Contretype

How to unravel gender stereotypes in the collections? The virile, brutal man; the gentle, maternal, nurturing woman, confined to domestic roles; or on the contrary, the temptress, sinner, even guilty one: examples of stereotypes deeply rooted in the collective imagination and also conveyed through art.

On September 26, Viciosa and Gelatina join forces to present the biggest event dedicated to Latinx music at Les Halles de Schaerbeek, also marking the official opening of Les Halles’ 2026/2027 season. Last year, more than 1,700 of you filled the dancefloor. This year, we’re going even bigger: 4 international artists. 1 legendary venue. Una noche inolvidable! Headlining the night is AKRIILA (Chile), one of the most exciting voices in Latin American music today, bringing an exclusive live show to Brussels for the final stop of her first European tour. Next up, Metrika (Spain) takes over with a DJ set guaranteed to turn up the heat, followed by São Paulo powerhouse BADSISTA (Brazil), before the one and only Negraconda (Mexico) closes the night with an explosive set. And of course, no Viciosa × Gelatina without Vera Moro & Ricky Corazón, residents of both collectives, keeping the dancefloor on fire throughout the night. More than a party, this is a celebration of our community and of the boldest and most exciting sounds coming out of the contemporary Latin American and Spanish scenes. Expect an avalanche of reggaeton, dembow, guaracha, baile funk, latincore y mucho más! Free for Different Class members (subject to availability)
