Our objective is to popularise science.

To this end, our activities are simultaneously interactive, rewarding and fun.

The Voyager Café welcomes you from 9 am to 5 pm, offering hot meals between 11:30 am and 3 pm. You will find a variety of meals, desserts, snacks, as well as hot and cold beverages. Enjoy our outdoor spaces, including our covered terrace, Sun Square, and Cosmic Valley, where picnics are welcome.

Space adventure camps

We organise camps (ages 6 to 18, with room and board or daytime-only) which are unique in Europe and held during school breaks. These camps are a unique opportunity for children to get a close look at the lives of astronauts, astronomers and aerospace engineers. We promise to make your child a space hero! To do this, the children are supervised by a passionate and professional team. Our programme includes 11 different themes and is constantly evolving.

The camps are structured around a programme that includes 35 hours of activities over 5 days. Four meals per day are included in our full room and board offering. The children also receive two T-shirts with a Euro Space Center print, a diploma, a souvenir photo, a badge based on the camp chosen, a gift and their creations from the camp.

Euro Space Center has been organising camps for children for 30 years. Its success has been growing and it currently welcomes more than 1,000 children every year. The children are loyal to the Euro Space Center and many of them come back year after year. Our satisfaction rate is 94.3%. A space adventure camp is also an opportunity to be a part of the Euro Space Center’s astronaut community and to continue the adventure through our Space Lab, online conferences, and an active Facebook page. Our slogan: Creator of space heroes!

Yes. Each camp caters to a specific age group. In addition, the groups are designed to minimise age differences.

During the day, the children are supervised by a professional and passionate team that oversees the many activities included in the programme. In the evening, our monitors take over and your child can participate in a film session or indoor or outdoor group games, if the weather allows.

You can see photos and view posts about their daily activities on a blog accessible only to parents who have signed their child up for the camp. We also provide a mail correspondence service for parents/children who are interested.

Whereas training an astronaut at the ESA can cost nearly €12 million, your child can become a space hero starting at €435, with full room and board.

The ideal solution is, of course, to select a camp with full room and board.

For daytime-only camps, we are happy to welcome your child from 8:00 in the morning to 17:00 in the afternoon.

On Friday, we provide day-care until 17:30.

We can tailor the food according to requests made prior to the start of the camp if your child suffers from specific food allergies or has to eat a special diet.

We form groups of maximum 16 children by age.

Our rooms host up to 10 children. Boys and girls are in separate rooms.

Science at School

...

Les écoles désireuses de s'inscrire aux ateliers doivent impérativement se situer en province de Namur ou du Luxembourg. Ces ateliers sont réservés aux classes de 5 et 6ème (ou 5/6ème regroupée) primaire avec un maximum de 28 élèves.

Family weekends, or "minitrips" are for families or groups of friends from minimum 4 people.

Minors under the age of 16 must be accompanied.
