October 6, 2021 Layne Dawes

Nestled along the east coast of the Isle of Man, the small holiday resort of Douglas oozes charm. Visitors may enjoy horse-drawn tram rides along its pedestrian shopping promenade, dotted with restored 19th century buildings and lining the shore with independent boutiques and High Street shops. The new Villa Marina and Gaiety Theatre Complex entertain with all sorts of performing arts and films, while the gardens and museums sprinkled throughout the town promise relaxation and culture.

Mad Jack's Axe Throwing

Mad Jack’s is all about having fun with friends, work mates and rivals. Each session lasts 1 hour and includes a full introduction to the sport of Axe Throwing. You can take part in our Mad Jack’s challenges which includes a tournament and other fun games, or you can simply throw the axes and enjoy a few drinks. You will be given an “Axepert” to take you through the ins and outs and can even challenge them to a game to win a free piece of merch! Here at Mad Jack’s, no two sessions are the same, and we aim to be as flexible as possible to give you a unique experience. We offer a range of food in our new coffee shop which can be purchased during or after your session. Our gaming area is the perfect spot to enjoy your food and our retro arcade machines! Hot and cold non-alcoholic beverages are sold on site, however alcoholic beverages can be picked up from our friends at Bottle Monkey, where you will receive a 5% discount.

Such a fun evening at Mad Jack’s! The staff were great, giving us tips and guiding us through the session as most of our group were complete novices. We’d booked a hour and the time really flew....just like the axes! Can’t wait to return for another session, great fun for all ages.

We’ve got with work on 3 occasions now and every room has been brilliant. £19 each seems like a lot, however it’s well worth it and it’s not something you do every day. Staff are great and rooms are fun and some quite challenging. Highly recommended!!!
