Before the musicians of Brussels Philharmonic embark on their holidays, you still have the opportunity to hear them perform at a few summer festivals held in surprising locations!
Summer officially begins on June 21st. And the MIVB/STIB network will also be basking in the summer vibe! In several trams and metros, you will enjoy high-quality live music on Wednesday afternoon, performed by the musicians of Brussels Philharmonic. The orchestra will conclude with a free concert at 16:00 in Rogier metro station.
