In early 2019, our Directors (and English expats) Ian Williams and Jason Macdonald were downing beers in Sydney’s eastern suburbs when they discovered their joint passion for action packed sports. It was here they put their heads together and created Kiss My Axe, the first Sydney venue of its kind – a combined urban indoor axe throwing centre and fully equipped corporate venue under the one roof.
Kiss My Axe was birthed with the desire to create a space that brought people from all demographics and walks of life together for a bloody good time and the boys combined experience in hospitality and logistics meant they were the perfect candidates to bring this offering to the marketplace.
Axe Throwing has long been a popular sport in Canada and the US and Ian and Jason believed it was high time Australia got in on the axe-tion. From league and couples’ nights, to corporate and team building events, birthdays, hens and bucks parties, Kiss My Axe is equipped to host it all. We’re here to give you the thrilling and memorable experiences you’ve craved for so long.
Not only that, we offer a range of other entertainment from Corn hole & Giant Jenga to ‘The Game’, a Triathlon Olympic Tournament and event food catering. No matter what the event, Kiss My Axe will hit the target.
Urban axe throwing is a fun sport where you’ll get the opportunity to throw solid steel axes at wooden targets in an axe-tion packed 2-hour session:
When it comes to hospitality, it doesn’t get much better than Jason Macdonald. His vast experience serving people across Australia, England and the US has taught him the essential skills to provide world class service that goes beyond his customer’s axe-pectations.
Jason lives and breathes hospitality. His ambition, hard-work and killer attitude has landed him roles in some of the biggest hospitality launches worldwide, not to mention the awards he has personally won for his outstanding hospitality service.
Jason is passionate about creating fun spaces, not only for his customers but for his staff too. He desires to create memorable guest experiences through venues that offer outstanding hospitality from the moment you walk through the door, until the moment you leave. He has one mission for anyone that comes to Kiss My Axe and that is that they must leave happier than when they arrived.
Jason’s personality and attitude are infectious, if you can’t see him, you can feel his presence. When he’s not welcoming guests on arrival, you’ll often find him punting and giving pointers to the underdog from the sidelines.
Founder and Resident Leadership Trainer Ian Williams is no axe-ccident to Kiss My Axe.
A leader in his own right, Ian has spent the last 20 years honing his skills across a variety of senior leadership roles, predominantly in the logistics industry to bring you the ‘Don’t Get Axed’ Corporate Leadership Training.
Ian has managed teams in their thousands across Australia and the UK, pioneered major business transformations that have delivered multi-million dollar improvements to the corporations he has helped lead.
These experiences have taught Ian to weaponize a systematic approach to creating great culture and consequential high performing teams. He believes a key component of this rests in the reward and recognition of staff, valuing and motivating them towards the greater cause and he teaches this as part of his corporate leadership training at Kiss My Axe.
Ian is also an avid sportsman himself, wait till you see him behind the blade.

Just did date night at Kiss My Axe it was so much fun!! Such a great birthday present and well worth the money! I would particularly recommend going in bigger groups and doing a tournament style activity! It would also be so great for a bucks activity.
All the team were really friendly and funny. Will, who lead our group, is an absolute legend! He really made us feel welcome and was hilarious throughout the night! He brought a bunch of couples who were strangers that were pretty quiet at the start to cheering each other by the end of the night. Great bloke with a lot of energy, he definitely made the night extra fun!
TLDR:
10/10 recommend this place even if it's a bit of a trek to get there!
Jono Yan

Excellent experience from beginning to end. Fairly last minute booking for a big group. They were so helpful on the phone and on the night. Everyone had a brilliant time, food arrived on time and was just what we asked for, I feel like there are some axe throwing converts now. Hats off to the team, great work. Thank you!

We went to Kiss My Axe for the couple night and had an amazing time. The atmosphere was really fun and the staff were really engaging. It was one of the best dates we have had. I highly recommend for fun activity to do with friends or with your partner. Lots of laughs to be had! Shout out to Will and Claudio who were great instructors.

For a Christmas present we were given a booking for Kiss My Axe on their Couples night and what a great gift it turned out to be!
The staff are friendly and polite, Will our instructor/games Master of Ceremony could not have been better at making everyone feel at ease and taking us through the art of throwing an axe.
It was a great evening and excellent value for money considering you’re there for 2 hours. Highly recommend to everyone and anyone!

Had a sensational time at Viking Boot Camp! Great safety protocol, guidance in throwing technique, fun games and ways to make it competitive and fun. Our Axe master was Jason, he had great energy and made the afternoon more fantastic. A great out of the ordinary activity, the girl I brought along was quite petite but she absolutely smashed it so its suitable for everyone. Thanks everyone, what a fun experience thwomping axes and letting loose. Looking forward to the next time!
