Not too many venues offer a teen birthday party package, but Andretti’s shifts gear to drive up the fun for those 13 years old to young adult. Priced at $54.95 per person, the Octane Package includes one race, laser tag, one-hour of game play, plus a specialty attraction such as virtual reality, race simulators, or bowling. Partygoers can then fill their tanks with pizza and party treats.
Also, try Planet Obstacle.
Epic Axe Throwing

A little friendly competition really hits the mark among teens. Smaller groups (4-5 people) can book a one-hour reservation at Epic Axe Throwing for $30 per person. Larger groups (6-30) can aim for the bullseye during a two-hour session, for $49.50 per person. An onsite coach will help each partygoer practice and master the art of axe throwing.
Also try disc golf at Bill Frederick Park.
Lake Nona Adventure Park
14086 Centerline Dr., Orlando | (407) 313-2907
For tweens with spring or summer birthdays, Lake Nona Adventure Park is the coolest outdoor party venue in town.

Priced at $800, Wake Nona Park balances fast-paced fun, with the silliness of the Adventure Park.
Orlando Paintball
These days, teenagers rarely play with water guns and nerf guns, but many are eager to suit up for a paintball battle. Orlando Paintball provides downloadable invitations and offers a package inclusive of rental gear for $20 per person. A discount of 5% may be applied for groups of 5 or more, and a discount of 10% may applied for groups of 10 or more. Plus, Orlando Paintball offers pizza options too.

Orlando Tree Trek Adventure Park
7625 Sinclair Rd., Kissimmee | (407) 390-9999
Perhaps your teen is no longer climbing trees, but he/she/they could love swinging between them. Orlando Tree Trek Adventure Park takes birthday party excitement up a notch with 425 feet of zip lines and nearly 100 aerial obstacles. Tarzan-like teens can try balancing on hanging skateboards, climbing on swinging rope ladders and crossing wobbly bridges. Tickets are typically $59.95 per person for daytime fun (with discounted group rates available), or $48.95 for nighttime exploration.
PopStroke
To stay on par with your teen’s expectations, book a round (or two) at PopStroke, a fairly new outdoor golf venue owned by Tiger Woods. Holed up in Waterford Lakes, PopStroke features two 18-hole putting courses and other sporty activities. Food, drink and ice cream packages are customizable. Party packages require a minimum of 10 guests.
Also try Drive Shack and TopGolf.
Wave of Wellness
Various locations | (850) 445-8348
We’re sure that your teen will be on board with a SUParty (that’s stand-up paddleboard party). While it’s not a typical party venue per se, Wave of Wellness can provide all the gear you need to for an awesome party on a local body of water. SUParty packages includes 10 boards for two instructor-led hours (starting price of $399).
Beginners may prefer the Was’SUP? package to learn the FUNdamentals of this leisure sport. However, experienced (or enthusiasts) paddlers should drive into the SUP X-Games package. It’s an epic experience full of tandem challenges, tug-of-war, relays and team-building shenanigans. So fun!
Rage Room
4065 L. B. McLeod Rd., Ste G, Orlando | (407) 712-6394
Rage rooms are all the rage among teenagers. Never heard of the concept? Well, it’s all about letting teenagers let out their teenage angst by smashing glass, appliances, and more. For $195.55, up to six teens can de-stress by breaking electronics and other stuff provided by the facility (or bring up to two boxes of your own breakables).
Ideas for Those That Need More Options
Comic Controllers
628 8th St., Clermont | (407) 476-1323

With these statistics top of mind, we bet that your teen would love a gaming party at Comic Controllers.
Ideal for about 25 people, their Power-Up Lounge can be rented out for private parties, for around $100 per hour. The large screen is equipped with XBOX Game Pass with hundreds of games, plus Nintendo Switch with Mario Kart and Super Smash Bros.
