30^th Birthday Activities

30 is a huge milestone that needs to be celebrated properly with friends and family. Here are our favourite 30th Birthday activities.

Silent Disco

This is a type of an event which has become increasingly more popular in the last few years. This is an event when you’re in a room with lots of people. Everyone is wearing wireless earphones which are tuned into the laptop. The same music is then played on all of the devices at the same time. This is to replace the traditional disco with the large speakers playing music. This is popular with 30^th birthday party’s as people will have their friends and family all in the one room together.

Escape Room

This is when the members of a group are all locked in a room and they have to solve lots of different types of puzzles. These include clues to get items which can assist them to try to escape from the room. This event is for the person who is turning 30 and enjoys different types of challenge’s. This is very popular for team building as well.

Paintballing

If you are looking for a fun and enjoyable party for the whole family, paint balling is where you should go. Take time out of your normal everyday life to try something you don’t experience on a daily basis. When you go paint balling you get camo clothes. You are allowed to shoot and take a base and you are given a certain amount of paint bullets. You have an option to take the shelter and being able to sneak up on people and take fire on them. This is a very enjoyable experience for everyone.

Outdoor adventure centre
