Splatkidz offers low impact Paintball and LaserTag games and Birthday parties. We offer Paintball for kids of 8+ and Lasertag for kids of 6+ in the Colchester and Brentwood areas. We use special equipment, designed specifically for children. This enables us to provide a fun, safe, low impact version of the popular sport of Paintball, and a new exciting and immersive version of Lasertag especially for kids that lets them experience all their favourite video games but for real! Parents, older friends and siblings also love it too, and are also welcome to join in!

Took a group of young people from Inclusion Ventures and they had a great time - chance to let off some energy, have fun and do something brand new. All in a very safe environment - risk assessments and Covid covered We highly recommend this centre for kids of all ages

Colchester Climbing Project

When we started to put together the idea of what we wanted from our centre, we decided to put our customer’s needs at the forefront of what we want to offer. All this adds up to a place in which you can come and de-stress. We don’t want to just be a place that people come to climb, we want to be THE place that’s at the centre of their climbing lifestyle.

I booked an introduction session for £15, the instructor was brilliant, explained how to climb properly, answered all questions, demonstrated etc. I have been back since and plan to continue bouldering, really friendly environment and loads of different climbs to do! Highly recommend.

Valhalla Lanes is Essex’s first indoor axe throwing venue. Come and try your hand at the age old Viking sport of axe throwing. You will be transported back in time with our Viking decor. And once you start throwing and hitting the targets, you will find it hard to stop. It’s great fun for guys, girls and older kids. Come and join us at Valhalla Lanes and unleash your inner Viking.

Had a session at Valhalla lanes today with my other half and her parents, have to say it was one of the best days out I’ve had in a long time and we all loved it! They had great safety percussions implemented as well as being corona virus safe using masks, hand sanitiser and track and trace! Lovely guys and helped a lot with out technique and teaching us how to be true vikings! 10 out of 10 recommend will definitely be returning ????

Jump Street

Reviewed By gemmabD191JF

My daughter had her 6th Birthday party at Jump street Colchester. The party host was friendly and good with all the children and kept checking we were happy and had everything we needed. When we went into the party room, it was a good size and there was plenty of food, we had a dairy free guest who was also catered for without any problems. My daughter also loved her little gift bag and has already decided she wants another Jump Street party next year!!

Ultimate Ninja UK

Reviewed By Rachel1803 - Greater London, United Kingdom

Camping nearby we visted this place on a very rainy day for our 9yr old. The staff were so friendly and welcoming and enticed my partner to give it a go too. We have now returned the next day even though the sun is shining as they enjoyed it so much....second time for the 9yr old and my partner and even the teenager has just come out exhausted but smiling - really worth searching out and great staff make all the difference. (It's also an impressive looking gym and martial arts centre if you're around for longer!)

Jungle Adventure

Reviewed By Essexsunshine3

I recently booked Jungle adventure for my son’s 6th birthday party and was beyond impressed! From the first phone call I was reassured that they would take care of everything and they did! - A £50 deposit secured my booking, they supplied the party invites and I paid the final amount on party day. We arrived 15 minutes before the party was due to start and from then on they took care of everything! The staff were incredibly friendly and helpful, the venue was clean and the food was lovely! Would recommend them time and again. - Thanks guys!
