Looking for a fun-filled outdoor adventure the whole family can enjoy? Our BattleZone open sessions bring together families, small groups and individuals for fast-paced, friendly laser tag games in the heart of the Cairngorms.
Youâll join other families, small groups and often a few birthday parties as you go head-to-head in a series of short missions using our outdoor laser tag kit. With multiple lives and respawns, everyone stays in the action â no sitting out, no bruises, just non-stop fun.
Based in Grantown-on-Spey, our open sessions usually run at weekends and during school holidays, making them a great way to get the kids off the screens and into the fresh Highland air.
Open sessions are great for families and small groups playing alongside other members of the public. Recommended for ages 8+.

BattleZone Open Sessions FAQs
The questions weâre most often asked about our public BattleZone sessions.
What is a BattleZone open session?
An open session is a public BattleZone game where families, small groups and individuals book into the same timeslot. We group players into teams and run a series of short missions so everyone gets plenty of time on the battlefield.
Who will we be playing with?
Youâll usually play alongside a mix of families, small groups and sometimes birthday parties. We aim to match similar ages and abilities where possible so the games stay fun and fair for everyone. If youâd prefer a session just for your own group, please get in touch via our group enquiry form.
What age is BattleZone open suitable for?
BattleZone open sessions are recommended for ages 8 and above. Children, teens and adults can all play together, and our marshals will adapt the game formats to suit the mix in your group. For younger children or party-specific options, see our dedicated parties information.
Do adults and parents join in too?
Yes â and we actively encourage it. Adults, parents and carers are welcome to play alongside the children. Many families say BattleZone is at its best when everyone gets involved in the missions together.
Does it hurt like paintball?
No. BattleZone uses infrared laser taggers, not paintballs. There are no bruises, no stings and no mess â just sound effects and vibrating feedback when youâre hit, making it ideal for mixed-age family groups.
What should we wear?
Please dress for being active outdoors, with comfortable layers and sturdy closed-toe shoes or trainers. Darker colours can help you blend in, and a light waterproof is useful if the weather looks changeable.
Can you run extra sessions for our group?
Often, yes. If you have a group and canât see a suitable time online, please contact us via our group enquiry form with your preferred date, time and numbers and weâll let you know what we can offer.
How do we book an open session?
Families and smaller groups can check live availability and book straight into an open session using the Book Now button at the top of this page. For larger groups or exclusive BattleZone sessions, please use our group enquiry form so we can help plan the best option for you.
