On Saturday, October 17, 2026, Museum Night Fever returns for its 19th edition, offering access to 28 Brussels museums from 7 PM to 1 AM.

For this festive evening, a specially designed program awaits visitors. The iconic venues of Brussels nightlife, C12 and Botanique, will once again host the two afterparties. The organizer, Brussels Museums, promises a night full of discoveries.
The varied program will blend cabaret, live tattoo performances, improvisation, videomapping, and dance. Visitors can enjoy traditional music, dystopian soundscapes, or rumba rhythms. The public can choose to actively participate in the proposed activities or simply enjoy the show.
For the first time, the Brussels City Hall joins the Museum Night Fever adventure. The Sewer Museum and the Belgian Beer World Experience are making their return. Institutions such as the Art & History Museum, Bozar, Train World, and the BELvue Museum will also welcome the public.
