Ridgeway Graffiti School!
Spray, stencil, and sketch your way into street art!
Join us every Monday from 7pm–9pm for an immersive evening of graffiti art at the Ridgeway Graffiti School, just 30 mins from Oxford and Reading! (OX11 9DP) Whether you're a beginner, looking to sharpen your skills, or just want somewhere to practice, this is the place to go for graffiti art in Oxfordshire and Berkshire.
We’re proud to be partnering with the incredible Łukasz Sidor — a professional artist, tattooist, and art teacher whose work blends bold technique with deep creative insight. Under his guidance, you’ll learn the foundations of street art: from can control and layering to sketchbook work, stencilling, and large-scale collaborative pieces.
Sessions must be booked in advance via BookingHound.
Each session is two hours long, suitable for ages 12 and up (under 18s must be accompanied by a guardian who signs the risk form).
All materials are provided — just bring your creativity.
The Ridgeway Graffiti School is hosted at Carrimers Farm, OX11 9DP. Our studio space is fully wheelchair accessible.

"I cannot recommend axe throwing with Ridgeway highly enough. Whether you’re looking for a cute date idea or a fun new sport, it was a fun active afternoon in nature picking up a badass new hobby... If you ever want to feel like a Celtic hero, try catapulting two axes at once"

Reviews from previous visitors
★★★★★ “Fantastic experience axe throwing! Harry was a great instructor with his fun and informative approach and had even the least coordinated of us *cough* hitting the target by the end of the session. Will definitely be going again at some point - strongly recommend giving this a go.” - Hannah
★★★★★ Excellent experience! Full instruction given, and by the end you’ll feel like you are out of Robin Hood or the Patriot nailing those perfect bullseyes with grace and cocky flair (but in a safe and considerate gentlemanly/ ladylike fashion). Throwing axes and then a few pints after is the perfect evening. Book it! - Oliver
★★★★★ Our axe throwing experience was excellent. Harry’s simple and effective advice helped us to find our Zen with a range of activities and throws. We even managed to hit the target on a regular basis. Nice to have an instructor who is so enthusiastic that he participates actively with you to help you to progress. The location is great too. Tucked away in a private woodland that helps to transport you away from humdrum! - Stephen
★★★★★ Absolutely amazing axe throwing session with Harry last weekend. Cannot fault his clear communication, safety briefing, caching style, or sense of fun - and he got us all hitting the target, what more could you ask for? Would highly recommend this and will definitely be back. Thank you Harry! - Alice
★★★★★ Great experience, as a axe throwing noobie, great training and covid safe experience - Richard
★★★★★ What a fantastic experience this was! I’m honestly so thrilled to have had the space, a wonderful instructor like Harry and the axes to throw for an afternoon, only to find out just how much of a natural I was with no previous experience. Perhaps all the movie watching has built up my inner warrior that I had waited to finally unleash. We had such a great time, great laugh. Harry was so much fun to be around and so good with keeping an eye on you to help you improve within a short space of time. I wish we had booked a longer session, we will definitely be coming back! I can’t believe I did a double axe throw on first try! I felt so empowered and capable, the one thing I actually just naturally ‘understood’ I was very proud. I highly highly recommend checking this out, you’ll have great fun unleashing your inner Viking! It’s perfectly safe, perfectly instructed and really fun. Don’t miss out. We will be coming back. - Paulina
★★★★★ Super fun afternoon activity for our mixed family group aged 23-53. Harry gave very clear instructions and was brilliant at correcting little flaws in our different techniques. He was very encouraging and taught us several different throw styles which made the activity more varied and fun. Definitely recommend as a fun and quirky afternoon activity. The site is very basic, but the rustic feel really enhances the experience - it's lovely to throw access into wooden targets between rows of trees, really gives everything that authentic "Viking" feeling! - Liz
★★★★★ Went with a bunch of nine, great fun and just down the road from Wallingford. Beautiful setting! Plenty of time to practise throwing axes with some fun competitions and trick shots thrown in the mix. - Annaliese
★★★★★ We have just spent a glorious evening throwing axes with Ridgeway View Events. All felt very safe and was such good fun. Households separated by lanes and sanitised axes. Harry explained everything brilliantly and before we knew it we were hitting the target (some more than others ). Would highly recommend. - Danielle
★★★★★ I cannot recommend axe throwing with Ridgeway View highly enough. Whether you’re looking for a cute date idea or a fun new sport, it was a fun active afternoon in nature picking up a badass new hobby - Kitty

★★★★★ Had an absolutely brilliant time here today! First time axe throwers but definitely will do again. Harry our instructor was a legend and made the experience so much more memorable.

★★★★★ We did a group axe-throwing activity led by Harry. It was great fun and very well organised/instructed. Highly recommended. - Dean
★★★★★ I took a gang of friends to Ridgeway to throw axes, for a different night out, last Friday. It was a riot but in a really good and safe way! Harry is a true entertainer and kept all of us fully enthused for a couple of hours. We all skipped off with a spring in our step and vowed to return with others who need to have a go. - Alasdair
★★★★★ We had a great time, Harry was a great mentor and we picked it up quite quickly and got to try some fun tricks. Would definitely recommend if you're looking to try something different! - Lara
★★★★★ We just had the best time learning how to axe throw under the expert guidance of Harry who showed us the ropes , explained all the safety measures , axe and covid !! It was great fun with a bit of healthy competition thrown in :)) great location . We would highly recommend a visit and we will back for sure !! - Sinead
★★★★★ Your palms are sweaty. The Viking warrior roars. He's charging, running, he wants to kill you. His shield is broad and his sword is shining. Your axes are heavy in your hands. You swing the first back, waiting for the moment. Fifteen metres. Harry roars at you: "Throw!" It's a bad axe throw, you know that as soon as it leaves your hand. The haft hits the raging warrior in his helmet and he pays no heed. 10 metres. Your last axe, your only remaining weapon. "Throw!"
It's a good throw. The axe sinks into the Danish soldier, and he crumples to the ground. Lucky for you that you'd attended a Ridgeway Axe Throwing session, wasn't it? - Carl
★★★★★ Had a fantastic afternoon of axe throwing with my family of 5 under Harry's expert tuition. This was the first time any of us had thrown an axe and Harry's instructions and demonstrations were brilliant and helped every one of us hit the targets by the end of the session. The setting is perfect for the activity, set in a small private wood on the operators farmland. Harry struck the right tone; professional yet relaxed which made it fun for everyone. I highly recommend this activity as something a bit different that would appeal to the whole family. - James
