Brussels Summer Festival 2016 – Music in the city!

The Brussels Summer Festival (BSF) is one of the major music events of the year in the EU capital. A festival in the heart of the city started in 2002. under the name Eurit’mix and stemmed from the shared will of Brussels’ cultural, institutional and tourism actors to offer a cultural event at the very heart of the capital of Europe during the summer.

This year, BSF will have its anniversary – the 15th edition will take place from 5th to 14th August 2016 between the Palais Royal and the Mont des Arts. The motto of this year’s festival is: We love music. We love Brussels!

Part of the festival is also the “Feel the City” programme, which offers a wide array of side activities and museum passes, the BSF is without doubt the multi-cultural, festive and popular summer event, not to be missed! Last year, more than 125 000 spectators attended the festival !

The BSF offers a wide range of different music, from rock to hip hop, jazz, pop or still, world music.

The BSF line-up can be found here, and you can also join the Brussels Summer Festival community on Facebook.
