Fairs, shows and congresses

Central and accessible

Boasting a central location in the heart of Belgium and the European Union, Brussels offers easy access. An extensive rail network and the nearby Brussels Airport (just 20 minutes from the centre) ensure that visitors and delegates can quickly get to their destination.

International connections

Brussels is not only the nerve centre of Belgium. It is also the seat of an array of European institutions as well as international businesses and organisations. Multilingualism is a given.

But there’s more

It’s worth remembering that Brussels is a dynamic green region with a huge number of cultural and leisure opportunities. You can also enjoy some of the Brussels specialities in one of the thousands of restaurants and cafés.
