About

At Olde Era Events, we're not just any old event company – we're the place where laughter, camaraderie, swords and axes collide (in a good way, we promise) with a level of authenticity that no one else can offer!

Do you have an event or gathering coming up and need something staggeringly epic to elevate it?

Do you have a workforce itching for a unique experience that'll have them talking about it at every coffee break conversation?

Or do you just have so much money that you can afford a full-blown medieval lawn game tournament on your vast expanse of land to show off to the Braithwaites down the road and give them the middle finger?

Look no further! Our archery, axe-throwing and spear-throwing ranges are where the magic happens, and we'd love to be the centrepiece of your next unforgettable event.

But why should you consider booking our ranges for your upcoming shenanigans? Well, allow me:

Archer-tainment:

Our highly skilled instructors are not just experts in archery, axe and spear throwing, DBS checked, fully insured, first aid trained, and damn good-looking; they're also certified entertainers! They'll have you shooting arrows like a pro and lobbing axes and spears with the confidence of Ragnar or Achilles in no time, with a side order of some serious medieval banter…

Fully Customizable Fun:

We're all about options! Whether you're looking for a laid-back afternoon or a full-blown, epic tournament with prizes, we've got packages to suit every taste and budget.

Safety, Schmafety:

Your safety is as important to us as the string is to an archer. We'll outfit you with all the safety gear you need and keep a watchful eye to ensure no one gets too carried away (except with excitement, of course).

Location, Location, Location:

Did I mention that we're fully mobile? That's right! We can come to you no matter where you are. All we need is space to put the ranges up. We also have our own private location conveniently located in Otley, West Yorkshire, where the action is just a stone's throw (or axe toss) away. Ample parking means no need to wrestle for a spot.

Fun for Everyone:

Young, young-at-heart, or somewhere in between – our activities cater to all ages, making it the perfect choice for family reunions, corporate team building, medieval dick swinging and celebrations of all kinds.

Why are we different?

Sure, you could book another company with their plastic bows and neon green rubber arrows and instructors that draw eyeliner on their faces and call themselves Vikings… or you could choose a company that provides real medieval longbows, real arrows with real feathers, staff with real medieval armour and a knowledge base that would make an Egghead quiver! (See what we did there...?)

We have custom-built wooden ranges that are safe to use in ALL weather. Your peasants' guests will be dry no matter what the weather throws at you!

We're here to answer your burning questions and help you orchestrate an event that will go down in history as legendary.

Thank you for reading this far, and I hope you consider Olde Era for any upcoming events. We can't wait to welcome you and your band of merry adventurers into our world. Get ready for a day of hilarity, camaraderie, and bullseyes!

The most amazing wedding fun!

We had Olde Era Events doing axe and sear throwing for our wedding and it was absolutely fantastic! Everyone enjoyed themselves immensely and it wasn't just the sharp weapons, but also the energy and enthusiasm these guys brought to it all (including wearing full costume on what was a somewhat ridiculously hot day). All of the wonderful touches, from advice to rewards for those who did well (or not so well)! Would highly recommend them!
