Are you organising a festival or fair and want to add axe throwing?
We can provide a fun, novel axe throwing activity directly to your participants for the duration of your event.
All you need is an indoor or outdoor space that is a minimum of 6m x 1m* and a ceiling height of at least 3m
Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit. Sed non risus. Suspendisse lectus tortor, dignissim sit amet, adipiscing nec.
*NB: This is the minimum space needed for one axe throwing lane. Additional space will be needed for spectators to stand outside of this area. Also, larger events may require more throwing lanes and therefore a larger space.
What We Provide
We can set up and run a pop-up axe throwing activity at your festival.
Each session includes all the equipment, coaching and safety guidance to ensure a safe, competitive and highly entertaining event!
Experienced Axe Coaching
Our Axe Coach, Pete “The Axe Thrower” George, has coached over ten thousand first-time axe throwers
Pete will help each thrower to find a throwing style that suits them best and also introduce them to a variety of fun throwing games
Professional End-Grain Targets
Our axe throwing targets are robustly constructed, with the target at eye height
They are made with end-grain blocks to aid sticking, as per traditional axe throwing
We provide up to 2 targets (depending on space), although extra targets can be provided at additional cost
Variety of Quality Axes
We have a variety of axes to suit different throwing styles and to reflect the variations in the axe throwing world
You can choose between a medieval style tomahawk or a competition standard throwing hatchet – although we often find most people prefer the standard DIY hatchet!
Safety Equipment
We will assess each venue to ensure adequate safety equipment is provided to protect throwers and the location
As necessary, we will provide safety netting to surround the targets, rubber matting to protect hard floors and appropriate throwing/safety line markings
Public Liability Insurance
We work hard to ensure that there are no accidents of any kind, but for extra peace of mind we are also insured for up to £5 million for any claims made by the public for injuries or damage to property
Risk Assessment
We will do our own risk assessment for each location and provide appropriate mitigation of risks, eg safety equipment
We will provide you with a risk assessment document if required. This may be useful, particularly if you are hiring a venue
How Does The Festival Activity Work?
Your participants will be able to throw axes with us at any time during the festival. They will be charged a small fee for throwing, which they will pay directly to us. This fee can be changed to suit your event (by prior arrangement), but otherwise is set as:
Participant charge:
3 throws for £2
10 throws for £5
We will provide all the instruction and supervision needed.
Festival Organiser Charge
We offer two alternative ways for you to receive income from the activity
Pitch Fee
For festivals charging a vendor pitch fee, we will pay the appropriate fee as agreed in advance
Percentage of Income
Alternatively, we will pay you 10-15% of the income received from the participants
