Overview. GoQuest Arena is for adults, teenagers and families with older children. The minimum age in GoQuest Arena is 8 but unless most of the group are 11+ you should choose GoQuest Junior. GoQuest Junior is for families where most children are 12 or under and groups of 9-12 year olds. In short, if you’re a family with mainly over 11s then book Arena and mainly under 12s then book Junior! GoQuest Junior is not for groups of young children (5-8 year olds) even with adults, this is GoQuest so it is still a challenge – for parents too!
Groups – The minimum age for groups in GoQuest Arena is 12 (6th class). The minimum age for birthdays for GoQuest Junior is 9th birthdays (3rd class).
For those under 15, If not playing as a family team, an adult must remain on site at all times.
**please note that those under the ages specified above (including babies in slings etc) are not permitted to enter the challenge zone. Anyone who enters the challenge zone must be a paying and playing participant.

GoQuest Arena needs a minimum of three people to complete all the challenges. So it’s is a better experience for 3 or more people as you’ll be able to attempt all the challenges. So Yes 2 people can play but currently are able to score in 28 of the 29 challenges and MAX in 27 of 29. Unfortunately we are not able to accept Saturday bookings until AFTER 4P.M for 2 people.

The teams are composed of max 5 players. 5+ players, form another team and compete against each other. (up to a max of 20 teams, 100 players!). 11-15 people is three teams, 16 is four teams as never go over 5 in a team.
Please see goquest.ie/teams for an exact breakdown on how many teams your group will play in.

The GoQuest venue is fully accessible in reception and toilets areas and there is a wheelchair lift to the first floor for GoQuest Junior. However the nature of the challenges themselves means that some of these are not suitable either because they are physical or skill challenges or due to the nature of the room setup. However we do get lots of wheelchair users and though they may not be able to take part in all of the challenges they can mostly enter rooms and contribute to the team. All our room doors are Part M compliant for building regulations. If you feel like dropping in to see our setup then please do.

No, we’re quite unique and even if we do say so ourselves but in GoQuest you’re trying to solve a room, not escape it! We’re 29 unique challenges that you roam around in the 1 hr 45 minute experience trying to solve as many as possible. (GoQuest Junior 22 challenges in 1 hr 30 minutes experience). But the main difference in a but

While there is a mix of physical, skill and mental challenges, comfortable clothes are fine – you don’t need to be in tracksuits etc but some prefer this. However footwear is most important – flat shoes/runners are best and due to the nature of some of the challenges we don’t permit high heels.

Some of our challenges will be unavailable to those who are physically restricted but the venues are accessible and there will be a selection of options that may suit. For this reason we suggest that you speak with our team in Carrickmines prior to booking to ensure it’s the right option for your day out.

Unless there are medical reasons for you not taking part we don’t forsee any problems but we would suggest that you choose your teammates well as there are some challenges that might not be quite as comfortable for you.

GoQuest doesn’t offer changing facilities as our guests turn up ready to participate. You will find complimentary lockers for your personal belongings and we have larger lockers for group bookings.

Yes we have some spaces to the front and a large car park to the rear.

Photos are permitted at any point during the challenges but we generally find that in the excitement of the event most people are caught up in scoring as many points as possible and simply hold on to the end for a group photo instead – especially when they can boast about winning!! We do not permit videos or the use of GoPros inside the arena.
In the case of corporate activity groups, photos are taken of your group and sent on by email the following day – this is covered in the details of your corporate package booking.

In GoQuest Junior an adult must always remain on site if 9-13 year olds are playing on their own. In GoQuest Arena if the children playing are 15 or under an adult is required to stay on site. This is for insurance reasons and not something we have flexibility with.

Unfortunately not anymore as they are not standard VISA/Mastercard cards like other gift cards and we had an issue getting the payments (not One4All being slow just the nature of the cards we should say)
