DEADZONE  "WASTELAND" LARP Clan Battle

Several years have now passed since the shadowy E2S Corporation released the deadly toxin which quickly and violently contaminated the planet, leaving a trail of death and destruction in it's wake.

​

With the population all but decimated, wealth and status now obsolete, the only commodities that are worth any value are the sparse resources that can be scavenged from within the desolate wasteland. 

You are not the only survivor with a hunger though, there are jealous eyes watching, praying that you'll make a fatal mistake that will cost you your life or even that of your entire clan.

You will choose your character, SURVIVOR or WHISPERER in this epic Walking Dead inspired Live Action Roleplay battle !

You'll have to use cunning, teamwork and the LARP weapons provided in order to defeat the enemy and battle for the resources, all whilst trying to fend off the flesh hungry undead that are wandering the wasteland trying to take your lives, beware…..if you lose all of your lives you die and turn.

Included in your ticket price you will already have received a safe battle-ready SURVIVOR Weapon and Shield for training on Friday. WHISPERERS will be issued appropriate weapon for the Wasteland LARP.

​

However, if you prefer you may build/bring your own LARP weapon* and shield and use it as long as they adhere to the event criteria and specifications.

*Subject to inspection at the 10am game briefing for safety and suitability to use in the battles.
