Paintball in Austin, TX

Austin Paintball sits on 30 acres in Dripping Springs, Texas, about twenty minutes southwest of Austin, just off East Highway 290.

The facility offers six distinct outdoor paintball fields — Underground, Barrels, Ties and Tires, Cat Walks, Greg’s Place, and the intense Iwo Jima course — plus three impact levels so nearly anyone can play: high-impact .68 caliber paintball (12+), low-impact .50 caliber Turbo (8+), and soft-impact GellyBall (5+). Packages include sanitized masks, rental markers with all-day air, and paintballs, with extra paint available by the bag.

Beyond paintball, the venue adds axe throwing and is set up for birthday parties, bachelor and bachelorette events, company team building, and church groups. Visitors can bring their own food and non-alcoholic drinks, and the trained, safety-focused staff and attentive referees are widely praised. Open weekends for walk-in play with weekday private events, it’s a solid choice for families, friends, and corporate groups seeking an active day in the Hill Country.

Xtreme Paintball sits on more than 15 acres of rolling Texas terrain in Manor, a short drive northeast of downtown Austin, and is the closest paintball field to the state Capitol.

The club runs multiple courses, including a speedball field and the Cedar Village and Bamboo Village tactical arenas, all designed by former players and combat veterans. Big recreational games blend all comers into one group, with sessions opening on a thorough safety briefing and a minimum of ten players per match.

Beyond the fields, Xtreme Paintball provides rental equipment and is field-paint only for consistent performance. It hosts birthdays, corporate outings, bachelor parties, and team-building events, with private games available at an additional cost. The family friendly atmosphere and weekend public sessions make it a dependable outdoor activity just outside Austin.

Outlaw Paintball sits just east of I-35 on Grand Avenue Parkway in Pflugerville, Texas, a short drive from the Austin metro area.

The park offers four distinct outdoor fields—Hyperball, Fort Field, Spools, and Airball—covering everything from fast tournament-style matches and Capture the Flag to fort-defense sieges and beginner-friendly arenas. Open play lets walk-ons mix with other players all day, while private play reserves a field exclusively for a group. Group rates include paintball markers and face masks, and experienced referees keep every match fair, safe, and fun.

Outlaw hosts birthdays, corporate team-building days, graduations, family reunions, and charity fundraisers, with a bring-your-own-food policy and no outside catering fee. Two covered staging areas offer snacks, cold drinks, and shade between rounds, and after-hours bookings give larger groups the entire facility to themselves. Gift certificates are available, making it an easy outing for families, coworkers, and friends.

Lost Paintball sits on the north side of San Marcos, Texas, just off IH-35 along Hilliard Road, a short drive from the Texas State University campus and within easy reach of both Austin and San Antonio.

The venue offers three styles of combat sport — paintball, airsoft, and gel blaster — across five fields that include woodsball, speedball with air bunkers, hyperball, and concept layouts. Every group plays privately at no extra cost with unlimited time until closing, and the paintball rental package includes entry, mask, marker, all-day air, and 500 paintballs. Airsoft requires a reservation and is played in private groups, while gel blaster is recommended for younger players.

A pro shop with a gun tech, shaded picnic areas where guests can bring their own food, restrooms, concessions, and a kid-friendly nine-hole putt golf course round out the experience. The friendly staff and owner make it a welcoming spot for birthday parties, bachelor and bachelorette events, work outings, and family weekends, with free reservations and no penalty for cancellations.

Texas Paintball sits in the small lakeside community of Jonestown, Texas, roughly eight miles from Cedar Park and close to Lake Travis in the Texas Hill Country. Spread across 40 acres, the park offers ten custom-built fields ranging from fast airball courses to forested and two-story building scenarios, with three ways to play: traditional paintball (ages 10+), gentler low-impact paintball (ages 8+), and Sunday airsoft (ages 10+). Rental packages include gun, mask, pod pack, CO2 tank, and 500 paintballs, while self-equipped players can buy admission and paint separately.

The park is especially well suited to group events—birthday parties, bachelor parties, corporate team building, fundraisers, and youth groups—with private parties getting their own referee and weekday reservations available for exclusive use. A professional photographer can be hired, the staging area accommodates caterers and decorations, and the whole facility can be rented for larger gatherings. Memberships, a pro shop, and free CO2 fills round out the experience, with a knowledgeable staff and hands-on owner regularly praised by regulars.
