Since its opening in October 2023, UMI has redefined Brussels’ nightlife by seamlessly blending art and music. Located at 10 Rue du Marché aux Fromages, this cultural hub has become a beacon for inclusivity and creativity.
Now, UMI is extending an invitation to FINTA (female, intersex, non-binary, trans, agender) creatives with bold visions for new events. The Project Pitching Session is an incubator designed to support and uplift emerging FINTA event organizers. If you have an idea that challenges the status quo and brings something fresh to the scene, this is your chance to refine it with industry professionals and make valuable connections within Brussels’ nightlife.
