What are the Brussels Days?
The Brussels Days are set up as a promotion event to show the world what Brussels has to offer.
The aim of the Brussels-Capital Region is to strengthen its position on the international stage, make optimum use of its economic potential, demonstrate or confirm its talents and know-how, highlight its cultural riches and its way of living. Brussels is a city that dares to tackle its ambitions and design large-scale projects.
