Histories Festival 2026

On October 10, the Histories Festival will take place in Brussels. This festival brings heritage volunteers and interested parties together for a day full of inspiration and meeting. WHAT IS THE HISTORIES FESTIVAL? Het Histories Festival is an inspiration and meeting day for every heritage lover in Flanders and Brussels. This year it will land in the KBR in Brussels — a beautiful setting for a day full of imagination and promising connections. A VERSATILE PROGRAM The program includes interactive workshops, striking lectures, fascinating sofa conversations, and stimulating demonstrations. For example, the Kunstberg will be transformed into a Viking village with the re-enactors of the Viking Society, heritage volunteers will talk about their ICE recognition, mindful heritage, and sustainable heritage operations, and you can ask all your questions about digitization, archiving, and family history during the various advice hours. To top it all off, you can network all day long during the heritage market with a nice cup of coffee or tea. Curious about the program? Discover it on our website: histories.be/festival.
