Culture

Wether you’re in for an opera or ready to rumble at an underground party: Brussels has something to offer for everyone. Well-known institutions like KVS or De Munt offer the world’s best concerts and plays, but smaller players in the cultural field have a lot going on too.

Sports

If you’re looking for something more challenging than beer glass lifting and course page flipping, you’re in luck. A lot of students keep active and practice one or more sports.
