How Does Flight Club Darts Work?

The Flight Club family offers a one-of-a-kind social experience – the perfect combination of social darts games, delicious food, and irresistible cocktails. 

The venue is located in the heart of the Birmingham city centre. Steve Moore and Paul Barham founded Flight Club in 2012. 

What is Social Darts?

Darts is the bar’s speciality. The team that founded Flight Club has reinvented darts as we know it. They offer fun multiplayer darts games, innovative dartboard technology (invented by Flight Clubs own astrophysicist), and a sleek user interface that’ll elevate your darts experience to another level.

If you’re a guest at Flight Club, you can play any of the following darts games:

  • Demolition: The purpose of this game is to score anywhere on the board to demolish your diamond tower. The twist here is that you need to finish on “0” exactly, or you’ll go bust and have to try again. To win, you have to be the first person to reach “0”.
  • Quack Shot: In this game, the board is divided into sections – the inner circles bring you points, while the outer ones can lose you points. Aim for the bullseye – if you hit it 3 times, you automatically win the game. Whoever gets the most points after 6 rounds is the winner.
  • Shanghai: This game is similar to the traditional “Around the World” darts game, where you need to hit the number you’re given on the screen. With each round, that number increases, and so do your points (if you manage to score.) Whoever gets the most points after 8 rounds wins.
  • Snakes & Ladders: This game is played exactly as the classic Snakes & Ladders game, except that instead of dice, you use darts. To win, you need to land onto the Champions trophy.
  • Killer: In this game, each player is given a number on the board. You have to throw your dart at your assigned number. If you score your number three times, you become a killer and can throw your dart at another player’s number and take their points. 

Flight Club Brunch Social

Flight Club also offers two brunch options:

  • Traditional Brunch Social: This is ideal for small groups of up to 4 people. You’ll be seated at the bar and get to immerse yourself in the unique atmosphere for 2 hours. Each person also gets a bottle of Prosecco (that’s right – 1 whole bottle for each guest), bottomless pizza paddles, and complimentary OJ and water.
  • Brunch with Social Darts: If you’re still up for a fun darts challenge, you can buy a bottomless brunch and social darts ticket. This includes 1 hour of playing social darts with your friends (groups of 4 or more are welcomed) and 1 hour at the bar feasting on delicious pizza and toasting the winner with Prosecco bubbly.

Flight Club Birmingham Event Spaces

If you’re planning a private party, you can rent some of Flight Club’s event spaces. You can even rent out the entire place if you need extra capacity space (up to 350 people.)

For smaller parties and get-togethers, rent out the following Flight Club venue spaces:

  • The Snug: This cosy space offers 3 oches and a cosy vibe – a great option if you want to gather your friends for a game night with some craft beers or cocktail drinks and tasty food. It’s ideal for small groups of 30 to 45 people.
  • The Carousel: If you’re up for an unforgettable darts experience in a vibrant atmosphere with colourful interior design, the Carousel is the perfect place. This fun space can quickly get you in a cheerful holiday mood. It has 3 oches and can host up to 70 people.
  • The Temple Inn: This semi-private space can host up to 100 people. It offers its own bar, 5 oches, and a unique atmosphere – the perfect place for a darts night with friends. 
  • The Upstairs Bar: This Flight Club venue offers extra capacity ideal for big parties of up to 150 people. It has its own bar area, lots of seating booths, and 7 oches.

Things to Know Before You Book

Here’s everything else you need to know before you head to Flight Club:

Can I Bring My Own Darts?

Unfortunately, you cannot bring your own darts set. Flight Club has a special darts vision system so your darts wouldn’t be recognized on the board.

What Time Should I Arrive Before My Booking?

If you’ve booked an oche, it’s best to arrive 15 minutes before your time slot, so you can get accommodated as fast as possible. If you arrive earlier, you can chill at the bar and try some of Flight Club’s delicious cocktails. 

Can I Eat and Play at the Same Time?

You can definitely eat while you play. Flight Club offers some delicious pizza and different sharing platters you can indulge in while having fun.

Is There a Dress Code?

There is no dress code – you can wear your favourite outfit, whether that’s comfy sweatpants or a fancy suit.

Are Children Allowed in Flight Club Birmingham?

Children are allowed in Flight Club before 5 PM, so you can definitely come with your kids to grab a bite in the bar area. However, due to health and safety reasons, darts players need to be at least 18 years old to be allowed in the oches areas.
