September agenda: Lunchtime concerts in the EU Quarter

Lunchtime concerts in the Brussels’ EU Quarter continue this September with a series of concerts in the beautiful Citizens’ Garden. As usual, concerts take place at 13h with free access for everyone. Due to unfavorable weather conditions, some of the concerts might take place at the Info Hub of the European Parliament.

Lunchtime concerts are a great idea if you want to spend a relaxed moment on a busy day in Brussels and immerse into music in the heart of the bustling EU district. From Monday to Thursday, the public can join classical music performances by different musicians and ensembles.

This is a unique opportunity to see world-renowned musicians from Brussels and beyond perform in an intimate outdoor setting. The programme features an eclectic mix of styles, from classical to opera, jazz and world, so there is something for everybody to enjoy.

About the garden
The Citizens’ Garden has opened to the public in 2020, located in the grounds of the former residence of painter Antoine Wiertz. The European Parliament has helped to preserve Brussels’ heritage by restoring the garden. The concerts hark back to the soirées and gatherings organised by the 19th century Belgian artist, who modelled the garden on ancient Greece and Rome.

Due to weather conditions, concerts for the last week of the season from 23-26 September will exceptionally take place at the Info Hub (Esplanade Solidarność) at 1 pm, in the Conference room on the 1st floor.
