On Friday 20 June, Experience Factory Antwerp, the largest Family Entertainment Center (FEC) in Belgium, opened. It offers many different activities such as games and arcade. The absolute eye-catcher is the E-kart circuit of 1,1 kilometers long, the longest indoor E-kart track in Europe.
Visitors can immerse themselves in a versatile range of diverse activities, including Europe's first "Time Mission", an immersive action game where you as a time traveller have to complete the 25 missions as well as possible in order to save the world. But also digital axe throwing and darts, a kart circuit for children, an arcade hall and quiz and karaoke boxes. An absolute eye-catcher is the E-kart circuit of 1,1 kilometers long, spread over three levels. It is also the largest indoor kart track in Europe. With this opening an important milestone is reached in the redevelopment of this historic site, which will become a vibrant destination for families, groups of friends and companies.
Growth trajectory
What started in Eupen as an innovative and successful indoor leisure concept is getting an ambitious expansion. The Antwerp branch of the Experience Factory is housed in the former General Motors site and brings together the latest technologies from the world of indoor entertainment under one roof – a unique offering in Belgium.
Behind both branches of the Experience Factory is Evelien Bonneux, entrepreneur and manager. With her clear vision and entrepreneurship, she helps shape the future of leisure in Europe. The Antwerp branch is part of a broader redevelopment of the former car factory, and breathes new life into the industrial heritage of the city, with a strong focus on relaxation, technology and experience.
“Just like on our site in Eupen, we want to offer much more than just karting in Antwerp. We combine competitive activities for a broad target group with a nice sports bar and a strategic location a stone’s throw from Antwerp city centre. We are now also bringing the trend of competitive socializing to Antwerp.”
Managing Director Evelien Bonneux
The aim is to attract 200.000 to 400.000 visitors per year, including families, groups of friends and teambuildings of up to 750 people.
