Things to Do in Regina: 12 Ideas for Groups, Families and Date Nights

Looking for things to do in Regina this weekend? Here is a local's list that works year-round, whether you have kids to tire out, a date to impress, or a group that can never agree on anything. ACTION AND ADRENALINE 1. Tactical laser tag at District 306. Not the glow-in-the-dark kind. You get a weighted rifle with recoil, a vest, and six missions over 60 minutes of game time. Public sessions are $25 per person on weekdays and $30 Friday to Sunday, ages 13 and up. Private sessions open it up to ages 6 and up. 2. Axe throwing. Coached lanes with projected digital targets and 15 game modes, from $20 per person for an hour. No experience needed; most first-timers are sticking axes within ten minutes. 3. Rage room. Coveralls on, helmet on, and a room full of things you are allowed to break. Sessions start at $45. All three are under one roof at 614 Solomon Crescent, which makes District 306 one of the easiest group nights in the city. Over 1,000 five-star Google reviews back that up. CLASSIC REGINA 4. Walk, bike or paddle Wascana Centre, one of the largest urban parks in North America. 5. See Scotty the T. rex at the Royal Saskatchewan Museum. 6. Tour the RCMP Heritage Centre. 7. Take the kids to the Saskatchewan Science Centre and the Kramer IMAX. 8. Tour the Saskatchewan Legislative Building. The guided tours are free. GAME DAY AND NIGHTS OUT 9. Catch the Roughriders at Mosaic Stadium or the Pats at the Brandt Centre. 10. See a show at the Globe Theatre or Conexus Arts Centre. 11. Work through the local craft breweries and the restaurants in Cathedral Village. 12. Browse the Regina Farmers' Market on a Saturday. WHAT TO DO IN REGINA WHEN IT IS COLD OR RAINING Most of the classic list is outdoors or quiet. When it is minus thirty, or your group wants to move, indoor action is the answer. Laser tag, axe throwing and the rage room run all year in a heated facility, and you can stack two activities in one visit. THINGS TO DO IN REGINA FOR TEENS Teens 13 and up can join public laser tag sessions and throw axes with a guardian on site. It is the rare activity they will put their phone down for. THINGS TO DO IN REGINA FOR COUPLES An hour of axe throwing followed by dinner beats another movie night. Book a lane, keep score, loser buys. PLAN YOUR VISIT Book online at district306.com or call 306-737-9952. Groups of 8 or more should look at private bookings: you get the whole arena, custom teams and a party room.
