Laser game in Machelen, 10 minutes from Brussels: discover Laser Magic's 2 themed arenas, walk-in prices, and everything there is to do on site between games.

Laser Magic, in Machelen (10 minutes from Brussels Airport and the ring road), is the largest laser game venue in Belgium. Two themed arenas — Jungle and Prison — each offer a different style of play, with games from €11 and no minimum number of participants.
The venue also combines outdoor mini-golf, arcade and virtual bowling, for a complete outing in one place. This article covers prices, how to choose between the two arenas, the difference between laser game and laser tag, and the packages available for a birthday, team building or school outing.
Looking for a laser game near Brussels quickly raises the same question: where can you find one worth the trip? In Machelen, ten minutes from Brussels Airport and the ring road, Laser Magic brings together two themed arenas, an outdoor mini-golf course and an arcade area on a single site.
Laser Magic offers two laser game arenas, each with its own set design and its own style of play. Most visitors play both in the same visit rather than choosing one — which is why the 2-game package (€21) is the most booked option for walk-in sessions.
The Jungle arena recreates an immersive jungle/Jurassic-style set: narrow passages, obstacles of varying height, and plenty of hiding spots. It rewards mobile play, where moving fast and repositioning matters as much as aiming well. It's the arena best suited to groups that prefer a fast, physical game, for kids and adults alike.
The Prison arena plays a different game: corridors, cells, enclosed zones. Play here is more tactical — spotting blind spots, holding a corridor and coordinating with your team matter as much as the final score. It's the arena that appeals most to groups who enjoy playing as a team, especially for team building.
The gear is LaserMaxx vests and blasters, the industry reference for shooting accuracy and vest reliability — a factor that matters when comparing laser game venues, since low-quality equipment is the number one source of player disappointment. Games are played in team mode or every player for themselves, from age 6.
Jungle or Prison, which one to choose?
The two terms are often mixed up in searches. Laser tag historically refers to a lighter version of the game, sometimes played outdoors, with simpler equipment. Laser game, as offered by Laser Magic, is played in a closed, themed arena, with a set built specifically for the game (obstacles, lighting, hiding spots).
In practice, in Belgium, both terms are used interchangeably by the public to describe the same activity: games played in an arena with laser blasters and vests. What really sets venues apart from each other is the quality of the set and the equipment — not the name used.
For a walk-in session (without an event package), prices are:
These prices apply to individual games, bookable with no minimum number of participants. For an organised event, prices change:
Full details of each package (content, minimum participants, options) are available on the dedicated pages, linked below.
The format is the same regardless of the arena chosen:
A few pointers for a first visit: keep moving rather than staying in one spot (the arenas are designed to penalise standing still), aim for the torso rather than the legs to maximise hits, and don't worry about your energy level — the vest recharges automatically after a few seconds of inactivity, so getting hit never eliminates you for good.
Playing two games lets you try both arenas in the same visit, which is the most common choice outside of event packages.
A laser game session lasts 15 minutes. The question that almost always follows is: what next?
On site, Laser Magic offers:
This combination is what most sets Laser Magic apart from a standard laser game limited to a single activity: a family or group of friends can go through laser game, mini-golf and arcade over a whole afternoon, all in the same place. The location helps too: in Machelen, 10 minutes from Brussels Airport and the ring road, the venue stays easy to reach from across the Brussels region without being right in the city centre, which makes parking easier.
Laser game works just as well as a walk-in outing or as an organised package:
Laser Magic holds a 4.6/5 rating across more than 250 Google reviews, spanning all types of packages (birthdays, team building, walk-in sessions). It's a useful benchmark for comparing laser game venues objectively before booking, beyond marketing descriptions.
A laser game session can be booked directly online, whether for a walk-in session or an event package.
A session lasts about 15 minutes of actual play, preceded by a briefing of around ten minutes. Count on 30 minutes in total, including check-in and gearing up.
At Laser Magic, one game costs €11 and two games cost €21, with no minimum number of participants for a walk-in session. Event packages (birthday, team building) are priced differently, per person and with a minimum number of participants.
Laser game is open from age 6 at Laser Magic. The kids' birthday packages are designed for the 7-14 age range.
After a briefing on the rules and equipment (vest and blaster), players enter the arena for a 15-minute game, in teams or solo. The score is displayed as you leave.
No minimum is required for a walk-in session at Laser Magic. Event packages (birthday, team building, school outing), however, have a minimum number of participants, generally between 8 and 10 people depending on the package.
