Pacer 2026

Met Gangmaker we are kicking off the new cultural season with a free weekend full of fresh faces, new voices, and surprising talents. And all of that in the most beautiful locations in our city. On Friday, September 11, we start at the Citadel, where Cinema Paradiso opens the film season with the filmmakers of the future. On Saturday, September 12, the Begijnhof (yes, UNESCO World Heritage!) takes over for the Gangmaker showcase festival: a vibrant evening full of new music, humor, and theater, where you wander from discovery to discovery. Let yourself be surprised, let yourself be carried away, and become part of the magic. Are you ready to become an explorer? From Monday, June 29, we will announce our first batch of artists. So be sure to keep an eye on our socials and website!
