🎯 Nerf Wars SWAT Party
Build the field, pick your team, take the objective. Two hours, 36 blasters, properly refereed.
We turn your hall into a field — barricades, camouflage, tunnels, 36 blasters and 30 sets of goggles — and your Tickety-Boo entertainer referees the whole thing from the front. Nobody brings anything.
Looking for a Nerf party in Birmingham, Solihull or Sutton Coldfield? This is the daytime version: no UV, no blackout needed, works in any hall with the lights on.
🎥 Every kind of party we run, in 90 seconds
Watch it through and you will know exactly what you are booking.
⭐ What makes this different from a hall full of Nerf guns
It is refereed, not supervised. Teams, objectives, scoring and the calls all come from the front. The difference between a structured Nerf party and thirty children with blasters is about ninety seconds of chaos, and we have spent twenty years learning how to avoid it.
The children build the field. Barricades, camouflage and tunnels, moved and rebuilt between games. It is half the fun and it gives the room a breather between the fast rounds.
Training first, battles second. Blaster basics, safety, target practice and agility work before anybody plays a game, so even the child who has never held one can hit something.
Five game formats, not one game five times. Capture the Flag, Free For All, Last Man Standing, Battle Royale and the target range, pitched at the ages actually in the room.
Mums and dads can play. They nearly always end up on a team, and the children love nothing more than taking a parent out.
🎉 What's included in your Nerf Wars SWAT party
🎤 Two hours, hosted and refereedYour Tickety-Boo entertainer runs the whole thing from the front — safety briefing, teams, scoring and the calls. Nobody is left to work it out themselves.
🔫 36 blasters, in the price30 multi-shot blasters, 5 easier-action blasters for the younger or smaller hands, and 1 mega blaster. Darts included. Nobody brings anything.
👓 30 battle gogglesEveryone wears them. No goggles, no game — that is the rule and we hold it.
🛡 Barricades, camouflage and tunnelsA proper field built in your hall rather than a few chairs pushed about, and the children help build it.
🎯 The target shooting rangeAccuracy rounds between the battles, so it is not two solid hours of charging about.
🏅 A medal for every childSweets, the big goodbye and a Tickety-Boo medal each, handed over by name.
🌑 Want it in the dark instead?
Our Neon Nerf Wars In The Dark is this same party run under powerful UV cannons, with neon camouflage and darts you can watch fly. Same price, same £350 — the only question is whether you can get the room dark. Evening works, a hall with blinds works, and our own Solihull venue has blackout blinds so any time of day works there.
🕒 How your two hours run
1We arrive 30 minutes early and build the field. You do not need to help.
2Goggles on and the safety briefing. Nobody fires anything before this.
3Combat training and target practice, so everyone can actually hit something.
4The children help build and move the barricades.
5Into the team games, with the formats pitched at the ages in the room.
6Food break just past halfway, with Happy Birthday before it so you have time to cut the cake.
7Back in for the big ones — Capture the Flag, Last Man Standing, Battle Royale.
8Medals, sweets and the big goodbye. We clear away around you.
🎯 The games
Blaster basics and safety training · Combat training and target practice · Barrier building · Agility training · Capture the Flag · Free For All · Last Man Standing · Battle Royale — five main game formats plus the training rounds, pitched at the ages in the room.
Nobody sits out for long. Some of the battle games have children tagged out — that is the point of them — but rounds are short and they are straight back in. We watch for the child who keeps going out early and we fix it.
⭐ The birthday child is the star — however they shine best
Some children want the front, the microphone and every eye on them. Others find that the worst thing imaginable. Both are completely normal and we have seen both a thousand times.
Tell us when you book if you have any worries — shyness, anxiety, Autism, ADHD, sensory sensitivities, anything at all. We adapt the pace, the volume and how we bring them in.
Two of our own children have Autism and ADHD, so this is personal rather than a policy line. We would always rather have that conversation before the day than on it.

❓ Questions parents ask
What do I need to provide?
The venue and the food. We bring the blasters, the darts, the goggles, the barricades, the targets and the medals. You will need a standard mains socket and a clear hall floor — the bigger the better, because the field is what makes this party work.
Is it safe? My child is on the small side.
Yes. Goggles are compulsory, every child gets the safety briefing before a single dart is fired, and we referee it from the front rather than handing out blasters and standing back. The 5 easier-action blasters are there precisely for the younger end — they need less hand strength, and a grown-up can help with the pumping if needed.
Can the parents join in?
Yes, and they usually do. Dads in particular tend to arrive planning to stand at the back and end up on a team within twenty minutes.
Can we add a disco to it?
Yes — plenty of people do, so there is something for the ones who would rather dance than battle. Tell us when you book and we will split the two hours between the two.
How much space do you need?
As much clear floor as you can get. A church hall, community centre, school hall or sports hall is ideal. The field needs room for barricades, tunnels and two teams moving past each other, so a small front room will not do it. Send us your venue and we will tell you honestly whether it will work.
What about the deposit and paying the balance?
A £20 deposit secures your date. The balance is payable on the day by card, cash or BACS. No booking fee.
Can somebody in our family wear the mascot costume?
Yes, and that is the £25 surprise mascot. It is cheaper than having one of our team wear it because we are already at your party, so there is no journey to pay for. Any of our headed mascots — tell us which one when you book. Two things to know: the costumes fit somebody 5ft 3in to 6ft of small to medium build, and we ask that another grown-up walks alongside them, because the heads have very little vision. Most families run the reveal themselves, and the birthday child usually enjoys that more than a stranger in a suit.
Do you cover my area?
Birmingham, Solihull, Sutton Coldfield, Coventry and the surrounding West Midlands. Not sure? Ring and ask — you will get a straight answer in about ten seconds.
