This region has so much to offer music groups

Wallonia lies in the southern part of Belgium and is its French-speaking region. Sharing its border with France, Germany and Luxembourg, Wallonia incorporates the beautiful Ardennes, a hilly, green area which is a well-visited tourist destination. This region has so much to offer music groups: an area of outstanding natural beauty, it also gives visitors the chance to experience the fascinating culture of the Wallonian region. Perfect for groups who have already toured to Belgium, who may be looking for a new affordable location in the same country, Wallonia’s many venues make it ideal for any ensemble type.

Concerts

We love arranging concerts in Wallonia.

There is such enthusiasm amongst those who organise the events in which our groups take part. Many of the gorgeous town squares offer an excellent backdrop to afternoon concerts, often providing a purpose-built stage or a bandstand. Churches across the region also welcome choirs and orchestras and concerts are generally well-attended. Nearby Brussels gives groups the opportunity to perform on the bandstand in the Royal Park, while Brussels Cathedral is a wonderful venue for those with a classical and sacred repertoire.
