kim Kardashian Such a Great Mom: She Is ‘Always There’
Master at motherhood! When JoJo Siwa filmed a video with Kim Kardashian’s daughter, North, she got a firsthand look at the reality star’s parenting skills.
“She was really into it,” the Dance Moms alum, 16, told Us Weekly exclusively of the Keeping Up With the Kardashians star at JoJo Siwa’s Sweet 16 Birthday Celebration on Tuesday, April 9. “She was always there. Like, she let North do her thing, but she was always there in case she needed her. That was a really good thing.”
The YouTube star and Kardashian’s daughter, 5, hit it off while filming their March video. “If she wants to come onstage, she’s invited,” Siwa told Us of her upcoming concert. “I love sharing the stage with [my friends]. She’s definitely invited if she wants to come dance for a number.”
But the Nebraska native didn’t just bond with North — she texts Kardashian as well. “[Kim] sends me pictures of the kids,” Siwa told Us. “I asked her if the kids were coming today, and she responded with what the answer was. We just talk.”
The “High Top Shoes” singer added: “She actually gave me some great advice. She said she was always here for me if I needed it, so she’s a really sweet person. … I think that we both understand what this world is like, and that we both just want people to be nice and be happy and be friends and be supportive, and I think that’s what makes it work.”
JoJo’s mom, Jessalynn Siwa, echoed this sentiment, telling Us, “Kim texts JoJo all the time. And she’ll be like, ‘Hang on, mom. Kim’s texting me.’ They’re really good friends, and I love it. I love it so much. “
The Dance Moms alum, 44, wouldn’t mind also being in touch with the KKW Beauty creator. “I bet she’s gonna want North to be, like, a little celebrity in the child acting world,” Jessalynn said. “So I could probably give her some advice.”
JoJo’s Dream Birthday special is set to air on Nickelodeon on Saturday, May 18, at 8:00 P.M. ET/PT.
