Kids Birthday Parties
Planning a birthday party for the kids? Not sure what to do?
Don’t worry, Archers Arena has you sorted with an awesome array of unique activities that will keep your little ones busy while you enjoy yourself.
Our activities can go from 1-hour long to 2-hours, and even to 3-hours! Each activity lasts for 1-hour and feel free to try one at a time, or mix and mash 2 or 3 at once!
Nerf Wars
Our go-to choice for the younger kids, age 6yo and up! Great for everyone of all ages to play so everyone can join in and shoot each other with our selection of guns!
The Nerf Surgefire can quickly fry opponents from afar with its quickly spinning barrels that can release its multiple darts at once or in rapid-fire succession for the distance! The Nerf Strongarm’s high-powered blasters make it easier than ever to take down foes in close quarters combat!
The other guns we have in stock are the Nerf MicroShots Zombie Strike Hammershot, Nerf N-Strike Elite Stryfe, and finally the Nerf Dart Tag Quick 16 Blaster. With a wide variety to choose from, each battle will be different, and for the space itself, we feature sniper towers, shields, Nerf footballs and building blocks. All of this can be played in a GLOW-IN-THE-DARK game setting, and you don’t need to worry about the darts as they glow as well!
Combat Archery
Want to take part in a family-friendly version of Hunger Games? Or just have an excuse to headshot your kid?
Our foam-tipped arrows make that possible and it's like playing extreme dodgeball with bows and arrows - only instead of being thrown into the mix when someone scores on their opponent, there are rules!
No other sport is like this when you’re shooting arrows at your opponent, and I guarantee you or the kids will have many memorable moments for their birthday.
Blacklight dodgeball / basketball
And without fail, our blacklight dodgeball or basketball option is a great way to finish off your activities. Play schoolyard games in a clean, warm, safe environment whether it’s dark or raining outside.
At any of these sessions, you can have a music dance party. You can provide the music or we can do it for you. You should wear bright-colored clothes so they will be easier to see and play with.
Karaoke party room
Don’t want to particpate in the activites?
Let our coaches handle your kids for at least 3 hours!
Kick back and relax with our unlimited billiards, foosball, and board games. The billiards and foosball table are unlimited free-to-play however many times you want, so no need to worry about bringing coins or spare change to play! For our board games, here are just a few out of our selection:
Jenga
Checkers
Penguin Trap
Exploding Kittens
Then after the kids are exhausted, fill them up with cake and food you want to bring, sing Happy Birthday with our premium karaoke HD sound system, which has 200,000 songs and YouTube.
Snap some pics in our balloon garlands booth with custom number balloons, our social media booth, or our most prized feature… The Iron Throne, Archers Arena Style

What’s Community Night?
Are you looking to try archery, but can't do it during practice hours? Well now there's an opportunity for everyone who wants in on some action!
Join us this month at our Monthly Social event - Community Night. We'll provide all equipment, just show up with your friends ready-to go!
Every first Friday of the month, we gather together at the Arena to shoot arrows and meet new friends. It doesn’t matter if you’ve picked up a bow before, or even played here before - it’s great for beginners to try out!
This is a great opportunity for anyone looking to try out their skills with archery or just want an excuse hangout on Fridays since classes are always cancelled anyways (ya know those lockdown days?)
The game is an excellent way for people who are interested in fitness to get their fix. It’s fun, it’s easy to pick up, and exercising without realising it by running, dodging, and shooting like Robin Hood.
There are digital targets to shoot at in the range as well! You and up to 6 of your friends can play together - with everyone for themselves by seeing how accurate you are, playing speed rounds (or both!)
Personal scores and stats can be generated and if you compare yourself across the different session, you’ll be able to measure your progress and improvement! Plus if one person has been playing longer than another maybe he knows some secrets that might give him an edge?
It’s a great way to improve before going up against our regulars, but what’s the fun in that? Community Night lets you dive straight into the deep end and lets you feel like a true archer while still having some laughs!
Come join the regulars and play with our coaches at 7pm! Hopefully we can get up and running again with the next session starting in February the 4th, if the lockdown ends…
New Year, New Lockdown
Omicron is currently all over the news and it seems like it's more contagious and better at escaping immunity than any other virus we've seen.
We at Archers Arena wish you the best to stay safe and healthy during this lockdown. Make sure to wash your hands, use sanitizer, and wipe down high-touch surfaces with non-toxic antiseptics.
Keep your stress low, diet healthy, and be as active as you can, and here are a few tips for you!
Do some work around the house
Do you have any chores or yard work that you have been putting off? Doing chores like shoveling snow, gardening, cleaning out the garage can be a valuable exercise that contributes to your strength, endurance, and heart health.
Take the stairs
If you live in a building with an elevator, you might want to take the stairs instead. This will help you get better at climbing stairs, burn more calories than running outside, and if you want even more of a challenge - carry additional weight or skip steps! Be careful if you do this.
Exercise in your backyard
If you have one, you can exercise outside and get some fresh air at the same time! If you’re feeling extra daring, you can even run a marathon in your backyard!
Workout from home
You can always work out at home. It is not required to have a yard. Make sure you have clear space and then you can do different workouts that are quick, easy, or high intensity. You can also use common household items to make the workout harder.
Go for a walk or a run
Going for a walk is good for your health. You can listen to music or talk on the phone. Always plan for a safe route, and bring items like money and identification, or your phone in case you need someone to help you.
Take a hike
Taking a long walk can be a good way to exercise. A nature hike will make you feel better and reduce your stress. It will also help you with endurance, muscle strength, and even reduce your blood pressure.
Saber Wars at Archers Arena!
That’s right, we offer saber war battles!
Now as safety is our number 1 priority, this activity isn’t pulling off fancy moves, jumping/floating around, and hitting each other as hard as possible - imagine more like Fencing or Kendo, where it’s tap-to-kill.
We have lots of game modes and objectives to spice things up! To list a few - Emperor vs Princess, Attack and Defend, King of the Hill, and Anakin Younglings.
Emperor vs Princess
The group splits into 2, and each side has a VIP to defend/attack. The VIP only has 1 life, while the non-VIP players have unlimited lives!
Therefore each side has to keep track of how many hits each enemy has and try to narrow down the unknown VIP!
In continuation with the Star Wars theme, the players that are on the Emperor side play with Nerf Guns, while the Princess side are armed with sabers.
Attack and Defend
In this game mode, one side attacks, one side defends!
Each person on the defensive side only has one life, and if they are hit by a saber, they’re out for the rest of the game. They also defend their base within a certain time limit, and if they’re successful, the defending team wins!
The attacking side has more lives - If they are hit, that person raises their saber up in the air to signify they are out, walk to the respawn point, and then they are able to come back in the game.
But don’t think it will be so easy! The defending team also have bunkers and shields they can use, so each side has to strategize properly to make sure they win!
King of the Hill
One person is selected as king, and the rest of the party has to knock that person off to reign as king! Each king has to last as long as possible and whoever is the last king, is the winner.
It is a game of endurance, wits, and tactics to remain and reign as the winning king!
Anakin Younglings
Finally, what you’ve all been wondering about! This is our favorite game mode out of them all! Here is a Tiktok video to explain everything below:
One person is to be Anakin, and only Anakin has the saber. Everyone else is the “youngling” and they do not have a saber. Younglings have to run away from Anakin and save their teammates by tapping them on the shoulder.
The aim of the game is to survive as long as possible, but if Anakin manages to reenact his movie scene then he will arise to become the fearsome Darth Vader!
Come live out your role-playing fantasy at Archers Arena!
Birthday Parties but with Nerf???
What makes birthday parties even more special? Being able to shoot at your friends with Nerf guns of course!
We cover many birthday parties but the ones with Nerf are especially fun as they’re great for kids and adults alike so everyone can join in. We have a great selection:
Our most popular guns are the Nerf Surgefire and the Nerf Strongarm.
The Nerf N-Strike Elite Surgefire has a spinning drum that holds 15 darts. This is a pump-action blaster that shoots darts up to 90 feet. Move the grip backward and forward to prime the blaster, then pull the trigger to fire one dart. To fire all 15 in rapid succession, hold down the trigger and keep moving the grip backward and forward to slam-fire all the darts!
The Nerf N-Strike Elite Strongarm blaster holds 6 Elite darts and fires the darts up to 90 feet. Its rotating barrel flips open for easy loading, and if you’re in a pinch, you can go into the Slam Fire mode, which by holding the slide lets you rapid-fire all 6 darts!
The other guns we have in stock are the Nerf MicroShots Zombie Strike Hammershot, Nerf N-Strike Elite Stryfe, and finally the Nerf Dart Tag Quick 16 Blaster. With a wide variety to choose from, each battle will be different, and for the space itself, we feature sniper towers, shields, Nerf footballs and building blocks. All of this can be played in a GLOW-IN-THE-DARK game setting, and you don’t need to worry about the darts as they glow as well!
Our Karaoke Party Room is just the right space for you if all this excitement is too much. It’s a great space to relax, bring in outside food and drinks, and BYOB. Inside we have unlimited billiards, foosball, board games, social media booths and not to mention again - a premium karaoke HD sound system!
