“What’s there to do in Brussels?” —the question that comes up every weekend. Between an exhibition you’ve already seen, unpredictable weather, and the desire to do something out of the ordinary, coming up with a good idea quickly becomes a headache. Terminal 1, in the heart of Brussels Expo, brings together under one roof what most people are looking for all over the city: free-roam virtual reality, augmented reality go-karting, an immersive escape room adventure, a spectacular exhibition, and a Food Hub to extend the evening. Here are our ideas for things to do in Brussels, no matter what your plans are.
For a truly immersive "wow" experience
If you’re looking for something you can’t do at home, start with immersive experiences. The Tutankhamun exhibition in Brussels immerses visitors of all ages in ancient Egypt through giant projections, while virtual reality games transport you to entire worlds where you can explore freely, without cables, and with others.
For the thrill and the competition
Want to compete against your friends? The Supercube reinvents karting with augmented reality: a digital track that changes with every race. For drivers, The Sim Power offers ultra-realistic driving simulators. And the After-H Battle Arena transforms VR into a PvP arena where only the fastest team wins.
Let's Think About It Together
Time Mission offers immersive escape room adventures lasting 60 to 120 minutes: puzzles, teamwork, and a sense of timing, in teams of 2 to 5 players. It’s ideal when you’re looking for an activity that brings people together rather than just simple entertainment.
An idea for every occasion

Why put everything in one place?

VR in the morning, go-karting in the afternoon, and a drink at the Food Hub to wrap things up—all at Brussels Expo (Hall 1), with on-site parking and easy access. Instant confirmation, free cancellation up to 24 hours in advance.
