We’re thrilled to announce that our ACB Ommegang Dinner is back this year at the iconic Roy d’Espagne! Mark your calendars: this year’s celebration falls on July 4th — so come and celebrate Independence Day in a quintessentially Belgian way!
This is a spectacular affair, and one of the biggest festivals in the country. For the 92nd edition of this historic show, the ACB is excited to offer once again members and guests a unique opportunity to view the Ommegang procession on the Grand-Place, while dining in the private dining room of the Roy d'Espangne with its birds eye view of the procession! We have a very international crowd attending of over 50 people so this is also a great networking event!
The parade and show are part of the folklore of Brussels, with 1,400 actors, folk and historic groups, horses, puppet theatre, giants, flags, and more. The celebration honours the coming of Charles the Fifth to Brussels in 1549.
