There’s always a lot of activities taking place in the capital! We at Bad Axe Throwing Ottawa have prepared a list of some of our favourite activities to do in Ottawa this time of year, not to mention they are all very ‘Canadian’ themed! Whether you’re looking for something to do with the youngsters, a unique date idea, something with the family or something to do with your buddies, we’ve got you covered!

Learn a new skill and try axe throwing with us at Bad Axe Throwing Ottawa. We’re offering walk ins on Thursday March 1st from 5:00pm – 7:30pm. No need to make a group booking, just drop in! Our professionally trained axe throwing coaches will provide you with a brief orientation, show you how to properly throw the axes and let you perfect your new skill! You won’t break the bank on this activity either as it’s only $20/hour. We’re conveniently located just 5 minutes from downtown, making this a great date night activity before or after dinner!

We also offer private axe throwing events where you can book a group of 8 or more people with guaranteed axe throwing times of 2.5-3 hours. This guarantees a dedicated axe throwing coach with a reserved axe throwing lane for your party! The cost is only $44.25 per person and we encourage you and your guests to bring your favourite snacks and drinks!
