Do you remember playing with Nerf Guns? You can bring back all the nostalgia of the projectile toy at Vancouver Blaster Brawls.
Founded by Vancouver’s own Cameron and Gavin Sturrock in May 2021, their events attract close to 50 people per game, rain or shine.
“We started doing these events because we were tired of little Nerf wars in our backyard and wanted a bigger Nerf battle with more people,” they told Daily Hive.
“At the time, no one was doing big organized Nerf wars in Vancouver so we stepped in and made these Big Nerf wars happen.”
“We also wanted to take nerf wars from just shooting your friends to a more intense tactical game with exciting objectives and cool game modes,” they said.
It’s a fast-paced, heart-pumping adventure with organized gameplay that requires strategy and collaboration to succeed.

They have a half-dozen different game modes they designed, so it’s a bit like you’re in a real-life video game. It’s also a bit like paintball, except it’s more affordable but less messy.
Expect to get a workout in while you coordinate with team members to take out the other side and emerge victorious.
Right now, their weekly all-ages Vancouver Brawl happens on Sunday afternoons at Trout Lake. It costs $20 to join and $5 to rent a Nerf gun, but you can bring your own, too.
