Scored last minute tickets to see Cigarettes after Sex and WOW what a beautiful venue…read more A small intimate venue that opened in 1878 with a capacity of about 3500 spectators. Once served as the only permanent circus in Belgium, as well as nautical shows and even a cinema, it's now mainly used for live music shows. The venue is comprised of 3 levels, Upper concourse, Lower concourse, and Floor. Tickets were sold as general admission with a designated level but never saw anyone enforcing any of the seating. Don't get any funny ideas, haha, I only mention this because it's fascinating how the venue pretty much runs on the honor system, a system that would never work here in America. The floor would be saturated with upper level ticket holders at the Forum or Madison Square Garden, just saying. Another fascinating system is the way you buy beer. They have a token system in place that requires 1 or 2 tokens per beer, depending on the beer which makes for a faster transaction and shorter wait time. Well done. By far one of the most beautiful venues I've ever been to,

There are permanent expositions some of them are free of charge, some are temporary, and theyhave a fee. Each type has a different entrance, which absolves you from having to stand in line too long. The cashier was very friendly and helpful. I arrived at a moment where the expo was completely empty so I had the room to myself which was great. This is a place where art fanatics will have a blast as the Beursshouwburg brings people together for events, concerts and much much more. Definitely worth the visit, for whichever occasion you prefer. They also have a café for drinks after the shows: they have get togethers there as well, last time I was there there was a mini concert going on.

Love the fact that the e-newsletter acknowledges there are expats with little knowledge of local language and so there is an English option for subscribers. They have storage lockers at the back which you pay 50 cents for, but you get the money back when you unlock it. Also really like the convenient location - super easy to here from all parts of Brussels. Can't wait to go back here for another event.
