Why Choose Brussels?

Local Culture and Attractions

The heart of Europe

Brussels is an amazing city with numerous museums and a great architectural legacy. Why not discover local comic books, the surrealism movement, Art Nouveau architecture including the Queen and Saint-Hubert royal galleries. And we can’t forget the Grand-Place, Manneken-Pis and the Atomium.

Brussels is home to the European Commission, the European Parliament, and other EU institutions. With the world’s largest lobby industry and more than 1000 press correspondents, the heart of Europe is the place to be to run your events, conferences and exhibitions.

Did we mention…

Multi-Lingual As Belgium is a multi-lingual country and Brussels is the home to the EU, you will have no problem speaking English, French or Dutch in the City. You will be pleasantly surprised to hear how many people speak a lot of other languages too!

The chocolate, the waffles, the frites, the beers, and the Belgian cuisine?

Great flight and train connections Did you know Brussels is only 85 minutes by train from Paris? And only 2 hours from London? Brussels airport is located only 11km from the city centre and serves destinations all over the world. So, wherever you are coming from, it will be an easy and enjoyable journey.
