What is a Rage Room?
A rage room, aka an anger room or smash room is an entertainment venue where participants can smash and break things such as glasses, plates, electronics in a controlled and safe manner. The experience is exhilarating and also therapeutic.
We try to include some bigger items such as TVs, laptops and computers but they cannot always be guaranteed.
You can also bring your own items, however some items are restricted.
If you’d like to bring your own smashables, please contact us in advance to check.
What happens on the day?
On arrival you will check in with the team. You will receive a safety briefing and introduction. The team will get you fitted in your safety gear and then lead you to your dedicated rage room. Here you can either choose a type of music/artist to play into the room or we can play a spotify playlist that you curated into the room, choose your weapons of destruction and have at it at the smashables.
Your booking is for 30 minutes of smash time.
What should I Wear?
Be sensible, please wear comfortable closed-toe shoes that cover the whole foot. Heels, sandals and flip flops aren’t allowed.
We will supply all of the protective gear you will need. So please cover your tootsies
What is the Age Policy?
Due to the nature of the business, our insurance requires the youngest participant to be at least 10 years old.
Some weapons are not available to persons under 18.
PLEASE NOTE:
If you are lucky (or unlucky) enough to not look your age, we may ask for ID as proof of age – we suggest those lucky/unlucky people bring a passport.
Can i play my own music?
Each of our Rage Rooms has a speaker that is connected to it’s own dedicated Spotify account. You can either:
- Choose from one of our curated playlists
- Choose an artist you want to hear
- Bring your own playlist (min. 30 minutes and ensure it is public) and we’ll play it into the room
What happens to the smashed items after?
A magical fairy comes in every night, cast’s a little spell and the smashed items are transported to a trusted recycling partner.
Is it safe?
We provide you with all the safety gear you require to minimise the potential for injuries during the activity, however, some common sense is required from you.
Who would of thought jumping out of a plane with a big bed sheet in a backpack would be a good idea?

I'm pregnant, can I take part?
Unfortunately due to the nature of the rage room, i’m afraid we cannot permit pregnant women to take part. This is purely for health & safety reasons as there can be an awful lot of debris flying around!
Why not book a slot for after the baby has arrived?
