Arts at Night

During Arts at Night, the Mont des Arts shifts perspective. This edition, titled Shifting Gazes, invites you into a night where seeing is never neutral. From image to gaze, from archive to desire, three major cultural venues open their doors for an afterhours drift through evolving ways of looking. Explore exhibitions at twilight and enjoy

music and sunset views from the city’s rooftops.

Curated by ELS.

What to expect

Access to three cultural venues. With one combo ticket, you can visit three cultural venues on the Mont des Arts, each offering its own programme:

• KBR museum: a curatorial programme blending heritage and contemporary perspectives, connected to KBR’s medieval manuscripts and the temporary museum trail In the Footsteps of Bart Van Loo and the Burgundians.
• Bozar: discover Picture Perfect. Beauty through a Contemporary Lens, alongside Delcy Morelos’ Bozar Monumental in the Horta Hall, offering an immersive experience at the heart of the evening.
• Royal Museums of Fine Arts of Belgium (RMFAB): experience the permanent collection through a renewed lens, including the presentation Art x Gender,exploring dialogues between art, identity, and representation.

Outdoor animations and rooftops

The Mont des Arts transforms into a lively cultural landscape. The rooftops of Bozar and KBR offer drinks, music, and a relaxed summer atmosphere overlooking the city. A food truck near the Royal Museum completes the experience.
