The best adrenaline activity in Cambridgeshire is set to host a Platinum Jubilee tournament.
The team behind Rumble Live at Grafham Water will host an action-packed sleepover at their Big Family Camp Out on Thursday June 2.
With campfire food and a 100-player laser tag tournament, Jacquie Rumble said the Queen's Platinum Jubilee weekend is the perfect occasion to host something "a little different".
Jacquie, who owns Rumble Live with her husband, Billy, said: "We’re incredibly excited to be hosting our first camping event.
"For some time we’ve considered the setting to be perfect for camping and, with the long bank holiday weekend in June, we thought we’d do something a little different which we’re sure will attract new players as well as delighting our regulars.
"It will be a fun occasion for all the family, not just the ones who join in the Rumble Live sessions."
Rumble Live was named Cambridgeshire's Best Adrenaline Activity in the EastLife magazine awards 2022.
The Big Family Camp Out begins at 4pm on the Thursday, and the £50-per-head pass includes a spot to pitch up in the woods, three 60-minute woodland laser tag sessions, evening campfire food including hot dogs and toasted marshmallows, and bacon rolls for breakfast - with vegetarian options available.
Entry is £20 for campers who do not want to take part in the laser tag tournament.
Campers must supply their own tents.
