Concerts Place des Palais/Paleizenplein
On Monday 30 June and Tuesday 1 July 2025
Place des Palais/Paleizenplein is preparing for the first open air concerts of this summer. On Monday 30 June, Neil Young will grace a Belgian stage again for the first time in 6 years, and on Tuesday 1 July Jean-Michel Jarre will hypnotize the crowd with his electronic dance music. And if these shows leave you wanting for more, you can also enjoy performances by Kraftwerk and DJ Solomun this summer.
