Foire du Midi, 19 July until 24 August 2025

The gigantic Foire du Midi is still in residence along the Boulevard du Midi for 2025. This year, the program features 130 attractions for young and old, both traditional and contemporary.

This edition resonates with a special brilliance: Belgian and French fairground culture has just been inscribed on the UNESCO Intangible Heritage List. Behind each attraction lies ancestral know-how passed down from generation to generation. Each fairground worker thus becomes the guardian of a living heritage, and each visitor witnesses a thousand-year-old culture that continues to inspire young and old alike.

Opening Hours: Saturday 19 July to Sunday 24 August
Every day from 1 p.m. to midnight (from 11 a.m. for food stalls)
Weekends and days before public holidays from 1 p.m. to 1 a.m.
