# Family-Friendly Laser Tag Activities Laser City Specializes in Kid-Friendly Competitive Gaming By Jana Pijak | Published 2016-02-16 | Life-Stages Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/laser-city References: [lasercity](http://www.lasercity.ca/hero-tag) & [instagram](https://www.instagram.com/lasercityyeg/) Edmonton's Laser City is a laser tag facility that targets families with young kids. While classic laser tag can often exclude children due to safety reasons, Laser City offers a competitive and kid-friendly experience for young participants. This means that parents can choose gaming events that don't feature weapon-inspired props. Whether competing against friends, siblings or their parents, kids will enjoy [family-friendly courses](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/dat-game-family-edition) in a [glow-in-the-dark](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/loop-lasso) and sci-fi-themed facility. Furthermore, participants will be able to book private Hero Tag rooms in which they will get to channel some of their favorite superheroes. Equipped with full-on costumes and laser gloves -- an alternative to laser tag accessories that resemble traditional weapons -- Hero Tag participants will be treated to an unforgettable experience.
