01 / Nerf-style tag

The same objective missions, from age five.

A dedicated 3,500 square foot arena with padded turf flooring, barrels, bases and bunkers. Game masters run the same style of objective-driven missions as our laser tag, which makes this the entry point for younger players and mixed-age groups.

02 / What makes it different

The lowest age minimum in the building, running the same missions as the arena next door.

The Nerf arena is 3,500 square feet of padded turf with barrels, bases and bunkers, and it is deliberately not a softer version of laser tag. Game masters run the same style of objective-driven missions, so a nine year old is playing capture the flag with a real objective rather than milling about.

Sessions start at five past the hour and five past the half hour, which is worth knowing if you are timing a group around a session.

We provide a single-shot pistol-style blaster, regular and mega ammo, and safety glasses. Guests who bring their own blaster get twenty percent off. Nerf Rival blasters are not permitted, which is a safety limit rather than a preference.

Ages 5 and up. Hours are limited during the school year, so it is worth checking before you build a weekday plan around it. Closed-toe shoes are required.

How the arena runs.

Objective missions, structured session times, and equipment provided.

01

Objective missions, not a free for all

Game masters run the same style of missions as the laser tag arena, adapted to the ages in front of them. That is the difference between a Nerf arena and a room with foam darts in it.

02

Padded turf and real cover

Barrels, bases and bunkers across 3,500 square feet. Cover is what makes a mission playable rather than a sprint, and padded flooring is what makes it repeatable.

Structured session times

Sessions start at five past the hour and five past the half hour, so groups move through cleanly instead of bottlenecking at the door.

What age can play Nerf-style tag?

Ages 5 and up, the lowest minimum age in the building.

Do you provide the blaster?

Yes. We provide a single-shot pistol-style blaster, regular and mega ammo, and safety glasses.

Can I bring my own blaster?

Yes, and you get twenty percent off if you do. Nerf Rival blasters are not permitted.

When do sessions start?

At five past the hour and five past the half hour.

Are you open for Nerf all year?

Hours are limited during the school year, so it is worth checking before you plan a weekday visit around it.

Can we play dodgeball?

Dodgeball is available as an arena buyout only, so it runs as part of a group booking rather than as a walk-in activity.

A group with blasters in the Combat Ops Nerf-style tag arena

Dodgeball runs on an all-soft court, and it is buyout only.

Color-changing, spider-grip, sting-resistant foam balls. Because it is an arena buyout, booking a group is the only way to play it.

The room that makes a mixed-age group work.

Five and up is the lowest minimum in the building, and that changes what a family can do together.

01 / Families and parties

Younger players

Ages 5 and up, which is the lowest minimum in the building. It is the reason a family with a five year old and a fifteen year old can do the same activity.

02 / Groups

Youth, school and church groups

  • School-year hoursLimited
  • DodgeballBuyout only

Tell us the date. We will build the rest around it.

Headcount, a date and the kind of event are the three things that let us come back with a real proposal. Everything else can wait until we talk.
