Autumn brings with it moody dark evenings, quieter streets, and woolly hats. But in Brussels it also brings with it a cultural extravaganza.
This is because, every Thursday night up to and including the 17th of December, one can enjoy An Evening at a Brussels Museum. Make no mistake: this is not the title to an Agatha Christie novel; rather, it allows people to enjoy a night out in Brussels who otherwise couldn’t have one.
Anybody who works struggles to enjoy the vast cornucopia of museums on offer in Brussels – they all close early so it’s impossible to visit apart from at weekends. However, until the 17th of December, every Thursday evening these museums will be staying open until 10pm.
What’s more, there is truly something for everyone: the Council for Brussels Museums has insisted that almost every museum stays open. The result, is pop-up cocktail bars and special events in the museums.
With prices cut to a mere €2.50 entry fee, a Thursday night out in Brussels can be the perfect start to a long weekend. Don’t let us stop you…
