The Events in Belgium

Ok, but when does the party start?

In Belgium they have a real knack for celebrating! There are all kinds of celebrations: folkloric (OMMEGANG (BRUXELLES), DOUDOU, PROCESSION OF THE GOLDEN CARRIAGE AND BATTLE OF THE LUMECON - ST. WAUDRU PROCESSION (MONS), GOUYASSE VESPERS & PROCESSION OF THE GIANTS (FAIR) - DUCASSE OF ATH (ATH), PLANTING OF THE MAYTREE (BRUXELLES), AUGUST 15 FESTIVAL AT OUTREMEUSE (LIEGE) and CARNIVAL OF THE GILLES OF BINCHE (BINCHE)), historical (THE BATTLE OF WATERLOO - MAJOR HISTORICAL RECONSTRUCTION (WATERLOO)), theme parties, trendy parties, techno parties, for those who love Great music (QUEEN ELISABETH OF BELGIUM INTERNATIONAL MUSIC COMPETITION (BRUXELLES)), jazz Jazzy Nights!) or world music (COULEUR CAFE FESTIVAL (BRUXELLES)) and for everyone else (, FRANCOFOLIES OF SPA - FRENCH CHANSON FESTIVAL (SPA),, MUSIC FESTIVAL : CHORAL NIGHT (BRAINE-L'ALLEUD), BELOEIL NIGHT OF MUSIC (BELOEIL) and the FESTIVAL OF WALLONIA (WALLONIE))!

In the streets (NAMUR IN MAY - FESTIVAL OF THE FAIRGROUND ARTS (NAMUR),INTERNATIONAL STREET ARTS FESTIVAL (CHASSEPIERRE) and FLOWER CARPET ON THE GRAND PLACE OF BRUSSELS (BRUXELLES)), in the parks during winter and especially the festivals during summer (The Summer Festivals) mark the seasons with strange instruments, during colourful parades (ZINNEKE PARADE 2010 (BRUXELLES)) in the streets.

Both in Wallonia and Brussels, there are plenty of festivals (The Summer Festivals) including cinema (INTERNATIONAL LOVE FILM FESTIVAL (MONS), BRUSSELS INTERNATIONAL FESTIVAL OF FANTASY, THRILLER AND SCIENCE FICTION FILM- BIFFF (BRUXELLES), INTERNATIONAL FRENCH-LANGUAGE FILM FESTIVAL - FIFF (NAMUR), and ANIMA 2010 : CARTOON AND ANIMATED FILM FESTIVAL (IXELLES)).
