Can we bring alcohol to the centre?

No. Epic Paintball Events operates a strict zero-alcohol policy across all centres to maintain our 5-star safety record.

  • Safety & Insurance: Alcohol is strictly prohibited in both the base camp and game zones. Insurance requirements dictate that all players must remain fully alert and unimpaired.
  • Entry Requirements: Any player found under the influence, or attempting to bring alcohol onto the premises, will be excluded from the event without a refund.
  • Celebrations: We ask that all alcoholic celebrations be saved for after you have left the venue.

Can we eat lunch at the centre?

Yes, you are more than welcome to eat at our centres.
To ensure your group stays mission-ready and energised, we provide the following facilities and guidelines:

  • Bring Your Own Rations: We highly encourage players to bring their own packed lunches and plenty of fluids. Staying hydrated is the tactical key to a great day on the field!
  • Lunch Timing & Strategy: To maximise your time on the game zones, we recommend that players save their main meals for after their paintball session. There are short refreshment breaks between games for quick snacks and water to keep you moving.
  • Sheltered Base Camp (Safe Zone): Every centre features a large, sheltered base camp with picnic seating. This is your designated safe zone where parents, friends, and players can relax and enjoy their food during or after game sessions.
  • On-Site Recon (Snacks & Drinks): Our on-site shops stock a selection of cold drinks, chocolates, and light snacks should you need a quick energy boost between missions.
  • Important Catering Note: Please note that we do not offer on-site catering (such as hot meals), pizza lunches, or food delivery services. Please come prepared with your own food supplies.
  • Celebrating a Birthday? You are more than welcome to bring a birthday cake to the base camp to celebrate with your group after the games are done!

Do I have to fill out a registration form?

Yes. Every player must complete an online registration form before they are permitted to participate at our national centres.

  • Under 16s: Players under 16 years of age must have an online registration form completed by a parent or guardian.
  • Group Tip: We recommend sending the registration link to your entire group with your invitations to ensure a fast check-in.
  • Accessing the Link: Please ask your event coordinator for your unique group link when finalizing your booking.
  • On the Day: While tablets are available at the centre, waiting until the day of the event will significantly delay your check-in. Additionally, many centres are in remote areas where mobile signal and internet connectivity can be unreliable, so completing forms in advance is essential.

Does paintball hurt?

At Epic Paintball Events, your comfort and safety are our highest priorities.
While you may feel a slight “sting” similar to a quick flick of a rubber band, our industry-leading safety gear is specifically designed to minimise impact. To ensure a comfortable experience, we provide all players with:

  • Bespoke Body Armour: Our custom-designed plates protect the torso, significantly reducing the feel of any impact.
  • Full-Body Combat Suits: These thick suits feature integrated padded neck collars for extra protection in sensitive areas.
  • Full-Head Goggle Systems: Our goggles wrap entirely around the head, protecting the ears, temples, and face.
  • Professional Marshalling: Our marshals enforce a strict distance rule, ensuring no one is shot from close range.
  • Armoured Tactical Gloves: Highly recommended to protect your hands and knuckles, these are available for purchase at our on-site shop on the day of your event.

Pro-Tip for Comfort
For maximum comfort, we recommend wearing loose, layered clothing (like gym wear) underneath your combat suit. This adds a natural buffer while allowing you to move freely through game zones.

Does paintball still go ahead if it is raining?

Yes. Paintball is a premier all-weather activity, and our centres are fully equipped to ensure your group has a world-class experience regardless of the conditions.

  • All-Weather Facilities: Every centre features large, sheltered base camp areas to keep your group dry and comfortable between missions.
  • Secure Storage: We provide on-site lockers at all locations to ensure your valuables and dry clothes remain protected while you are on the field.
  • Weather & Cancellation Policy: In the unlikely event that a session cannot proceed due to extreme weather, safety concerns, or “Force Majeure Events” (circumstances beyond reasonable human control), Epic Paintball Events reserves the right to issue a full-value credit for the booking instead of a refund.
  • Credit Flexibility: This credit is valid for a future booking date at any of our available locations and is fully transferable to another person.

Pro Tip: British weather can be unpredictable! We highly recommend bringing a towel and a spare change of clothes to leave in your vehicle for a comfortable journey home. For any weather enquiries, call us on 0203 989 5996.

How many people do I need to make a booking?



There is no minimum or maximum group size; you can play with any number of participants or even join as an individual.

  • Mixed Groups: Smaller parties will be mixed with other players of a similar age or ability to ensure a balanced game.
  • Private Games: Groups of 50 or more players receive a free private game. Please note that private games will incur an additional fee should the group size be under 50 players.
  • Minimum Requirements: If no other players are booked for your date, a minimum spend may be required. Please enquire for specific requirements at your chosen centre.

Pro Tip: To guarantee a private session for smaller groups, consider booking for a mid-week date when the centres are typically quieter!
