Brussels les Bains

Usually this requires some summer weather......but only in Belgium....

Bathing costumes, sunglasses and suntan lotions will invade for one month the que of the barges of the town of Brussels. Organized from July 18ntil August 17 "Brussels les bains" will transform the Béco basin and the place Sainctelette located in the North of the city in a true seaside resort with multiple activities.

Sports, cultural, shopping events and food stalls will all be found in a larger than life décor made of sand beach, palm trees and other exotic plants. In addition to sun tanning and the many other proposed activities, visitors will be able to throw themselves into various water fountains and other water activities but also enjoy beach related sports such as Beach-Volley or Beach-Soccer.

Brussels Beach a Success

The city of Brussels and its event planning bureau say the fifth edition of Brussel Bad was a success. The city beach along the canal on the Saincteletteplein in Brussels drew almost a half million visitors. The weekends were busy because of the sunny weather, but the weekdays were disappointing because of the clouds and rain.
The 70 musical acts drew an average of 150 to 350 spectators. The on-site library loaned out 800 books to beachgoers. No fewer than 130,000 cocktails were served during the event.
