Free concerts aren’t all Boterhammen In Het Park has to offer. Every day from 26 to 30 August, you can stretch your legs with Brukselbinnenstebuiten’s fantastic city guides.

They will organise two walks every afternoon: one for families with children and one for adults and teens. They will depart from the AB info chalet on the festival site.

Walk: ‘Skirting the hard and soft boundaries of power’

A kiosk, a playground, some guinguettes… Brussels Park seems cosy, open and accessible. But don’t be fooled: the area around the park remains a display of hard power, with closed boundaries everywhere. The Royal Palace, the Parliaments and government offices, the embassies and the economic clubs are beyond the reach of mere mortals. Or take the new headquarters of BNP Paribas Fortis. It claims to serve a city where everyone is welcome, yet raises invisible boundaries that can nonetheless be felt everywhere. Our Brukselgids will guide you past hard and soft boundaries, teetering on the brink by your side… or taking you just one step beyond.
14:00 to 16:00 - € 7 pp. Read more here.
