What is a Nerf party?

A Nerf party is a supervised, coordinated Nerf battle run by trained coaches, using foam blasters and inflatable bunkers or obstacles. Nerfpalooza Burbank brings all equipment to your location and runs organized games rather than free-for-all shooting, making it safe for birthdays, school events, and festivals across the San Fernando Valley and Greater Los Angeles.

Question 3

How far in advance should I book a party?

We recommend booking 2-4 weeks in advance, especially for weekends and peak summer season, since we operate on a first-come, first-served basis. Contact us early to check availability for your preferred date in the Burbank and San Fernando Valley area.

Question 5

Is Archery Tag safe for kids?

What is bubble soccer?

Accepted Answer

Bubble soccer is a hilarious twist on traditional soccer where players wear giant inflatable bubble suits, letting them bump, bounce, and roll into each other while trying to score goals. Nerfpalooza Burbank brings the bubble suits and setup right to your location — it's safe, high-energy fun for ages 10 to adult.

As with any service industry, gratuities are entirely at your discretion based on your satisfaction with the experience. Our coaches are passionate about creating memorable events and love what they do.

Question 12

What types of Nerf guns do you use?

Accepted Answer

Nerfpalooza Burbank uses a variety of reliable, high-performance blasters including Nerf Disruptors, Nerf Surgefire models, Mega Elites, Nerf Rivals, and select X-Shot brand blasters. We've tested dozens of models and chosen these because they load quickly, shoot accurately, have good range, and rarely jam.

Question 13

Do you have liability insurance?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Nerfpalooza Burbank carries comprehensive liability insurance for all events. Our coverage meets or exceeds industry standards and venue requirements. If your HOA, park district, school, or venue needs a certificate of insurance, we can provide that documentation directly to them in advance of your event.

Question 14

If my guests arrive late, can we extend the party time?

Accepted Answer

Our events run on a tight schedule since we often have multiple bookings throughout the day. We recommend starting battles 15-30 minutes after your official party start time to allow for late arrivals. If you need additional time, you can add 30-minute extensions for $100 each, subject to our availability that day.

Question 15

What should participants wear to a Nerf party?

Accepted Answer

Wear comfortable athletic clothing you can move and run in. Closed-toe shoes are required (sneakers work best). We recommend layers since you'll be active and may get warm. Avoid loose jewelry or anything that could get caught. If it's sunny, sunscreen and a hat are smart choices for outdoor events.

Question 16

Can participants bring their own safety glasses?

Accepted Answer

Yes, you're welcome to bring your own safety glasses if you prefer. However, eye protection is mandatory for all participants. Nerfpalooza Burbank provides complimentary safety goggles for everyone at every event to ensure consistent protection standards across all players.

Question 17

Do I need a permit to host a Nerf party at a public park?

Accepted Answer

Permit requirements vary by city under the host's name. Some parks operate on a first-come, first-served basis, while others require reservations or special event permits. We recommend checking with your local Parks and Recreation department early in your planning process. If you need guidance on park requirements in the Burbank or San Fernando Valley area, reach out and we can point you in the right direction.

Question 18

How much space do we need for a Nerf party?

Accepted Answer

For a group of 20 participants, you'll need a minimum space of approximately 80 feet by 40 feet (roughly the size of a tennis court). Larger groups require more space. Nerfpalooza Burbank can set up at parks, backyards, cul-de-sacs, school fields, church parking lots, or any safe outdoor area where participants can run around freely.

Question 19

Can participants bring their own Nerf guns?

Accepted Answer

Yes, participants are welcome to bring their own Nerf guns. We provide premium equipment for everyone, but if someone has a favorite blaster they'd like to use, that's fine. The assigned coach will inspect the blaster and approve its usability. It is recommended that blasters are consistent with the model purchased; i.e. elite, mega, or rivals.
