It’s active, inclusive, and 100% fun.

Now, let’s find the best open spaces in Gillingham to make it happen.

🌳 Top Outdoor Venues in Gillingham for Zorb & Nerf Parties

1. The Great Lines Heritage Park

One of the largest green spaces in Gillingham, Great Lines is perfect for large parties. With expansive open grassland and easy access, it’s ideal for both Zorb Football and Nerf battles.

Why it works:

• Plenty of room for two separate activity zones
• Central location with nearby parking
• Popular spot for family events

Pro Tip: Book early if you’re planning during school holidays, as this park gets busy.

2. Grange Road Recreation Ground

A well-maintained, family-friendly park tucked away near central Gillingham. It’s less crowded than larger parks but still spacious enough for 10–20 kids to enjoy back-to-back Nerf and Zorb action.

Best for:

• Medium-sized parties (10–15 kids)
• Quiet, local atmosphere
• Easy access from local neighbourhoods

3. Beechings Playing Fields

Another great option for outdoor parties, Beechings Playing Fields offers wide open areas that are suitable for both Nerf zones and Zorb runs.

Highlights:

• Ample space for inflatables and zorb setup
• Less foot traffic than some central parks
• Parking nearby

It’s also ideal if you’re combining the party with a picnic or birthday tea afterward.

4. Darland Banks

Looking for a more unique, semi-rural outdoor experience? Darland Banks offers rolling grassland and open trails—not your typical party spot, but fantastic for Nerf battles in a more adventurous setting. Zorb Football may require flatter ground nearby.

Caution: Best suited for older kids and families who want something different.

🧒👧 What to Consider When Choosing an Outdoor Venue

When selecting your outdoor venue for a Zorb Football and Nerf Gun party in Gillingham, here are a few key things to keep in mind:

• Flat, open ground – Zorb Football requires even terrain for safe play
• Space for bunkers and team zones – Nerf requires some distance between boundaries
• Accessibility – Ensure there’s nearby parking and toilets (especially for younger kids)
• Permissions – For public parks, you may need to notify or get permission from Medway Council (Bubble Boy Events can guide you)
