An Evening at a Brussels Museum

Autumn brings with it moody dark evenings, quieter streets, and woolly hats. But in Brussels it also brings with it a cultural extravaganza.

This is because, every Thursday night up to and including the 17^th of December, one can enjoy An Evening at a Brussels Museum. Make no mistake: this is not the title to an Agatha Christie novel; rather, it allows people to enjoy a night out in Brussels who otherwise couldn’t have one.

Anybody who works struggles to enjoy the vast cornucopia of museums on offer in Brussels – they all close early so it’s impossible to visit apart from at weekends. However, until the 17^th of December, every Thursday evening these museums will be staying open until 10pm.

What’s more, there is truly something for everyone: the Council for Brussels Museums has insisted that almost every museum stays open. The result, is pop-up cocktail bars and special events in the museums.

With prices cut to a mere €2.50 entry fee, a Thursday night out in Brussels can be the perfect start to a long weekend. Don’t let us stop you…
