Planning an unforgettable kids’ party in Chester? Nerf Gun and Zorb Football parties are two of the most exciting and popular choices—and when you combine them, you get double the fun and none of the stress.

At Bubble Boy Events, we’ve hosted hundreds of these action-packed parties across the UK, including right here in Chester. And while the kids always walk away thrilled, parents naturally have some questions before they book.

So, to help you plan with confidence, here are the top questions parents ask about Nerf and Zorb Football parties—all answered!

1. What age group are Nerf and Zorb Football parties suitable for?

Our Nerf Gun Parties are ideal for children aged 6 and up, while Zorb Football typically works best for ages 7 and older due to the size and weight of the zorbs.

If your child’s party will include a mix of ages, we’ll tailor the games and activities accordingly to make sure everyone feels included and safe.

2. How long do the parties last?

Most combo parties run for 90 minutes to 2 hours, with an equal split between Nerf Gun and Zorb Football. This gives kids time to fully enjoy both activities without feeling rushed—or overtired!

If you need a shorter or longer session, we’re happy to adjust the timing to suit your venue booking or party schedule.

3. What equipment is included in the package?

Everything is taken care of! We provide:

For Nerf Gun Parties:

  • A range of Nerf blasters
  • Foam darts
  • Inflatable obstacles and barricades
  • Safety goggles
  • Game organisers/referees

For Zorb Football:

  • Zorbs sized appropriately for children
  • Goals and footballs
  • Supervised gameplay
  • Extra zorb games like Bulldog and Sumo

All you need to do is book your space, invite the guests, and leave the rest to us.

4. What type of venue do I need in Chester?

We’re very flexible! Bubble Boy Events can set up at a range of venues in Chester, including:

  • Indoor sports halls
  • School gyms
  • Community centres
  • Outdoor playing fields

For Zorb Football, we prefer flat, grassy outdoor spaces or sports halls with good headroom. For Nerf parties, any hall or open space with room to run around will work.

If you’re unsure where to host your party, just ask—we can recommend trusted venues across Chester.

5. Is it safe?

Yes, absolutely. Safety is our top priority. All equipment is cleaned and maintained regularly, and our experienced staff supervise every game. We provide safety goggles during Nerf battles and always check that zorbs are securely strapped and used appropriately.

Games are designed to be fun and energetic, but never dangerous.

6. Do you provide party extras like invitations or medals?

Yes! We offer a range of optional extras to make your event even more memorable, such as:

  • Printable party invitations
  • Medals or certificates for all players
  • Party bags on request
  • Add-on games or extra time

You can customise your party to make it as simple or as special as you like.

7. What should kids wear?

For both Nerf and Zorb Football activities, we recommend:

  • Comfortable, activewear-style clothes
  • Trainers or sports shoes
  • Long sleeves and trousers (especially for Nerf)
  • No jewellery or loose accessories

Kids will be moving a lot, so dress for action!

8. How far in advance should I book?

Weekends and school holidays fill up fast, so we suggest booking at least 4–6 weeks in advance to secure your preferred date and time.

That said, if you’re planning something last-minute in Chester, give us a call—if we can fit you in, we will!

9. How much does it cost?

Prices vary depending on location, group size, and extras, but our combo parties are competitively priced. We aim to give you top-tier fun and value without breaking the bank.

10. What happens if it rains?

For outdoor parties in Chester, we always recommend having a backup indoor venue or a covered option if possible—especially with unpredictable UK weather.

If you’re only planning an indoor Nerf session, then no worries! Rain won’t affect the fun at all.
