Axes and Arrows

Bring something different to your event with Axes & Arrows. We provide professionally managed mobile axe throwing, target archery and crossbow shooting, delivered directly to your venue. Since 2021, we've provided activities for corporate events, team-building days, weddings, festivals, fetes, private parties and other events across the region. We offer a range of packages designed to suit different group sizes, venues and budgets. If a standard package doesn't quite fit what you're planning, no problem — we're happy to tailor an experience around your event. Everything needed is included. We provide the equipment, targets, range setup and experienced instructors, with no hidden extras and no corners cut. Our setups are flexible too. Depending on your venue, we can provide fully contained or open-field ranges, with our Rain or Shine covered setups available for outdoor events. Indoor setups may also be possible where suitable space is available. Presentation is important to us. Our ranges are designed to operate safely and professionally while also looking the part at your event. We want our activity area to complement the occasion, not simply look like equipment that's been dropped into a field. No previous experience is necessary. Our friendly instructors provide safety briefings, tuition and range management throughout, helping complete beginners get involved from their very first attempt. We can also introduce challenges and friendly competition to really get your group involved. Depending on the activities and package selected, we can cater for everything from small private groups to events with up to 120 participants. Activities are available from age 10+, subject to individual activity age requirements. We hold £5 million Public Liability Insurance, with risk assessments and method statements available where required. Tell us what you're planning and we'll help create an experience that works for you.

Axes & Arrows started in 2021 from a genuine interest in outdoor target sports and a simple idea — why not bring these experiences directly to people? We wanted to offer something different from the usual event entertainment: activities that people could actually get involved in, learn a new skill and enjoy alongside friends, family or colleagues. What began with mobile target sports has developed into a professional event activity business providing axe throwing, target archery and crossbow shooting at venues across the region. Over the years we've worked at everything from weddings and private celebrations to corporate events, team-building days, festivals, fetes and large public events. One of the things we enjoy most is introducing people to an activity they've never tried before. It's incredibly satisfying watching someone arrive convinced they won't be able to do it, then a few minutes later they're hitting the target and competing with everyone else! We've also always cared about how our activities are presented. Building a safe range is essential, but we believe an event setup should look professional and inviting too. That approach has influenced the design of our ranges, equipment and covered setups from the beginning. Our experience over the years has taught us that running a successful activity is about much more than simply providing the equipment. It's about engaging with participants, adapting to different abilities, keeping things moving and making life easy for the event organiser. That's still what motivates us today: creating memorable experiences, meeting new people and giving them the opportunity to try something they might never otherwise have done.

Axes & Arrows has been providing professionally managed mobile activities since 2021, building experience across a wide variety of events, venues and group sizes. During that time, we've delivered axe throwing, target archery and crossbow shooting for corporate events, team-building days, weddings, festivals, fetes, private celebrations, charity events and community occasions. Our experience ranges from smaller private bookings through to busy public events with large numbers of participants, requiring careful range management, efficient participant flow and close coordination with event organisers and other suppliers. Over the years we've continued to develop and improve our equipment and range designs, including fully contained setups, open-field ranges and covered Rain or Shine options, allowing us to adapt to different venues, available spaces and event requirements. Safety has always been at the heart of what we do. Our activities are instructor-led and professionally managed, with established operating procedures, safety briefings and range controls. We hold £5 million Public Liability Insurance, with risk assessments and method statements available where required. One of our biggest milestones has been taking the experience gained through years of mobile events and using it to develop Battle Park, our permanent outdoor activity venue near Ipswich. This has expanded our experience into running a dedicated activity site alongside our established mobile event services. After five years of delivering activities, we're still developing what we offer — but the principle remains the same: professional setups, experienced instruction and memorable activities that people genuinely enjoy taking part in.
