“Happy Belgium!”: spectacular concert and fireworks at Cinquantenaire Park

Talented Belgian artists are coming together to celebrate National Day and a decade of King Philippe's reign. To enjoy in person or live on TV on 21 July!

For the second year in a row, a spectacular free show organised by FPS Chancellery of the Prime Minister will provide a fitting end to the 21 July festivities in Cinquantenaire Park in Brussels.

This year, Belgian National Day coincides with the 10th anniversary of the reign of King Philippe. So there are two fantastic reasons for us to all come together and enjoy a celebratory evening under the theme of “Happy Belgium!”, in the presence of the Royal Family.

From 9pm, a number of Belgian artists will perform at a concert which promises to be full of surprises – not only to honour the King, but also Belgians who have distinguished themselves over the last decade. The artists will be accompanied by an orchestra conducted by Michel Bisceglia.

A fantastic laser, light and fireworks display, organised by the Syndicat d’initiative-Bruxelles Promotion, will round off the evening in style at 11pm.

Food trucks and bars will be set up in the park, and the giant screens will allow huge crowds to enjoy the show. The concert and the laser, light and fireworks finale will also be broadcast on the national TV channels La Une, VRT 1, BRF and Play4, as well as on TV5 Monde.

Artists

The following artists will be performing on Friday 21 July 2023: Ozark Henry, Mentissa, Gustaph, Colt, Paul Michiels, Rori, Axelle Red, Daan, Amber Broos, Loïc Nottet, Camille and Hamza.
