Bright Brussels is a light festival, a fascinating journey through the city along artistic, interactive, playful installations.

Over 4 nights, more than 20 luminous artworks and just as many activities will guide you from the Brussels Park to the Royal Theatre of La Monnaie:

  • unprecedented mapping of the carillon at the Mont des Arts
  • tribute to sculptor Brâncuși at the Place Royale
  • sound immersion at La Monnaie Opera House
  • augmented reality in the courtyard of the City Hall
  • installation by Romain Tardy on the Senne river
  • ...

In addition to this extraordinary route, uncover real gems at the Bright Brussels Market, have fun with your little ones at Bright Brussels Kids and take a delicious break at the Bright Brussels Café. 

For its 10th edition, the festival will also feature a culinary programme with Bright Brussels Food.
