Events & Public Holidays in Brussels Belgium
     |
| Brussels
has more than its fair share of special events. The tourist office can
give you a complete list. Some highlights include the International Cartoon
& Animated Film Festival, the Valentine's Day weekend Chocolate Passion
Fair and Carnival, all held in February; the summer solstice spectacular
of Ommegang, celebrating the annual migration of the Virgin Mary from
Antwerpen to Brussels; August's Tapis des Fleurs, when the Grand Place
is carpeted with flowers; and March? de No?l, a market that envelopes
downtown Brussels in the weeks preceding Christmas. Belgium also opens a handful of its protected monuments on selected weekends in September for Heritage Days. Different historic buildings are chosen each year, attracting thousands of Belgians and tourists alike. Sites in Brussels are usually opened the third weekend in September. |
