Axe-Tastic

Fantastic entertainment for all the guests at our Viking themed party. Clear instructions given throughout in a really friendly way. Great communication from start to finish. They even set up a child’s axe throwing area for those too small for the real deal. A lovely couple who made everyone feel at ease and have lots of fun. If you haven’t already, you should definitely get these booked in your diary. Absolutely excellent!

Fantastic Service and Experience

I'd 100% recommend Olde Era Events - we used them for archery and axe throwing for our company's summer party and they were amazing. Great communication throughout the booking process, and very friendly and knowledgeable on the day - these guys are super passionate about what they do and it really shows. I will definitely use them again.

Fantastic guys and fantastic service

For brilliant value, Phoenix provided an amazing axe throwing stand for our christmas party last week, which was enjoyed by everybody. The service provided was brilliant - Phoenix completely set up the whole stand himself, including providing lights as our event was at night. He and his colleague delivered the event in full armour costume, tempting everybody into competing against their friends in the side-by-side axe throwing lanes for longer than we had actually paid for! We enjoyed their service so much we asked them to stay for dinner. Would 100% use again, but I would do more than just axe throwing next time as it would be guaranteed to be a hit.
