Bright Brussels Festival is already celebrating its 10th edition, confirming its status as one of Brussels’ essential winter events. For this anniversary year, the city is going big with a majestic night-time itinerary in the historic centre, from 12 to 15 February 2026, between 6:30 pm and 11:00 pm. Over four evenings, Brussels will once again transform into a luminous playground, blending heritage, contemporary creation and a truly magical atmosphere.
On the programme, more than twenty light installations by Belgian and international artists will line a route linking the Parc de Bruxelles to the Royal Theatre of La Monnaie, passing by numerous iconic sites in the city centre. Each artwork interacts with the architecture and public space, offering visitors a new way to (re)discover the city, through monumental projections, luminous sculptures and interactive pieces.
Beyond the artistic trail, Bright Brussels is also strengthening its convivial, festive side. Bright Brussels Market invites you to wander among stalls, local creations and seasonal treats, while Bright Brussels Kids offers activities tailored to younger visitors so families can fully enjoy the festival together. New for this 10th anniversary: Bright Brussels Food, a culinary chapter showcasing the Brussels food scene, with plenty to warm up and indulge in between installations.
In ten years, Bright Brussels has become a key date in the winter cultural calendar, helping to make Brussels an attractive city-trip destination even in the middle of February. The festival offers a poetic, accessible and free nocturnal interlude that brings residents and visitors together around a shared, sensory experience of the city.
Get your scarves, gloves… and curiosity ready: for its 10th anniversary, Bright Brussels promises an unforgettable night-time journey, filled with magical, deeply Bruxellois moments.
