St. Nicholas Day on December 6, followed by Christmas: in Belgium, the gift-giving season spans just a few weeks. This page brings together ideas for giving the gift of an experience rather than an object, with virtual reality as the common thread.
Why Treat Someone to an Outing
An object is put away in a closet. An outing is recounted. A multiplayer virtual reality game brings together people who don't always have the chance to play together: parents and children, friends, and coworkers.
Ideas Tailored to the Individual
For children ages 7 and up
Four games are available for ages 7 and up, including *Frozen Castle* and *Christmas*, an escape game to save Christmas. Perfect for the whole family: parents can play too. For a VR birthday party, see “Birthdays by Age.”
For a teenager
Competitive games like Smash Point or thrill-seeking games are great for a group of friends. A gift card lets the teen choose the date with their friends. See also:Teen Birthday.
For a couple or friends
A virtual reality escape game is played by 2 to 4 or 6 players. It's a gift to enjoy together, followed by a visit to the VR-Hut bar to continue the evening.
For a team or employees
To treat your entire team to a special experience, the team-building page details the available packages, and the guide by team size helps you choose based on the number of participants. For bulk gift cards, please contact us through the gift card page.
Choose Based on Intensity
Each game in the catalog has an intensity rating. Jungle Quest is rated “mild”—it’s a great first introduction to virtual reality. Most escape games are rated “moderate.” Arcade games like Arvi Arena are more physically demanding, and the two House of Fear games, rated “horror” and “intense,” are for ages 12 and up. If you’re not sure, give a gift card: the recipient can choose a game with the staff on site.
Throw a party instead of a game
For a birthday in December or January, select your package when you make your reservation: see the Birthday and Adult Birthday pages. For a bachelor party or bachelorette party, the Bachelor Party and Bachelorette Party page explains the two options: individual and private events.
The VR-Hut Gift Card
The gift card is available in both digital and physical formats. You choose the amount: the available amounts correspond to a portion of an hour for 1 to 4 players, and you can also select a custom amount. The digital gift card is sent to you by email as soon as payment is processed; you can print it or forward it. The recipient can then make a reservation at any time on the reservation page.
The physical card is mailed: please allow time for delivery before the gift date. The digital card is sent by email as soon as payment is received.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can you give a VR-Hut gift card without selecting a date?
Yes. The gift card allows the recipient to choose the date and activity themselves, upon reservation.
Digital card or physical card?
Both options are available. The digital card is sent to you by email as soon as payment is processed; you can print it or forward it. The physical card is mailed to you, with shipping costs selected at checkout.
How does the recipient use it?
He books his session on the reservation page—either online or in person—using the card code.
