Summary of the article

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.

The 2 arenas at Laser Magic: Jungle and Prison

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?

  • Group with young children or first-time players → Jungle, more intuitive and more mobile.
  • Group looking for a tactical game (team building, experienced players) → Prison.
  • Can't decide → the 2-game package to try both arenas in the same visit.

Laser game or laser tag: what's the difference?

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.

Laser game prices in Machelen

For a walk-in session (without an event package), prices are:

  • 1 laser game: €11
  • 2 laser games: €21
  • Mini-golf (12 holes): €10

These prices apply to individual games, bookable with no minimum number of participants. For an organised event, prices change:

  • Kids' birthday party: from €18/child, minimum 8 to 10 children depending on the package.
  • Team building: from €23.5/person (Quick Event package), minimum 10 people. Packages with a meal range from €31.5 to €65/person depending on the menu.
  • School outing: dedicated package on request, adapted to groups of students.

Full details of each package (content, minimum participants, options) are available on the dedicated pages, linked below.

How a laser game session works

The format is the same regardless of the arena chosen:

  • Welcome and briefing — rules and equipment explained, about 10 minutes.
  • Gearing up — vest and blaster, quick setup.
  • The game — 15 minutes of play in the arena, team or solo.
  • Results — a score count is displayed as you leave the arena.

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.

Beyond laser game: mini-golf, arcade and bowling

A laser game session lasts 15 minutes. The question that almost always follows is: what next?

On site, Laser Magic offers:

  • an outdoor 12-hole mini-golf course (seasonal), for €10;
  • an arcade area with virtual bowling and game machines (indoor Luna Park);
  • a restaurant/bistro on site, to extend the outing without leaving the venue.

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.

What occasion to come for laser game?

Laser game works just as well as a walk-in outing or as an organised package:

  • Kids' birthday party — Laser Magic offers dedicated packages (laser game sessions, arcade, snack), from €18/child depending on the package. See the kids' birthday packages.
  • Team building — Quick Event packages (laser game + light refreshments) and Dinner Event packages (laser game + meal) are available from 10 people. See the team building packages.
  • School outing — a dedicated package exists for groups of students. See the school outing packages.
  • Outing with friends or family — walk-in games (€11 / €21) are enough, no package booking needed.
