How to Build a "Pop-Up" Laser Tag Arena at Your Place

Laser Tag is basically high-tech hide-and-seek. So, you need plenty of great hiding spots!

Playing High-Tech Hide & Seek

We're here to make it easy for you! We believe in supporting what we create, so get your players involved in designing and building your playing area.

When the players help create your pop-up maze, they’ll be way more invested in the games.

Rule of thumb: one hiding spot per player.

Below are some awesome ideas to help you set up a laser tag arena in your backyard, on your school campus, or in any open space.

Playing Laser Tag Around Trees

Trees are perfect for laser tag! They’re big enough to hide behind and already in place.

If you’ve got a yard or campus with mature trees, especially those with trunks as wide as a person’s head or more, you’re set!

Got acres of land? Even better.

No trees? Try a small grove of bushes. You can also add other obstacles to mix things up.

Inflatables

Gaming inflatables are perfect for backyards or school ovals. These large, soft play objects create an instant maze for fast, exciting gameplay.

We have three inflatable laser tag sets available for hire. Each set is quick to set up with an electric blower.

Each shape takes about 3 to 5 minutes per inflatable. Super easy!

Thrilled How Easy It Was

Taylah turned 14 & I wasn't sure how girls this age would go playing laser tag...
They absolutely love the concept and game. They couldn't believe how real the gaming guns were and loved the voiceovers and noises they made.
It was a service of a high standard. I appreciated the notes enclosed and demonstrated how to use the gaming guns and machinery.

The service was exceptional very professional, prompt reply and was very adaptable to my inquiry. I really enjoyed speaking to a person and not a machine.
Communication was very important with having only a week to organise the party I was a bit nervous ordering from interstate.

I was thrilled how easy it was to receive & pack goods back to QLD. There is nothing else you could improve - I think you have everything covered well.

Thank you.

Camo Nets

Got a jungle gym or treehouse? Throw camo nets over them to create an instant fort! Our nets are 2m x 4m — perfect for draping over almost anything.

No jungle gym? No worries! Stack some cardboard boxes and cover them with camo nets to make a sneaky hideout.

Drape camo nets over playsets, boxes, or any other objects you can find — it instantly creates an awesome camo fort for hours of fun.

So Friendly

I'd like to say a huge "thank you!!!" Laser Tag in a Box is fantastic. Everyone loved it! All ages! We had such a good time and the kids and their friends are still raving. Not only is your before, during and after support excellent (everyone I spoke to with your company has been so friendly and helpful every step of the way), so is the product. It all ran so smoothly I cannot express my appreciation. I have to add that value for money is also excellent. With having the use of it all weekend it really is worth it. I will be in touch next year for our school fete. Thank you again

Other Ideas for Your Pop-up Arena

Our customers have also used:

* Hay bales (great for quick cover!). If you're in the outback, you might be able to "seconds" for free.

* Barrels or pretty much any item that's big enough to hide behind.

* Cardboard Boxes. You might be able to collect some free boxes from your local hardware.

* Small outbuildings.

What else can you think of? Get creative!

Delivering Smiles All Round

Just a note to say thank you, a fantastic fun time was had by all, Rupert especially another great laser tag event for our family. A handful of intrigued passers-by enquiring where we got the gear from, who no doubt will be in contact with you directly for their own bookings. Thank you again for delivering smiles all round.

How to Inflate the Inflatables

Our inflatables are tough, portable, and rain-resistant. Ready for live-action games!

Watch our quick video on how to inflate them.

Remember: air expands in the sun, so don’t over-inflate!

Made from heavy-duty PVC, each inflatable has tie-downs to keep it secure. Note: these aren’t jumping castles. So, please don’t jump on them!

Really Enjoyed It

Hi there, Yes we will definitely consider Laser Tag again for the next holidays. All our kids really enjoyed it and the staff too. Cheers.

Let Your Imagination Run Wild

Turn your backyard into an instant maze! Kids love playing laser tag around anything they can hide behind.

From suburban backyards to school playgrounds, parents and educators have transformed spaces into Amazon jungles and desert forts.

Even a few leftover cardboard boxes can become an epic battlefield with a little paint and imagination.

Encourage your kids to build their own battlefield — anything goes! The more they help create, the more they’ll love the game.
