ValaisFun: laser tag and inflatable park traveling in Valais

An idea that gets families moving in Valais

ValaisFun travels across the canton with two great classics that appeal to children: a laser tag without projectiles and an inflatable structure park. The team sets up in different municipalities (Sion, Sierre, Martigny, Monthey, and sometimes the villages) depending on the dates, during events, themed weekends, or private bookings. It’s friendly, sporty, and very accessible for families.

What to expect on site

Laser tag is played in teams, with sensors and infrared guns. No balls or paint, so no marks or pain. Obstacles and corridors define the playing field; children love to hide, devise strategies, and run to “capture” points. Mission atmosphere, but always in good spirits.

Next to it, the inflatable park offers castles, slides, and balance courses. The little ones climb, jump, and test their motor skills. The older ones challenge themselves on the more athletic courses. The animation is lively, with clear instructions and attentive supervision.

Answers to the questions you may have

• Recommended age: inflatable structures are generally suitable from 3 years old (with an adult nearby). Laser tag is ideal from 7–8 years old, depending on the child's size and confidence. Teens and parents can also play.
• Duration: plan for 1 to 2 hours to fully enjoy, with laser tag rounds of 10 to 15 minutes and unlimited or à la carte access to the inflatables (depending on the event).
• Type of activity: rather sporty and playful. We move, we laugh, we cooperate. On the educational side, we develop coordination, endurance, teamwork, strategy, and confidence.
• Booking and prices: for public days, access is often with a ticket on-site or online (depending on the local organizer). For a birthday, school party, or private event, booking is essential. Prices vary depending on the package, location, and duration.
• Accessibility for strollers and transport: installation sites are generally squares, parks, or community halls. Strollers are okay in circulation areas; not on the structures, obviously. For transport, aim for downtown stops; by car, parking varies by municipality.
• Equipment to bring: sports clothes, closed shoes, water bottle, cap, and sunscreen in summer. For the inflatables, clean socks are often required. In case of cool weather, an extra layer between rounds.
• Safety: anchored structures and marked areas. Briefing before each laser tag game. Rules adapted according to age. The youngest stay on dedicated modules. Parents keep an eye, the animation team ensures the framework.
• Best season: preferably in spring, summer, and autumn, outdoors. In winter, some dates may take place indoors depending on the municipality.

Parents' tips

• Arrive at the beginning of the time slot: there is often less waiting and children enjoy it more.
• Rotate activities: a round of laser tag, a turn on the inflatables, a water break, and off we go again.
• Slip in a spare pair of socks in the bag.
• Set a meeting point and a clear rhythm, especially with siblings.
• In case of high heat, prefer the morning or late afternoon.
