Photo Story: Bright Brussels, 13-16 February 2020.

Bright Brussels is taking over our city from 13 to 16 February for another edition of amazing light decorations to brighten up our winter days! Our photographer Aris Setya visited the festival and made some cool shots to keep us all inspired! 🙂

Bright Brussels is a festival of lights, a fascinating itinerary through Brussels made up of about twenty interactive, playful and captivating light installations. The event is free and open to everyone. Most shows are visible from 19:00 to 23:00 during the four evenings of the festival (from 13 to 16 February 2020).

Most illuminated buildings and installations are located in the city’s historical centre. Don’t miss to visit areas of Place Poelaert, Marolles, Royal Quarter and Sablon neighbourhoods to the Halle Gate.

The festival represents a great chance to discover the rich heritage of different Brussels neighbourhoods, seen from another perspective.
