Great for children’s birthday parties, or for something to do after school or at the weekend with friends or family, Laser Station has it all. With a multi-level Indoor Laser Tag Arena, kids can let off some steam whilst having loads of fun at the same time.
We cater for parties, groups (i.e. Brownies, Cubs, Scouts, sports teams and youth groups), school trips, student nights, team building, corporate events and can offer a bespoke service to suit your needs.
Additionally, there is an option to play at Funstation, the family amusement centre, which allows each individual to test multiple motor skills, hand and eye coordination along with reaction time, special awareness and of course, some physical elements which are focused around skill and raw talent. It allows for everyone to participate no matter if you are a gamer, an athlete or just someone with a general lust for FUN. This will be an additional cost, so when booking please ask for details.
What makes us a great choice for education
Laser Station is located inside Fountain Park, one of Scotland’s biggest and most exciting entertainment destinations offering a wide variety of unique facilities in the city.
Laser Station brings the ultimate futuristic, adrenaline pumping adventure to be enjoyed by all the family! The multi-level arena lets up to 30 people use strategy, skill, communication and a little luck to work together to beat their opponents and defend their space base.
After all players enter our air lock, there will be a short video briefing followed by being armed with the very latest laser packs and phasors. You will then be transported into Laser Stations multi-level arena on a quest to defeat your opponents.
We also offer a ‘glow in the dark’ face paint option which not only helps to identify your team mates within the arena, but also makes you look fierce to the opposition!
All of this whilst having a huge amount of FUN at the same time!

‘AMAZING!!! Friendly Staff. Me and my friend were treated like Adults, considering our first game was against kids. Love the voice feedback on the vest. LOVE THE CUSTOM CODE NAMES!! (Mine was Maverick BTW) Definitely booking soon for my daughter’s Birthday Party.’
‘My son had his 9th Birthday Party here with 10 of his friends and it was absolutely amazing! The staff were extremely attentive and accommodating. It was very easy going. Kids played 2 laser missions, food, party bags, juice and water were included in the price, all I had to bring was the cake. They provided a gift and birthday card for my son as well as a free game voucher. They also provided invitations sent out by post in advance! Cannot recommend this place enough! Fantastic! Left with a very happy little birthday boy.’
