LEGO Discovery Center is an absolutely amazing place, perfect for families with children aged 10 or younger. During my visit, I was blown away by the sheer amount of activities and attractions available, which kept us entertained for over 5 hours. The center offers a diverse range of experiences, making it an ideal destination for families seeking a fun-filled day out.
The 4D cinema and LEGO building workshops are just the beginning of the excitement. The addition of a laser shooting ride, soft play area, and climbing wall ensures that there's something for everyone. The opportunity to build LEGO vehicles and test them on ramps and loops adds an interactive and creative element to the visit. The highlight for many is the impressive LEGO city, complete with light-up and moving parts, providing an immersive and visually stunning experience.
The interactive elements extend to activities such as the bank robbery run through lasers, the rocket-building and launching onto a screen, and the chance to interact with planets and objects. The presence of a Duplo play area specifically designed for younger children ensures that every age group is catered to. The center goes above and beyond with the added bonus of being able to build your own mini figure upon entry, which can be taken home and used to interact with screens throughout the center.
In addition to the fantastic attractions, the café provided a pleasant surprise with its good value and quality food. It's always a relief to find tasty and reasonably priced options when spending a day out with the family.
One unexpected bonus was the lack of crowds. The absence of long queues meant that we could fully enjoy all the activities without any unnecessary waiting.
Overall, the LEGO Discovery Center exceeded my expectations with its diverse range of activities and interactive experiences. It's a fantastic destination for families looking to immerse themselves in the world of LEGO and create lasting memories. I highly recommend it for a fun-filled and...
Read moreI would like to give 0 stars for this experience but unfortunately, it is not possible.
The entrance price is a horrible 25 euros per person, taking into account that for example, at Efteling in Netherland -few days earlier I paid 45 euros and it is a gigantic amusement park.
Beside that I don't know why they put adults to pay aswell, it doesn't make any sense as to be honest there is nothing an adult can do here except taking care of the child.
The entire so-called "discovery center" is mostly made up of places where you can build themed Lego's like Lego City, Lego Friends, etc. Basically, you pay 25 euros for what exists, on a smaller scale, in any Lego store. They also have a mini cinema with two thematic films that last 8-10 minutes each, a mediocre playground with a few small slides a 2 minutes "avoid the green laser" game and a small restaurant.
The "icing on the cake" was the so-called gift at the end of the trip, consisting of a useless yellow plastic bracelet, although obviously every child expected at least a small lego toy taking into account the huge entrance price.
The only plus was represented by the 2-3 employees present in the center who were kind. At some point, however, they disappeared and you had no one to ask anything.
My kid was very dissapointed and I reconsider if I ever go in any other lego park around the world after this experience.
Don't go there in Bruxelles, there are better places to go and better...
Read moreIt's a fantastic place for kids and adults! My 4-year-old nephew had a fantastic time there when we visited in June. We spent at least 5 hours inside, as there is plenty to do even for children aged 1-3 (incl. the Duplo area). We need one of these in London! :)
My nephew loves building things from Lego and he enjoyed the various areas and interacting with the staff a lot. A big thanks to Elise for spending so much time with him and showing him all the nice things about Lego castles, cities, etc. She was great!
The only thing that could be improved is the food - the canteen is very big, but the food selection is rather poor. I guess this is done on purpose as they recognise that children are very fussy and parents usually bring food with them for the kids. Having said this, the food that we ordered was very tasty and the staff were all very helpful.
Overall, a fantastic experience for the whole family, which I can thoroughly recommend. I'm already looking forward to my nephew visiting Brussels again so that we can go back.
Tip 1: Try an visit on a weekday rather than the weekend. I can imagine this place being very busy on Sat-Sun. We went on a Friday during term time and it was very quiet (almost no-one else there, so we could enjoy all the fun things without the need to queue).
Tip 2: There's a microwave in the canteen, if you need to heat up your own food...
