School’s out, and the kids need something bigger than the back garden. At Teamworks Karting, we’re giving Summer Half Term a serious upgrade. Whether you’re planning a day out with friends, wrangling a car full of cousins, or just trying to beat the Bored Chorus before lunchtime, our venues are built specifically for what you need. With sites across the UK – Birmingham City, Birmingham West, East Midlands, Letchworth and York, all revving with adrenaline from the moment you walk in.

Hit the Track

There’s a reason why Karting is right there in the name. Fast electric karts, challenging corners, and real wheel-to-wheel racing on indoor tracks built for proper competition, pure speed, and the kind of rivalry that follows you home in the car.

If you’ve got younger racers in the crew, our Cadet Karts are made for 8-16 year olds, so the whole family can get on the grid together. First-timers, returning rivals and parents who reckon they’ve still got it – there’s room for everybody on our indoor tracks.

And right now you’ll save up to £13 per person on our Karting Hot Deal. 30 minutes of racing for just £38 per person, every weekday until the end of June. Half term sorted in one click.

Tag, You’re It

While the engines cool, our battle arena heats up. Our laser tag arenas are dark, atmospheric and built for teaming up to hunt down your rivals. It’s the perfect way to find out once and for all:  who actually has tactical instincts and who just runs at everything, shouting and blasting?

20% off laser tag until the end of June. Bring the squad.

Screen-Time

Into pro-level racing, but don’t have the stomach for G-force? Our Racing Simulators drop you into the driver’s seat of legendary tracks around the world. Pick your car, pick your circuit, and go head-to-head with your group on full-motion rigs that feel ridiculously real. 

Brilliant for older kids, motorsport-obsessed teens, and dads who definitely could’ve gone pro.

20% off racing simulators until the end of June.

Pit Stop

All that excitement is guaranteed to build up a healthy appetite – and we’ve got you covered on that front.

Fresh pizza prepared on-site is the perfect refuel between sessions. Debrief over slices, and let the kids replay every overtake while the adults grab a well-earned sit-down. It’s a full day out, not a quick stop, so keeping your engines running is just as important to us as getting you across that finish line.

That’s the magic of Teamworks. Karting, laser tag, sim racing and food all under one roof. No driving between activities. No timing nightmares. No “what next?” moments. One booking, one venue, one brilliant day out. The grid is filling fast – claim your spot before the kids do.

At Teamworks Karting, we know what it feels like to put someone in the driving seat and watch them go. The idea that the right environment unlocks real potential is exactly what Teamworks Hub is built on.

Teamworks Hub is our employability and social impact initiative, powered by Teamworks Karting. It’s where the energy of the race track meets real opportunity for young people who need it most.

Q: So, what exactly is Teamworks Hub?

Teamworks Hub designs and delivers employability and enrichment programmes for young people aged 19-29 who aren’t currently in employment, education or training. We work in partnership with employers and local authorities across the West Midlands to create clear, credible pathways into the world of work.

This isn’t a box-ticking exercise. It’s a structured, hands-on programme that gives participants real skills, real confidence, and a real shot at sustainable employment.

Q: What do participants get out of it?

A lot! Each cohort works through a six-session programme covering CV writing, interview techniques, professional communication, financial literacy, mental health awareness, and goal setting. Participants also get access to Springpod, a virtual work experience platform with over 100 career sectors to explore, and benefit from employer panels, one-to-one support, and covered travel costs.

Oh, and there’s karting. Because if you’re going to build confidence and teamwork, you may as well do it on track.

Q: How does it wrap up?

The programme culminates in Talent Finders Day, a dedicated recruitment event held at Teamworks Birmingham City in Digbeth. Participants walk in prepared, CV in hand, and meet 20+ employers with live entry-level roles ready to fill. 

Q: What’s in it for businesses?

Direct access to motivated, work-ready candidates, without the usual recruitment noise. Every person who walks through the door on Talent Finders Day has completed structured employability training. They’re prepared, confident, and ready to add value from day one.

Previous Talent Finders Days have attracted employers from retail, healthcare, technology, social care, security, and more. Companies like Barclays, Pertemps and Care UK have already been part of it.

Q: Is there a cost to exhibit?

No. Attendance is free for job seekers. Exhibiting is free for employers. Teamworks Hub exists to create impact, not to charge for access. Bring your team, bring your live roles, and bring the opportunity.

Q: Why Teamworks Hub?

Because the race track has always been about more than fast laps. It’s about building something together: crews, teams, shared moments under pressure. Teamworks Hub takes that same ethos and applies it to something that matters beyond race night.

We believe a business like ours has a responsibility to the communities around it. And we believe that the young people coming through Teamworks Hub have everything they need to go the distance. They just need the right starting grid.

If you’ve never played laser tag before, you might be wondering what happens behind the doors of the arena. What happens when the lights go down and the laser blasters charge up? Is it chaos? Does everyone else know what they’re doing? Will you know what to do?

The good news is that your first laser tag match will be exciting from the very first second. You won’t need any experience, special skills, or a tactical plan. You just need to show up ready to move, and get stuck in. Here is what you can expect:

Before the Game Starts

First, your group will be welcomed by the Teamworks crew and taken through a quick safety and game briefing. This is where you’ll learn the rules, how the equipment works, and what the mission is.

You’ll be shown how to wear your battle pack, how to hold the laser blaster, and how scoring works. If you are worried about not understanding the tech, don’t be. It’s designed to be simple, and it’ll all be explained clearly before you begin, with time for you to ask any questions you might have.

Entering the Arena

Now the briefing’s over, this is the part when the fun really begins. 

Once the doors open, you’ll step into our state-of-the-art battle area, filled with glowing lights, dark corners, platforms, and hidden sniper holes. We’ve built the arena to feel immersive, with plenty of places to duck behind when things get intense.

At first, you might move cautiously. Most first-time players do. Within thirty seconds, that usually changes. Once the game begins, instincts take over.

The Match Itself

Your objective will depend on the game mode, but most of the time you’ll be scoring points by tagging opponents, or defending your base.

You’ll quickly learn that laser tag isn’t just about running around firing wildly. The best players use movement and teamwork.

You might find yourself:

• Sneaking around the side of the arena to surprise the other team
• Defending a key area while your teammates push forward
• Hiding for a second to regroup before making a comeback

Every match is fast-paced, but it’s rarely complicated. You’re never expected to be perfect. Half the fun is figuring it out as you go.

What It Feels Like

Expect a mix of friendly competition and laughter. That’s the magic of laser tag, it’s the balance of action and fun. Moments where you feel like a tactical genius, and moments where you get tagged immediately. Whether you’re ultra-competitive or just there for the experience, you’ll have fun.

So if you are thinking about giving it a go, stop wondering what happens in the arena and come find out for yourself at Teamworks Karting. Book now and pick up your laser blaster!

September can be a bit of a downer. Suddenly the carefree chaos of summer is swapped for timetables and homework. But here’s the good news: back-to-school doesn’t have to mean back-to-boring. A weekend at Teamworks Karting – in particular, one with laser guns and battle armour – is the ultimate way to blast away those blues and kickstart the school year with a bang. 

Or, you know, a pew pew pew.

Set the Tone

Back-to-school parties are quickly becoming the secret weapon for parents who want to make September feel special. Think of it as a “last hurrah” for summer – a way to turn the post-holiday slump into something your child will be buzzing about all term. 

The first weeks of school set the mood for the whole year. Give your child the confidence boost of an unforgettable hangout with friends, and watch them walk into the classroom with their chin resolutely up.

Fire Up the Fun

Back to school means new classmates, new social groups, and new anxieties. Laser tag wipes all of that away in minutes. From the moment the vests go on, the neon lights go up, the music starts, and the arena opens up into ramps, sniper holes and hidden corners, kids who’ve been nervous about starting a new year and making new friends suddenly become fearless team leaders, sneaky snipers, or heroic defenders. Our lasertag arena levels the playing field instantly: no experience needed, no special skills required: just point and zap!

Nothing builds a bond faster than ducking behind cover together or shouting out strategies mid-battle. Before long, the squad will be high-fiving and laughing over dramatic dodges. It’s the perfect way to turn ‘I don’t know anyone’ into ‘this is my team’.

And why stop at laser tag? Across the UK, Teamworks venues offer so much more. Take the excitement to the track with high-octane indoor go karting, and feel the adrenaline as you race wheel-to-wheel on professionally designed circuits, perfect for competitive spirits who want bragging rights. 

Or if your speed demons are obsessed with gaming, our state-of-the-art racing simulators let them step into the driver’s seat of a virtual race car – complete with force-feedback steering wheels, pedals, and huge screens. It’s the closest you’ll get to the real thing without a Formula One contract.

Here for Parents

Let’s be real: hosting can be a hassle. Activities that fizzle out after five minutes, food and drinks (with a booklet of dietary requirements), and a mess that somehow takes days to clean up. At Teamworks, all of that stress vanishes. Our arenas are built to thrill, our games keep the energy up, and our party packages mean you don’t have to lift a finger. Add food and drink from our on-site kitchen to the mix, and suddenly you’ve got a fun day out that’s as easy for parents as it is exciting for kids.

So, forget the back-to-school blues – let’s light them up with lasers. 🏎️🏁

BOOK NOW

You want to find something perfect. Something they’ll actually love. A pair of socks? A body spray set? A candle. They’ll love a candle, right? Maybe if you put it in a mug. Time to break the cycle this year, and give them something that’ll actually raise their heart rate. 

At Teamworks Karting, we’re in the business of creating memories – not clutter that’ll only gather dust. Our gift vouchers put the power of choice in your loved one’s hands, letting them decide between the thrill of go-karting, an epic Laser Tag showdown, or the high-tech fun of our simulator room. Whether you’re shopping for dad, kids, or even that tricky colleague for the office Secret Santa, we’ve got something for everyone. Ditch the hot chocolate kit, and give them what they really want this Christmas.

For Dad
Picture this: it’s Christmas morning, and your dad’s just opened up a tool kit. He musters a smile, because he’s a good Dad, and it’s nobody’s fault that Dads are impossible to buy gifts for. This year, let’s give his overflowing bits and bobs drawer a break, and hand him a Teamworks Karting voucher instead.

With our Karting 30 experience, he can spend 30 glorious minutes tearing up the track and proving he’s still got it. Give him a chance to channel his inner speed demon and relive his racing dreams – call him Lewis Hamilton, he’ll love it. And if he’s the type who gets all teary eyed watching home videos, throw in a Helmet Camera Voucher so he can capture his laps and replay his glory for everyone to see. You don’t get that out of Whiskey Stones. 

For the Kids
You don’t want to be the relative who gives them another board game they’ll play once, or a toy that’s broken by New Year’s Eve. This year, be the cool aunt or uncle who gifts a Teamworks experience instead.

Our Laser Tag Voucher covers three action-packed games in our state-of-the-art Laser Tag arena. Lights, smoke, heart-pounding music, and the closest thing to real life Fortnite you can find. 

Come on. Kids don’t really want iPads. They want battle armour and a gun that shoots lasers.

For your Boss
We’ve all been there — stuck in the office Secret Santa with a £25 limit and no clue what to buy. Candles? Too generic. A novelty mug? Yuck. This year, you’re going to shake things up.

For just £25, give your colleague a taste of the action and let them choose how they want to spend it. Maybe they’ll opt for simulator racing, zooming around iconic tracks without ever leaving the city. Or perhaps they’ll go head-to-head with friends in a high-stakes game of Laser Tag.

Either way, they’ll remember it more than a bottle of wine.

Teamworks Gift Vouchers are more than a piece of paper – they’re an invitation to adventure. It’s the perfect antidote to the predictable and the ultimate way to make your Christmas shopping easy and memorable. So, if you’re tired of giving (and receiving) gifts that go straight to the back of the cupboard, it’s time to switch gears. Because all they really want for Christmas is an experience they’ll never forget—and we’ve got you covered.
