About

Inaugurated in its current form in 2004, the Théâtre National Wallonie‑Bruxelles is the flagship stage of Belgium’s French‑speaking community, located on Boulevard Émile Jacqmain in central Brussels. Its striking contemporary architecture houses three adaptable performance spaces, from the grand main auditorium to the intimate Jacques Huisman hall and a versatile studio, all equipped with cutting‑edge technology. The theatre’s programme spans theatre, dance, and multidisciplinary works, with a strong focus on collaboration between artists, cultural institutions, and the public. Committed to artistic excellence, critical thinking, and accessibility, it serves as both a creative hub and a civic space, hosting everything from avant‑garde premieres to major cultural events, including the Magritte Awards, while remaining deeply connected to the city’s vibrant cultural life.
