Background[]
The routine starts off showing a circle on the Krusty Krab, which is zoomed in on a note on the door reading "CLOSED Everybody's at Spongebob's Birthday Party" with a smiley face, which was written by Mr. Krabs. It’s then revealed that the circle was a telescope being set up by Plankton, who then thinks about the note. A transition into SpongeBob's bedroom then occurs as he's sleeping while a sleeping Patrick gets ejected out of the alarm clock’s horn. SpongeBob turns it off and gets up to start dancing with Patrick. As they dance, a platform starts descending.
The rest of the routine mostly takes place inside Goofy Goober’s Ice Cream Party Boat from The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie. Throughout the routine, the coaches can be seen dancing on an elevated pillar, on a floor that is colored tan with sand texture, and the sides are light brown with tan lines on the bottom and a pattern of a clay on the top. Jellyfish can also be seen. In one part of the routine, Plankton can be seen peeking his head out of the pillar. Whenever "Birthday" or "Happy Birthday" is sung, multiple copies of the Realistic Fish Head surround the screen and mouth the words.
The first floor has a lime green wallpaper with two black speakers on both sides and white pillar. There is red banner with a white "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" written on it. There is also a band in front of the wallpapers, dressed in black sleeveless vest and pants, and white button up shirt. The purple one with a red hair is on the left playing a black keyboard, the large one in gradients of orange to red is on the center, playing a blue drums with a red star on the bass drum, and a thin yellow one with small glasses is on the right playing a pink guitar.
The next floor underneath has a white and pink striped patterned wallpaper and the floor is tiled black and white. The room has a dark red piano on the left, a dark red claw machine with a Peanut on top is on the right, and on the middle, there is a white cake with light purple frosting placed on a table, and a rainbow and white clouds decoration. Several kids can be seen. Squidward, who is wearing a pink and hot pink striped birthday hat, can be seen holding on to the left pillar and kicking, presumably scared of the kids.
The next floor has a green wallpaper, with decoration on it like a picture frame showing SpongeBob’s house. Colorful balloons can be seen scattered on the floor and there’s a small table in red tablecloth which placed a glass bowl with pinkish juice with many glasses and dark indigo rock with a purple coral. Mary can be seen standing on a brown ladder while Larry the Lobster can be seen holding a dumbbell-shaped balloon with letters on each side, with H on the left and B on the right.
The next floor has a blue wallpaper with light cyan stripes on it, as well as red clothing decoration on top. The room has many gifts, which are most shades of blue, red, purple, and green. Sandy can be seen hanging on a white string alongside yellow stars and planet decorations. Sandy appeared simply wearing a blue striped birthday hat and playing a yellow electric guitar. Plankton can be seen again fishing a Krabby Patty on the next floor under it.
In the next floor, the wallpaper are simply teal and there are wooden signs pointed on a food truck where Mr. Krabs can be seen. The truck is mainly white with tan boat shaped base and red and white swim ring attached. The interior of the truck is light blue and there is a large Krabby Patty. Many of the citizens can be seen, mainly lining up or sitting on one of the tables.
In the next floor, the left side has a purple striped wallpaper and an arrow shaped wooden sign that pointed down that has a red "PARTY" written on it, leading to a cave like space with staircase on it. Many of the citizens can be seen lining up. Mr. Krabs once again can be seen as one of the background characters to lining up. He has a more angered expression and can be seen banging Plankton onto the wall.
The final floor is the party room. Various obscured fish are watching the platform and cheering on SpongeBob and Patrick. The platform is now glowing in various colors. On the left is a stand saying "HAPPY BIRTHDAY" that features a DJ, and on the right is a counter, which is being overseen by a bartender.
At the end of the routine, Gary opens a door with a candle on his shell and smiles.

- Both the logo and the title of the YouTube preview refers to the song as “SpongeBob SquarePants’ Birthday”.
- In early access versions of the Just Dance 2025 Edition song pack, there were extra lines in the lyrics between the first and second chorus that are not actually sung.[4] Specifically, they were "Mmm-hmm/Come on now/Whose birthday is it?/It’s your birthday!".

- The direction of the routine was handled by Paris-based animation directing group Glucose.[5]
- SpongeBob’s Birthday is the fourth routine to incorporate 2D animation, after Danger! High Voltage, Shine a Little Love, and Wasabi.
- Spongebob’s Birthday is the second routine in the Just Dance franchise to be related to a Nickelodeon show, after Make It Shine.
- It would have been the fourth one if Big Time Rush and Halfway There had not been scrapped.
- Halloween’s Here, Move Your Body, and SpongeBob’s Birthday were the third, fourth, and fifth routines from Just Dance 2025 Edition to return to 舞力无限, after Stop This Fire and The Lion Sleeps Tonight (Wimoweh).
- They were also the sixth, seventh, and eighth routines to be released in the service after the discontinuation of weekly updates and outside of a season or a game bundle, after Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life, Darkest Hour, Lump, and the aforementioned.
- As of January 9, 2025, SpongeBob’s Birthday is the second most played map in Just Dance 2025 Edition.[6]
- The sunglasses of each coach are shaped like the other coach.
- When the routine was first released, a "Please Stand By" sign was seen before the intro of the song.
- The routine was likely made to celebrate SpongeBob’s twenty-fifth anniversary.
- In the preview gameplay, the pictograms have default colors, and some of them look different from the final ones.
- Two more beta pictograms can be seen in a promotional tweet for the routine.[7]
- In 舞力无限, both coach selection images are placed more upwards (resulting in SpongeBob’s shoes being faintly visible), and Patrick’s body is mirrored except from his face and collar.
- Additionally, the map background in 舞力无限 is more zoomed out than the one from Just Dance 2025 Edition.
