How to Make a "Pop-Up" Maze at Your Place

Think of Laser Tag and Water Royale as big games of "hide-and-seek". For it to work, you need plenty of places to hide!

You can make use of our pop-up maze kits, trees, barrels, fences, bushes, chairs, tables, and whatever else might be around your centre.

You can reuse the same hiding spots for both activities!

Keep in mind, you will need at least 1 place to hide per player. But ideally you'll have 2 hiding spots per player. The more places they can hide, the safer the activity.

Playing High-Tech Hide-and-Seek

Below are some awesome ideas on how you can transform your school hall or a sports field into an awesome laser tag / water royale game zone.

Playing Around Trees

Trees are perfect for laser tag & water royale! They’re big enough to hide behind and already in place.

If you’ve got an area on campus with plenty of trees—you’re set! Ideally, you want an area with some flat ground + grass between the trees as well.

You can fill in any gaps with our pop-up maze kits!

MAZE PACKS

Playing on Basketball Courts

If you have a court undercover, you can set up a load of inflatable shapes around the space to create a fun "pop up" maze.

Each inflatable takes about 5 minutes to inflate.

If you are planning to book a 12 pack you will want to hire 2 of our Mega Packs for a total of 16 hiding spots!

Soft Play Pieces

You can stack soft play shapes to create great hiding spots. As long as the final product is kid-sized it will work!

An alternative to soft play shapes is cardboard boxes. (Laser Tag only!)

These can be painted up (by the kids!) ahead of time. On the day, stack them up and stick them together with tape.
