WELCOME

Welcome Whichever way you measure it, Brussels is now a ‘power’ city. One of the world’s magnetic centres, drawing in everything around it, Brussels is an irresistible meeting place for organisations from Europe, and increasingly from around the world. Of course this power comes firstly from Brussels’ role as capital of 500 million Europeans. Beyond the decision-makers of the European Commission and Parliament, Brussels hosts a heavyweight press corps, an influential lobbying industry and the headquarters of thousands of international organisations. There is also the pull of Brussels, the city. Regular visitors have noticed how the city has matured in recent years, carrying its responsibilities with laid-back confidence, and a good dose of humour as well. Outside the corridors of power, Brussels still retains the charm of its local heritage and quality of life. The force of Brussels is confirmed by the latest rankings from the Union of International Associations (UIA) which rates it the N° 1 European conference city, and second in the world. No less than seven million people attended a meeting in Brussels last year. We hope you will be one of those who do so this year. Let’s meet in Brussels in 2011…the European power city!

Opting for the BELvue museum and Former Palace of Brussels as your choice of venue for your prestigious events, is opting to travel through more than nine centuries of history in the heart of Europe. From the 12th century onwards, successive monarchs transformed a small fortified castle into a sumptuous residential palace, one of the most beautiful European palaces and one of Charles V’s main residences. This prestigious building was severely damaged by fire in 1731 and it is beneath the place Royale that you will discover its remains, the archaeological site of the Coudenberg. The BELvue museum will take you through the story of a small country, an amazing story of a piece of land called Belgium. The museum’s magnificent setting is a former 18th century luxury hotel that has recently been beautifully renovated and is itself steeped in history. It offers the visitors an exceptional view of the royal palace and its gardens.

Concert Noble

Europe District Map M12 See p.41

Elegance and refinement Right from the beginning, in 1785, “Concert Noble” has been conceived as a meeting place. First it was restricted to noblemen and women and later it became a well cherished gathering place of people of distinction.This is still so today. Whether you organize a banquet or a ball, a fashion show or a press conference, “Concert Noble” offers you the most exclusive venue in Brussels. Located in the heart of Brussels, within walking distance from the European Institutions, you can hardly find a better location. “Concert Noble” consists of a “cascade” of stately rooms in different sizes culminating in the famous Ballroom, which can seat up to 450 guests for a banquet. The lounges provide a unique setting for receptions up to 730 persons. The rooms can be rented entirely (800 m2) or partially. Words can not describe the elegant atmosphere of “Concert Noble”. We invite you to contact us, we will be pleased to show you around.

Forest National / Vorst Nationaal

Brussels West Map B3

Forest National is since 1970 active in presenting concerts, musicals and sports events for the public. This resulted in a phenomenal list of artists and shows over the years and has put Brussels on the schedule of every international tour manager. With Maurice Béjart’s Ballets, the venue’s grand opening celebration in 1970 has set the tone for quality from the first day onwards and has made it one of the most beloved arenas of the public, the promotors and the artists. An impressive list of names of artists and bands of all the styles that contemporary music has to offer, have performed on the mythical stage of Forest National. The Rolling Stones, Queen or U2, Ella Fitzgerald, Janet Jackson, Diana Ross, Kylie Minogue, Bob Marley, Indochine, Gloria Estefan, Iron Maiden and last but not least Belgium’s finest artists dEUS, Hooverphonic, Ozark Henry or Axelle Red, they all had their moment of glory, their standing ovation in Forest National.

A member of Anthony Martin’s “Finest Beer selection” since 1993, Timmermans retains its authenticity and “savoir-faire” whilst enjoying membership of Martin’s unique selection of “Finest Beers”. A unique process Timmermans brews only traditional Lambic; the basic beer that, from “spontaneous fermentation”, is used throughout the entire range. Brewing Lambic, without adding yeast, is a complex and subtle art requiring recipes and patience passed on by the family. Lambics survive thanks to a handful of Brussels breweries and the presence of two micro-organisms that exist only in the Senne Valley: Brettanomyces Bruxellensis and Brettanomyces Lambicus. By adding fruit and spices, the magic of traditionallymade beers unravels: Strawberry, Kriek, Pêche, Framboise, but also Oude Gueuze, Oude Kriek, Kriek Retro, Gueuze, Faro or Lambicus Blanche. Brewery Timmermans with its renewed museum and new exposition room, can be visited daily, including weekend. Also open every 2nd Sunday of the month from 2 pm till 5 pm. Registration required by website. Also possibilities for your meetings brewery, visits with degustations and banquets. Contact: Martine Vermander +32 2 569 03 57

La Manufacture

Tucked away in Rue Notre-Dame du Sommeil... A former printworks, this was also the hideout of the Delvaux leather factory. Until it took on a new apparel, clad in leather, wood, cobalt blue stone, red granite, with its brick walls exhibiting the contrasts of softly filtered lights. Flavours of Old World culinary tradition are juxtaposed with the lightness of Asiatic cuisine, in harmony with the pace and colour of the seasons. The wines add delicious exoticism to the menu, without spurning the traditional classic crus.

• Good communication. We believe that a truly successful preparation is only possible through a well-organized communication, between ourselves and our clients but also between ourselves and the other parties involved: sponsors, suppliers and last but not least, the participants. • Set your mind at rest! We believe that our clients should be able to fully concentrate on the content and purpose of the meeting, the area in which they are specialised. This is only possible if they can set their minds at rest over logistical and administrative matters. The best advocates for the quality of our services are our satisfied clients.

SIZED FOR NETWORKING There’s no substitute for local knowledge. Knowing where to meet, where to stay, where to eat - and where not to. If you are organizing your meeting or congress in Brussels, send us a «Request for Proposal». Whether you choose to work through local organizers or not, we can show you the opportunities and advise you what’s best for your needs. All non-binding of course, and free of charge.

Fill in your request for proposal at:
