Billings axe throwing venue sets sanctioned charity tournament for July 26

Öx Indoor Axe Throwing will host a sanctioned charity tournament July 26 at 119 Rhea Lane in Billings, putting a competitive axe-throwing night and a fundraiser in the same bracket. A World Axe Throwing League group post flagged the event for Billings throwers looking for a local sanctioned stop with a community payoff.

Registration is being handled through Öx’s schedule page, and the venue lists its contact number as (406) 702-1299. Its homepage brands the business as “A Haven for Heathens,” a fitting slogan for a place that sells itself as both a social outing and a competition space. The venue also offers online booking, making it easy for newcomers as well as regulars to lock in a spot before the July 26 date.

The sanctioned label gives the tournament real weight. In axe throwing, that means the night is more than an informal house matchup, with results carrying the credibility that organized competitors look for. World Axe Throwing League’s venue listings place Öx among its leaderboard locations, which keeps Billings connected to the wider competitive circuit rather than a one-off novelty event.

That matters in a market like Billings, where a tournament can pull in both serious throwers and casual participants who want to support a cause while still getting a proper bracket. The charity angle widens the event’s reach beyond regular league players, and the venue’s setup makes it accessible to people who may never enter a major championship but still want to take part in a sanctioned night.

Öx already has a track record in the city. KTVQ previously reported that the business hosted its first-ever league tournament in Billings, and another listing for July 19, 2026 at the same 119 Rhea Lane address points to a late-July stretch packed with competitive events. That kind of calendar suggests the venue is becoming a steady home for local throwers who want organized matches without leaving town.

For Billings, the July 26 charity tournament offers a simple invitation: compete, donate, or show up to support the throwers making the lane count. The sanctioned status raises the stakes, but the fundraiser keeps the event rooted in the local crowd that fills these nights in the first place.
