White River Paintball is located just northeast of Indianapolis, in Anderson, Indiana, set on over 100 acres of land. It has been serving paintball enthusiasts since 1999 and is recognized as Indiana's largest outdoor paintball facility.
Twelve Unique Themed Battlefields
The heart of White River Paintball lies in its twelve distinct outdoor playing fields, each with its own personality and tactical challenges. Players can storm the beaches of Omaha Beach from a full-size landing craft with a working drop-door, or navigate the multi-story shipping container city of Cargo City. The Airstrip field features a real Sikorsky helicopter that saw action in Vietnam, while Cambodia drops players into a deep ravine with a downed airplane and jungle huts. Other fields include a two-story frontier fort called The Alamo, the urban chaos of Back Alley with junk cars and structures, the lightning-fast Skid Row, the classic wooded Woodsball, and the dune-filled Dunes. There is also a brand-new members-only Speedball field for competitive play. Each field is designed to offer a different flavor of paintball, from close-quarters skirmishes to sprawling tactical maneuvers.
Games for Every Style and Group
White River Paintball caters to a wide range of players through three main formats. Open Play sessions are held every weekend and on select weekdays, welcoming individuals and small groups with games like capture the flag, president, freeze tag, ambush, and medic — organized into separate groups for beginners and experienced players. Private Parties offer a fully exclusive experience: your own pavilion, a dedicated referee, and all-day private access to every outdoor field. These are popular for birthday parties, bachelor parties, youth and school groups, corporate team-building events, and friendly get-togethers. For those seeking a deeper immersion, the club hosts all-weekend Scenario Events several times a year, featuring elaborate storylines, hundreds of players, camping, and themed missions that unfold over three days.
Weekend-Long Scenario Adventures
The scenario events at White River Paintball are a major draw for dedicated players. These are large-scale, theme-based paintball games that run from Friday through Sunday, complete with camping on the facility's 20-acre campground. The upcoming "Battle for Backwoods" scenario, for example, pits Bonzo's Killer Clowns against the Tate Family in a narrative-driven conflict. Participants get a 3-day field admission pass, a 3-day camping pass, access to a scenario obstacle course, a team ID card, and a door prize entry card. Saturday night includes a free general admission ticket to Indy Scream Park, Indiana's largest haunted house park, located on the same property. These events also feature prize giveaways worth over $1,000, including markers, masks, tanks, and gear.
Thoughtful Amenities and a Welcoming Atmosphere
Beyond the fields, the facility is designed for comfort and convenience. Each private party reservation includes a private pavilion with picnic tables — a great spot for cake, pizza, or a cookout using your own grill. The pro-shop on site sells paintball gear, concessions, and offers rental upgrades like camouflage jumpsuits, body armor, and knee pads. Lockers are available for storing personal items. The staff includes dedicated referees who accompany private groups and oversee safety during open play, and party specialists who help coordinate group events. The club also offers annual memberships that include free field entry, discounted paintballs, free rental equipment, and access to the members-only Speedball field. The atmosphere is welcoming to first-timers while still offering plenty of depth for seasoned players.
Built for Celebrations and Team Building
White River Paintball is a natural fit for birthdays, bachelor parties, corporate team-building outings, youth group events, and school gatherings. Private parties can be scheduled any day of the week with advance reservation, and the club provides complimentary photos upon request. The birthday player receives a special MVP medal at the end of the party. For corporate groups, the combination of private play, team-based scenarios, and a relaxed pavilion area creates an excellent environment for bonding and friendly competition. The facility also allows outside food and coolers, and many local restaurants deliver directly to the pavilions. With its size and variety, the club can accommodate groups of all sizes while maintaining a private, personalized experience.
