Now we bring that same energy to your party — without the mess, chaos, or planning headaches.

We bring the gear.

We set up the arena.

We run the games.

We clean it all up.

You just enjoy the party.

How It Works

Five Simple Steps

  1. 01

    Book Your Battle

    Choose your party date, package, and location.

  2. 02

    We Arrive Early

    Your Battle Host arrives about 45 minutes before the party to survey the backyard, set up the arena, load blasters, and prepare the games.

  3. 03

    Safety Briefing

    Before the battle begins, every player gets safety instructions and is fitted with goggles.

  4. 04

    Game Time

    Your host runs short, exciting games that keep the kids engaged and moving.

  5. 05

    We Clean Up

    When the battle is over, we handle all equipment breakdown and cleanup.

You would barely know a full-scale backyard battle just happened.

Safety First

Is It Safe?

Yes — safety is built into every party.

Our hosts review the rules before gameplay, referee each battle, and make sure kids understand how to play safely.

Safety Rules

  • Goggles must stay on during gameplay
  • No aiming for the head
  • Headshots do not count
  • No close-range shots under 5 feet
  • No diving or sliding
  • No hitting with blasters
  • Stop immediately when the referee blows the whistle
  • Younger kids may play with “fast walking only” rules

Like any active backyard game, there are standard risks that come with running, dodging, and playing. Our job is to keep the games organized, supervised, and as safe as possible.

Weather

What Happens If It Rains?

Rain or Shine

Backyard Battles are designed for light rain or shine. A little mud on the battlefield never hurt anyone. If the backyard is still safe and playable, we will do our best to host the event outdoors.

For heavy rain or unsafe weather, we can move indoors if there is a suitable space available. Carpeted areas are preferred. Indoor battles require stricter rules, including no running, diving, or sliding.

Cancellation Policy

  • Cancel at least 6 hours before party start time for a full refund.
  • Cancel within 6 hours of party start time and receive a 75% refund.
  • A 25% late cancellation fee is retained for staffing and time costs.
