Everything You Need to Run an Epic Laser Tag Event

At Laser Tag in a Box, we’re here to make organising your event stress-free and FUN from start to finish. Whether it’s your first time or your fifth, this page will get you up and running in no time.

What’s in the Box?

We rent out everything you need to run laser tag at your place — no experience required!

Our most popular rental is our Awesome Taggers 12 Pack:

~ 12 Awesome Taggers (with red dot scopes)

~ Ready to play straight out of the box

You can also size up or down:

~ 8 Taggers (Small Party Pack)

~ 16 Taggers (Big Party Pack)

~ Go even bigger – 20+ taggers available!

How Do Teams Work?

Laser Tag is a team game by default — and we make it easy!
When your hire arrives, your gear will be preset for two teams:

Red team can only tag the Blue team (and vice versa)
Want chaos? Switch to Free-for-All mode using the Controller

Each team gets matching gear:

Blue Team: Bandannas, headbands, and a blue medic box
Red Team: Bandannas, headbands, and a red medic box

Pro tip: To avoid arguments, assign teams by lucky dip! Give each player a random coloured item (like a bandanna or lanyard) — it’s fair and fun!

How Easy Is It to Run?

Super easy. Seriously.

Your laser taggers arrive fully charged, pre-programmed, and ready for action:

5 hit points
50 shots per clip (auto-reloads when empty)
Just turn the tagger on with the key, wait a few seconds… and you’re good to go!

We include simple printed instructions in every box

Choosing Your Laser Tag Teams

All taggers come pre-set in two teams — half on the red team, half on the blue team.

Not sure how to split up the players? Here's a simple, drama-free way:

Try a Lucky Dip!

Give each player a random coloured item — a wristband, bandanna, or lanyard.

Whichever colour they draw becomes their team. No one gets picked last, and everyone’s included from the start!

BLUE TEAM

~ Half your taggers will be set to blue.

~ Includes a blue bandanna and headband per player (exludes Fun and Striker Taggers).

~ Comes with a blue medic box.

RED TEAM

~The other half of your taggers are set to red.

~ Includes a red bandanna and headband per player (for Awesome and Royale Taggers).

~ Comes with a red medic box.
