PLAY: The Thrill of Axe Throwing
Axe throwing at Maniax is an exhilarating activity that has taken Melbourne by storm. Inspired by a trip to Canada, where axe throwing is immensely popular, the founder brought the sport back to Australia, opening the first Maniax venue in 2015. Since then, Maniax has grown to become a favourite spot for thrill-seekers across the country. “There is nothing like the feeling of sticking your first bullseye,” says Hocking. At Maniax, everyone from beginners to seasoned throwers can enjoy the fun under the guidance of expert coaches. The venue is designed to be inclusive and welcoming, ensuring a safe and exciting experience for participants aged 11 and up. Whether it’s a team-building event, a birthday party, or a date night, Maniax promises an adventure like no other.
Hocking emphasises, “First-time visitors always leave with a big smile on their face. Making sure guests have an awesome time and stick a few axes is the most important for us.”
