Highlights
  • 100-150 York St - After a warm welcome to our axe-cellent venue, we will jump right into a safety briefing. This covers how to stay safe, scoring and competition rules (we can’t have any cheating at crunch time can we?). \n\nThen it is to the reason you guys are all here, the AXES! We’ll run through the basic technique, how to hold and how to throw the axe. Once we’re through this, it is down to you to have a go! The instructor will be on hand throughout the session, watching your throw, offering advice on how you can improve. What is really important to us is that you start to understand your own technique so when you finally leave, you’re a fully fledged axe ninja!\n\nOnce the basics are out of the way it’s quickly onto a wide selection of new throws, double-handed, throwing with the axe head facing backwards, throwing 2 axes at once. These will all help you to develop a strong technique in time for ..the team COMPETITION! Pit your skills against the others in your group, competition mode always brings out some strong axe game!\n\nFinally to end our glorious hour of axe throwing, we will take a group picture! (As long as everyone consents to the picture).

Additional Information

Hello, my name’s Gareth. I’m a seasoned axe thrower and the originator of Black Axe Throwing Co. I, along with my associates Kevin, Jake, Bronach, Alicia, Ryan and Jamie, will provide you with expert guidance from your initial throw. We’ll equip you with all necessary skills to achieve that thrilling first target hit. We’ll guide you through safety protocols and basic techniques, introduce some sophisticated throws that might surprise you, and then…time for the big challenge — the Golden Axe competition. Test your freshly acquired skills with us. If you’ve never gripped an axe before, have no fear, we’re here to guide you. Take inspiration from the 73-year-old grandmother we trained to throw two axes simultaneously! She aced it.

Great craic - Great craic to be had. Will and Anthony had good Belfast humour and were very helpful in guiding us how to throw the axes safely. Recommended for anyone visiting Belfast in a group or just looking to kill an hour with friends.

Axe throwing with great staff and good craic ! - I can’t recommend this activity enough! The staff were so helpful, friendly and great craic- they offered guidance which helped us to improve our axe throwing skills and to enjoy our time in the lanes. The staff made sure that everyone was kept safe throughout the activity, while also ensuring that everyone was enjoying themselves. This was our first time axe throwing and we can’t wait to go back ! Thanks so much to the staff! If you’re thinking of booking in I would highly recommend it !

Axe-ellent fun - Brilliant day out guys were great fun but kept safety a number one. Let my son who uses a wheelchair and is blind have a go before bringing everyone else in. They made our visit very entertaining and enjoyable experience for all. Highly recommend them to anyone from one person to a large group.

30th Birthday - I booked Axe Throwing as a surprise activity for my husband 30th birthday afternoon. We booked online using viator and when we arrived William was cracking jokes and made us feel so at ease. I was worried that because it at the end of the day your throwing axes it would be very strict but william made everything light hearted and absolutely made sure we had a get but ultimately making sure we were safe. William really made the experience even more fun for us.
