Venue of the month is London Docklands Laser

With the full force of ‘Storm Doris’ battering the most of the UK and Ireland, The Activity People’s indoor laser combat venues became even more popular as people ran inside for cover and competed in an intense military-themed experience! Due to this, there was no shortage of reviews and, after much delegation, we can announce that the March venue of the month is our London Dockland’s Laser Combat venue!

Following in the footsteps of the online shooting franchise of ‘Halo’, our London Dockland’s venue has taking the whole concept of Laser Combat to an all new level. With latest laser technology on hand to provide you with the most exciting gaming experience, our London Dockland’s venue also has full surround sound and SFX lighting to create a surreal, stunning, visual effect that transports you into the virtual world of ‘Star Command’! Your futuristic space war experience takes place in a multi-level arena, with hidden rooms and mazes providing as the perfect cover as you aim to take down the opposition!

With so much epic action to take part in, it’s no wonder that our London Dockland’s venue accumulated a whole array of positive reviews, just like those below!
