Around fifty museums in Brussels taking part
If you’re a fan of culture and seeing Brussels by night, then there’s a special treat in store for you this autumn courtesy of Brussels’ Museums. Every Thursday evening during the season you can explore some of the gems among the city’s museums and enjoy a visit with a twist! There’s always a great atmosphere and you can join guided tours and workshops and much more besides – all of which lend these Late-Evening Openings (“Nocturnes”) a charm of their own.

To mark the 10th anniversary of the Late-Evening Openings, Brussels’ museums are pulling out all the stops and putting together a packed anniversary programme full of festive fun and activities!
