Family Activities

Forget Footgolf — Footdarts is the latest craze for Hen Parties in Kilkenny!

Armed with just your football skills step up to the board and see which of your group can get the highest score in “301”, “Around the Clock” or “Shangai”. If you want to get more competitive play team vs team in a game of Chase the Ace or Cricket! You also get the chance to test your Hurling skills in a game of Hurling Darts or try your hand at Archery Darts with our high-powered bows & Velcro arrows.

Now introducing the brilliant game of Body Bowling. While in a bubble, participants are rolled towards a set of inflatable pins to see who can knock the most. Just like regular bowling except you’re the ball! Let me hear you shout ‘STRIKE’!

That’s an exciting, stress free and super fun combo that all the family can enjoy!

Splatball is a lower velocity version of paintball and is one of our most popular family activities. It is very popular with both boys and girls but parents beware you could become the prime target!

Paired with our assault course Splatball is considered one of the most fun things to do in Kilkenny for children and families alike. So don your war paint at the Kilkenny Activity Centre and release your inner Rambo!

Bubble soccer is another one of our great family activities for a day out in Kilkenny. Parents can join their kids as they bump into and knock each other over like human bumper cars while trying to show off their football skills. Players can do backflips, dives, rollies or crash right into each other. Anything goes in bubble soccer but watch out if you lose your balance or fall over or you might find yourself stranded upside down…

Bubble Soccer is a team game where both teams have to devise a game plan to outscore each other – not an easy task when you the opposition treat you like a human bumper car!

Voted as one of the Best Things to do in Kilkenny!

“Hell’s Kitchen” Assault Course is a great activity for your family day out in Kilkenny. Similar to “Ireland’s Fittest Family” it offers a range of obstacles to include climbing walls, crawl nets, trenches, mud and a really fun water slide!

It is an activity suitable for all ages and is just a really fun thing to do in Kilkenny for groups of varying physical abilities. Great as part of a two activity package paired with either bubble soccer or splatball.

Paintball is suitable for 14 years upwards and is a really fun thing to do for your family in Kilkenny. Whether you are into sports or not paintball is a great activity if you’re just looking to have a laugh and spend some time with your family.

The games, which include ‘Capture the Flag’, ‘Protect the President’ and the ‘Hunger Games’, are designed to give a fun filled but safe experience that you will never forget. So for your family day out book paintball at the Kilkenny Activity Centre and release your inner Rambo…
