Why You Should Throw An Axe-Throwing Birthday Party

Looking for unique birthday party ideas? Why not plan an axe-throwing party this year? 

Axe throwing is a safe and exciting activity for middle schoolers, teenagers and adults. It presents a physical challenge, creates a sense of accomplishment, allows you to spend time with friends and family, and is really fun!

Keep reading to learn why you should plan an exciting axe-throwing birthday event at Axel’s Throw House!

1. Axe Throwing Is Exciting And Safe

From a young age, we’re taught to be careful around sharp edges — so you might be concerned about the safety of this activity. However, if you visit a reputable establishment, axe throwing is very safe — even for kids. The axes aren’t as sharp as you might expect, and it’s actually pretty difficult to cut yourself on them. Additionally, at Axel’s, we use an anti-bounce-back system around the targets to ensure the axe will fall straight to the floor if you miss the target. 

Before letting your birthday party group loose to have fun, Axel’s in-house axeperts will provide safety training and show you how to throw the axes. Safety is our No. 1 priority at Axel’s, so we take these trainings seriously. Luckily, it’s pretty simple — axe throwing doesn’t require experience, and anyone can learn how to do it. Part of the fun is learning something new. 

We’ll equip your group with everything you need to ensure everyone leaves our birthday party venue as safe and healthy as when they arrived. Our axeperts will also stick around to answer questions and help you improve your throws.

2. Young Kids Will Love Axe Throwing

Going to an axe-throwing birthday party is really exciting for young kids. It gives them an opportunity to build confidence and release some of that never-ending energy. They’ll learn valuable lessons about perseverance and having the courage to try new things. Plus, taking your kids to an axe-throwing venue is a fantastic way to demonstrate your confidence in them and help them develop maturity. 

Most axe-throwing venues have clear age limits, so you can easily check what ages are the best fit for this activity. At Axel’s Throw House, we offer axe throwing for everyone ages 10 and up. The most important thing is that participants are able to follow instructions and safety guidelines. 

Before playing, participants will fill out a short waiver explaining the rules. For kids and teenagers under 18, a parent must fill out their waiver and accompany them to the venue. This ensures that everyone follows the rules and stays safe.

3. Axe Throwing Is a Bonding Experience

If you’ve looked for birthday party places for teens, you’ve probably come across venues like bowling alleys, adventure parks or drive-in movies. The best option for your family depends on your child’s personality and personal preferences, but they have one thing in common — they allow your kids to bond with their friends and family members. 

With this in mind, we think axe throwing is the best way to go above and beyond this year. It provides a mix of adventure and excitement and could well become one of your child’s favorite activities. Axe throwing is unique, and it makes a great bonding activity for your child and their friends. Kids can engage in some friendly competition, encourage one another to improve their throws and make memories that they’ll reminisce about for years!

4. Axe-Throwing Parties Are Affordable

Every axe-throwing venue is different in terms of cost. Usually, participants pay per lane for a certain amount of time. However, for events like birthday parties, you can choose a party package with a built-in discount. 

The Axel’s Throw House Kids Birthday Party Package includes 10 people, with a reduced cost for each additional guest. When you book a package, you can save on the overall cost while still enjoying a premium experience — with additional party perks like pizza, soda and a dedicated group axepert. Kids birthday parties are available Saturdays from 12 p.m. to 5 p.m. and Sundays from 12 p.m. to 7 p.m. Check out our birthday party page for more details!

You can also ask yourself, “What’s the cost of not going axe throwing?” You, your friends and your kids will miss out on this exciting experience and the opportunity to create memories with the people who matter most. You can always do what you did last year — but where’s the fun in that?

5. You Can Bring Cake to an Axe-Throwing Venue

You can 100% bring your own cake to an axe-throwing birthday party! When you book a birthday party at our premier axe-throwing lounge, we’ll help you turn the venue into a party atmosphere. In addition to encouraging you to bring your own cake, here are a few ways we’ll help make the day special:
