Enjoy the fun of GellyBall in our customizable GellyBall Arena!
GellyBall is a revolutionary low-impact shooting game for all ages. GellyBall combines the best parts of laser tag and paintball into 1 game. GellyBall takes the electronic scoring system from laser tag and the thrill of shooting a projectile from paintball to create the sport of GellyBall. Unlike paintball, Gellyball is an ultra-low-impact sport suitable for kids age five to 85. GellyBall shoots water orbeez at 135 feet per second which safely delivers a hit without the pain like paintball.
Our GellyBall arena provides Glow in the dark obstacles and walls to take you into a space-themed world with obstacles and hiding spots. The blacklights give the participants 3D vision to see floating planets and star systems. Energizing music is pumping while gameplay is going. Each game runs for approximately 2 minutes with the scoreboard visible for everyone to see during gameplay. The pace is quick and exciting during play. Laughter is heard throughout the arena as GellyBalls are flying through the air.
Each participant receives a scoring vest, helmet, blaster, and ammo hooper with 750 water orbeez. When a participant shoots a water orbee and hits a target on a vest, it records a hit on the scoreboard. The winning team is the group with the least amount of hits on their vests.
GellyBall is great for corporate team building, business meeting breakout activities, and birthday parties. If coming to our arena is not feasible, we have mobile bunker fields and shooting galleries.

The final inspection step is to make sure the inflatable safety signs are secure and legible and the unit is clean. Every inflatable unit manufactured in the USA is required to have a safety sign on it with instructions and a manufactured date. If you get delivered to your event an inflatable without a safety sign, beware of the safety of the unit. Over the years, we have acquired many small inflatable companies. Some of these companies had units without safety signs and manufacturer information. Almost all were purchased from China manufacturers and were not made for commercial use.
