Fun paint splatter party, music, black lights, drums and lots of paint splatter on our white t shirts!
Super fun place great for the kids and family would come here anytime and also great for parties birthday parties
It's really expensive and when playing with the pant it runs out so quickly even when we were using little at a time this place Lokey sucks but it's good ish at the same time
Splatter Box is a huge hit with the kids, all ages. The staff keep things moving from one reservation to the next and there is a table for cake. It is strongly recommend to not let the kids have the bottles of paint, or they will get used in 15 minutes.
You have to SHARE the splatter room with another party, which I was not aware of. Our party of kinders had to share the splatter room (which is not very big) with another party of inconsiderate teenagers and adults who kept trying to take our paint, which was $50 for 10 very small bottles. One of our kids got…

You have to SHARE the splatter room with another party, which I was not aware of. Our party of kinders had to share the splatter room (which is not very big) with another party of inconsiderate teenagers and adults who kept trying to take our paint, which was $50 for 10 very small bottles. One of our kids got knocked over by 2 teenagers, and one got sprayed in the eyes with enough paint it went past the SAFETY GLASSES (not goggles) that we were provided. Thankfully kinders are resilient and still managed to have fun. But for the $245 I spent, I would not expect to have to share the room. Would not recommend a party here and definitely won't be going back.
A great place for a small group of friends. You will go through more paint than expected
My daughter loved it! Had fun at a friends party
We booked this venue for my daughters’ birthday party and had a blast! If you read the website and follow the recommended timeline layout, you will have a good time! With little ones, paint does go fast so be ready to buy more paint! For the car ride home, I recommend clean ponchos to protect seats and a spare set of shoes (swap shoes right before you hop in the car). Wash off was easy at home. Very fun memory for us!
