MANIAX Gold Coast Urban Axe Throwing Experience One Hour

About this tour

Expert coaches walk you through safety and technique before you spend the session hurling at targets alongside friends and family. It's competitive without being serious—a genuinely hands-on activity that leaves you with a tangible skill and the kind of stories worth retelling.

What to expect

You'll arrive and get a brief rundown of safety protocols and basic technique from the coaches. Then you're straight into throwing—axes at targets, with space to practise and refine your aim. The hour fills quickly with actual throwing time, not endless instruction. Expect some friendly ribbing when someone's axe bounces or sticks, and genuine satisfaction the first time yours lands clean. The venue is designed so you can watch others throw while waiting your turn, keeping the energy social rather than isolating.
