We love a good game of paintball! This sport is a perfect blend of strategy, fitness, and fun. There are a few outdoor paintball locations outside of the city but there’s no need to drive that far as Paintball City is right here in Etobicoke.
Paintball City is located at 35 Stoffel Drive and can be seen as you drive along the 401 just West of Martin Grove Road. What’s great about Paintball City is it’s one of a few indoor paintball locations in the city. That means you can play year round whether it is raining, snowing, super hot or very cold. The facility is built-in urban combat style with 2 storey action with plenty of hiding spots on the field of play. In a place like this you want to make sure that it’s bright and clean and Paintball City is certainly that.
If you’re new to paintball or have never played it’s quite simple. It involves a paintball marker or “paintball gun” that shoots out soft round paintball pellets that mark a player when they are tagged. When you pick up a paintball marker and shoot it for the first time you’ll probably think to yourself “I don’t want to get in the way of that!” and you don’t because when you are hit you’re considered out for the duration of that particular game. Normally getting marked with a paintball pellet won’t hurt but you can get the odd bruise here and there. Like any sport you’ll want to make sure you stretch and are prepared for play by wearing the right equipment (which is included with rental).
Whether you are a drop-in, organizing a corporate event or birthday party, or looking to get more serious with the sport, check out Paintball City in Etobicoke. The adrenaline rush you get from participating in a game of paintball will certainly get your heart pumping!

I just got back from playing at paintball city and im vary disappointed in the management because of how they handle people playing unfairly(not starting to home, over shooting, blind firing, and not calling when they get hit and continue to play) and the lack of briefing new people . The last game i played i was in a narrow hallway and got blind fired on from 5 feet away and i had to grab his gun to stop him from hurting me even tho i was yelling “HIT”.Im pretty hurt i got 10 deep bleeding hits. (pictures below) Afterwords as i was packing me stuff i see the same person go on the field without even being talked to. And dont try to blame this on the reffs this is managements fault 100%. I hope this will help people not get hurt in the future.
