Laser Tag Birthday Party in Regina: What's Included, What It Costs and How to Plan One

<p>A laser tag birthday party in Regina is one of the easier parties to plan, because the venue runs the activity and you mostly need to show up with the cake. This guide covers what a kids party at District 306 includes, what the two packages cost, how the 75 minutes in the arena work, and what to sort out before you book.</p><h2>Who the kids packages are for</h2><p>District 306 runs two birthday packages for kids aged 12 and under: the <strong>Captain package at $325</strong> and the <strong>Colonel package at $375</strong>. Both are built around a private laser tag session, which means your group has the arena to itself and no strangers are mixed into the teams. Private sessions take players from age 6 and up, using lighter Valkyrie gear that suits smaller players.</p><p>If the birthday kid is 13 or older, the teen party guide on this blog is a better fit, since teens can also play public sessions and try coached axe throwing with a guardian on site.</p><h2>How the laser tag session works</h2><p>Every laser tag session at District 306 is 75 minutes in total. The first 15 minutes are a briefing and gear-up, where the kids learn the rules, get fitted with their gear and sort into teams. Then it is 60 minutes of game time spread across six missions.</p><p>Six missions matters more than it sounds for a party. A kid who falls behind in one game gets a fresh start in the next, and nobody spends an hour losing. It also keeps the group together for the whole hour, since there is no sitting out between rounds.</p><p>The arena holds up to 24 players in a session, so even a class-sized group can play together. Ask the kids to wear clothes they can move in. You can read more about the gear and missions on the <a href="https://www.district306.com/laser-tag">laser tag page</a>.</p><h2>Food, cake and the party room</h2><p>Pizza and pop are ordered through District 306, so you do not need to time a delivery driver to the end of the last mission. You are welcome to bring your own cake and snacks for the party room. Keep decorations simple. After an hour in the arena, the kids mostly want to sit down, eat and argue about who got who.</p><h2>What it costs</h2><ul><li><strong>Captain package:</strong> $325, for kids 12 and under</li><li><strong>Colonel package:</strong> $375, for kids 12 and under</li></ul><p>If you have a mixed group with older siblings or parents who want to play too, a private arena booking is another route. It is $400 Monday to Thursday or $480 Friday to Sunday for up to 16 players, with extra players at $25 each, and the party room is free for one hour after the game. Private sessions take ages 6 and up, so the younger players are still covered.</p><p>Full details on both options are on the <a href="https://www.district306.com/kids-parties">kids parties page</a>, and the <a href="https://www.district306.com/birthday-party-ideas-regina">birthday party ideas guide</a> compares options by age if you are still deciding.</p><h2>A simple planning timeline</h2><h3>Three to four weeks out</h3><p>Pick a date and book it. Booking early gives you the widest choice of times. Decide between the Captain and Colonel packages, and make a rough headcount, since the number of players shapes how the teams are set up.</p><h3>Two weeks out</h3><p>Send invitations with an arrival time 10 to 15 minutes before the session starts. The briefing begins on time, and a kid who arrives late misses the gear-up and the rules. Ask parents to confirm so you have a real number for the pizza order.</p><h3>The week of the party</h3><p>Confirm the pizza and pop order, pick up or order the cake, and decide whether other parents are staying or dropping off. Either works. The staff run the briefing and the missions, so you are watching rather than refereeing.</p><h3>Party day</h3><p>Arrive early, hand over the cake and snacks for the party room, and let the staff take it from there. The <a href="https://www.district306.com/getting-started-guide">getting started guide</a> covers what to expect on a first visit.</p><h2>Questions parents usually ask</h2><h3>How many kids can come?</h3><p>A session holds up to 24 players. If your group is bigger than the package covers, ask about the private arena option when you book.</p><h3>What age works best?</h3><p>The kids packages are for ages 12 and under, and private sessions take players from age 6. Six-year-olds and twelve-year-olds can play in the same session on the lighter Valkyrie gear, which makes mixed-age families and school friends easy to accommodate.</p><h3>Can an older sibling join?</h3><p>Yes. A private session has no upper age limit, so a 14-year-old sibling or a parent can play alongside the younger kids.</p><h3>Do I need to bring anything for the game?</h3><p>No. All the gear is provided and the briefing covers the rules. Your job is the cake.</p><h2>Why laser tag works for this age group</h2><p>Kids under 12 do best at parties where everyone is doing the same thing at the same time. Laser tag is team-based, every player is active for the full 60 minutes, and the six-mission format means the score resets often enough that the quieter kids stay in it. It also burns off enough energy that the party room part is calm.</p><p>District 306 is locally owned, at 614 Solomon Crescent in Regina, with laser tag, axe throwing and a rage room under one roof and over 1,000 five-star Google reviews.</p><p>Ready to book a laser tag birthday party in Regina?
