A must-see annual event for anyone passionate about architectural heritage, from Art Nouveau and Art Deco to modernism, the BANAD 2026 programme is now online. Once again, the festival unfolds over three weeks, offering a rich and diverse celebration of architecture and heritage.
The programme features around sixty interior visits, including twelve exceptional locations opening to the public for the very first time, as well as some fifty guided routes exploring Brussels and its surroundings through the lens of architecture and heritage. Visitors can also enjoy inclusive activities adapted to various disabilities, original talks for both specialists and the general public, a guided visit to a restoration site, exhibitions in dialogue with the festival, activities for children, an on-site jazz evening, tasting walks and much more. Not to be missed are the specialist bookshop and the ever-popular Objects Fair, accompanied by its Experts’ Lounge. Spread across three weekends (14–15, 21–22 and 28–29 March 2026) and three geographical areas, the BANAD Festival offers a rich and varied programme designed for both first-time visitors and seasoned architecture enthusiasts.
