We’ve been running laser tag parties for over 25 years, so we’ve seen (and heard!) it all.
Here are the most common questions we get asked and the answers to help you plan an epic event.
Laser Tag in a Box is easy to plan and play. First, you select how many people you'd like to play with at once. (We suggest playing in a round-robin format so lots of people can play!) Next, select the date you'd like and the model of tagger. If you're unsure which tagger suits you, ask! Then, we deliver everything you need to run your laser tag games — no staff needed. You set up and play as much as you like. Finally, pack the gear back in the box for return. Simple!
Yes! The gear comes ready to go. Just turn it on with the key. (We include the key on a lanyard.) Plus, we include step-by-step instructions and game ideas. There is also phone support if you need it.
Laser Tag in a Box is great for big groups or small ones. How many people can play at once? Well, that depends on how many taggers you rent. Our smallest set is for eight people to play at once. Of course, players can swap in and out so everyone gets a turn. Play in a round-robin format so everyone gets a go. For big events, we can rent a set of 20, 30, or even more players. Give us a call to see what we can do for you.
Yes—absolutely! Despite the name Laser Tag, there are actually no real lasers involved. The game is perfectly safe, and best of all, it’s seriously fun and exciting!
Instead of using paintball pellets or gel blaster ammo, laser tag uses an invisible infrared beam—just like the one in your TV remote. That means there’s no mess, no pain, and no need for protective gear like goggles.
In other words, Laser Tag uses harmless infrared beams (no paintballs or projectiles) so it’s completely painless and eye-safe. Nope—laser tag won’t hurt a bit!
The "laser" is actually just invisible infrared light, like the kind your TV remote uses to change channels. There are no projectiles, no stings, and definitely no bruises.
Laser Tag is high-tech hide & seek, so it's all about fun.
Whether you’re a parent looking for a fun and safe activity, or a teacher/educator searching for an engaging group experience, we’ve got you covered!

Our laser tag gear is great for school-age kids and up. Our laser tag kit will delight the preppies (about 5 years old) and excite the big kids.
This is a game for the young, and the young-at-heart!
Nope! We don’t use the traditional bulky vests. Since everyone’s different shapes and sizes, we’ve kept it simple and comfy. Some of our laser taggers have sensors just on the barrel, while others have sensors on the barrel plus a soft, adjustable headband. Easy and hassle-free!
Some of our clients have played laser tag in public parks after getting permission from their local Council. That said, if you’re after a private party vibe, the most fun usually happens right in your own backyard!
Absolutely! You’re welcome to pick up and drop off the boxes yourself to save on courier fees.
Just a heads up—if you’re ordering a large laser tag rental or adding inflatable hire, you’ll need enough space to transport the gear. For the box dimensions, click here.
The weight of the gear depends on which tagger model you hire. We offer four different types: Fun Taggers, Striker Taggers, Awesome Taggers, and Scorpion Taggers.
Most of our taggers are made from lightweight, durable polycarbonate, making them easy for kids to carry and run around with. The Scorpion Taggers, however, are made from metal—so they’re a bit heavier and better suited to older players or adults.

These lightweight taggers are perfect for little warriors!
Easy to carry and simple to use, they’re designed especially for younger players just getting into the game.

With more range and longer battery life, Awesome Taggers are perfect for bigger kids ready to bring a bit more strategy to the game.
