Archery Games Omaha sits at 11106 Q Street in the Millard area of southwest Omaha, Nebraska, sharing its space with sister venue Axe Games Omaha. It is the city’s only indoor archery arena tag facility, where two teams battle with bows and foam-tipped arrows in a dodgeball-style game.

Private arena rentals, youth hours for ages 7–11, and combo packages that pair archery with axe throwing round out the offerings.

The venue hosts up to 40 people and is a popular choice for birthdays, bachelor and bachelorette parties, corporate team-building, and family outings. Guests can bring outside food and use the table space beside the arena, while a fully licensed concession serves drinks and snacks. Skilled coaches referee every game and provide instruction, and the comfortable lobby offers a place to relax before and after play. Free parking and on-site lockers add convenience for groups of all sizes.

Common questions

What these games have in common is that they work for a group and badly for one person. Beyond that they differ in everything: impact, age minimums, session length and price. The tabs above split them, and the age of the group is usually the quickest way to choose.

Which place is right for us?

5 venues, and the fastest way through them is the tabs at the top: pick the game first, then let the filters handle the rest. The cards carry everything needed for a shortlist — game type, indoor or outdoor, starting price, rating, amenities — and More opens the full details.

What are the prices here?

The lowest entry price here is $9 per person, at Spare Time Omaha. Every card shows a starting price the same way, and starting is the operative word: it covers the simplest package, usually one game and basic rental. The final number depends on group size, how many rounds you play, and the day of the week — weekdays are cheaper almost everywhere, and groups of ten or more usually get a better rate per head.

Does the weather matter?

Both: 3 venues are indoors and 2 outdoors . Indoor arenas run the same way in February and July, which is the whole argument for them, and they suit younger kids and tighter schedules. Outdoor fields give you room, terrain and longer games — the trade is that a forecast can move your plans. If the date is fixed and the party is small, indoors is the safer booking.

What is there for a childrens party?

2 venues here are equipped for it: Birthday Packages — 2 venues, Party Room — 1, Party Host — 1. Not every place runs parties, so that number matters more than it looks — a venue without a party room can still host the game, but the cake and the presents end up wherever there is a table. Ask about the age minimum and whether outside food is allowed.

Can we get food and drinks there?

Usually yes: 4 venues have something on site — Lounge Area — 4 venues, Bar — 2, Soft Drinks — 1. Worth knowing before you plan the day, because a group that can eat where it played stays an hour longer and spends that hour celebrating rather than driving. If you want to bring your own cake or catering, check that specifically — policies differ and some venues do not allow it at all.

Can we make a whole afternoon of it?

1 venue has something beyond the game itself: Bowling — 1 venue, Arcade — 1. The others are built around one activity, which suits a group that knows exactly what it came for.

What should we expect when we get there?

On-site facilities at 5 of the venues: On-Site Referees — 5 venues, Gear Rental — 4. Small things, but they decide how the hour after the game goes. Each card carries the same icons, so you can scan the list without opening anything.
