Before Your Visit
Reserving online is your best bet: weekend and school-holiday slots fill quickly, and a reservation secures the exact hour that suits you — no waiting in line.
You can visit Monday through Thursday between 10:00 - 17:00 and Friday through Sunday between 10:00 - 19:00. Holiday hours can differ — the booking page always shows current availability.
Definitely! Young and old experience the illusions in their own way — what amazes a five-year-old intrigues a grandparent just as much.
We'd love that! From 10 people you can simply book via the website. Planning a school trip or team day? Email us and we'll work out a format that fits.

Yes — and then some! The whole museum is built to be photographed. Share your best shots online and feel free to tag us.
The ground floor is fully accessible, but unfortunately the building does not currently have a lift to the upper floor. This is due to structural constraints of the building. The city of Antwerp is working on a solution and we hope to offer full accessibility in the future. Feel free to contact us ahead of your visit so we can make your experience as enjoyable as possible.
There are no lockers, but bags and backpacks can come along inside. The lighter you travel, the more comfortable the visit.
