Planning a Unique Corporate Family Day? Try Zorbs and Nerf Blasters in Harrogate

Corporate family days have come a long way from buffet lunches and inflatable castles. In today’s fast-paced world, companies are looking for ways to engage employees and their families in a way that’s fun, active, and genuinely memorable.

So, what’s the secret to a successful event that both kids and grown-ups will love?

In Harrogate, the answer is clear: a Zorb Football and Nerf Gun combo party brought to you by Bubble Boy Events. It’s an energetic, inclusive, and completely unique experience that turns the average company gathering into a laughter-filled day of epic entertainment.

Let’s explore why these two action-packed games are perfect for your next corporate family day in Harrogate.

What Are Zorb Football and Nerf Gun Battles?

Zorb Football: Picture participants encased in giant inflatable bubbles, bouncing off each other while attempting to play football. It’s hilarious, safe, and entertaining for players and spectators alike.

Nerf Gun Battles: Think team-based foam dart warfare with inflatable bunkers, goggles, and action-packed scenarios like Capture the Flag and Team Elimination. It’s tactical, energetic fun that appeals to all ages.

Together, these games create a fun-fuelled event that promotes teamwork, laughter, and plenty of movement—no screens required.

Why They’re Perfect for Corporate Family Days

Corporate family events should be more than just a day off work—they should leave lasting impressions, strengthen workplace bonds, and give families a great day out. Here’s why this duo works so well:

✅ Inclusive for All Ages

From 6-year-olds to adults, everyone can get involved. Zorb Football is great for those who love physical play, while Nerf Gun battles suit those who prefer a little strategy.

✅ Encourages Team Building

Set up cross-department or family vs. family challenges to build connection and boost morale in a non-work environment.

✅ Memorable and Unique

These aren’t everyday activities. Your staff will remember your family day for years—and talk about it at the office on Monday!

✅ Fully Managed by Professionals

Bubble Boy Events takes care of all equipment, setup, game instruction, and safety—so HR and event planners can actually enjoy the day too.
