Mark your calendars for September 20-28, 2024! Brussels will once again host the FAME Festival, a multidisciplinary event celebrating the work of women and gender minorities in the performing arts. This year’s edition, themed Futures, invites participants to explore new imaginaries and rethink the future through art, activism, and inclusivity.


FAME, standing for Where Arts Meet Empowerment, brings together theater, dance, concerts, workshops, films, and discussions. Set across more than a dozen iconic venues in Brussels, the festival showcases diverse voices from around the world, with a focus on empowering marginalized groups and reimagining our collective future.


One of the highlights includes a DJ night on September 27 at C12, featuring Kiddy Smile. The festival offers free discussions and workshops (with reservations), while performances are priced flexibly to encourage wide participation.

For those eager to engage with art that challenges societal norms and offers a space for reflection and community, FAME is not to be missed. Whether you’re into theater, music, or thought-provoking talks, FAME creates a platform where everyone can participate in building a more inclusive future.
