UPCOMING EVENTS!

ACB Annual OMMEGANG DINNER

Opening Night - Wednesday July 1st, 2026 at 19:00

Roy d'Espagne, Grand Place

We're delighted to be returning to the iconic Roy d'Espagne for our annual ACB Ommegang Dinner — and what a setting it is. Perched above the Grand Place, it offers one of the finest views of the Ommegang procession in all of Brussels. The photo below is from one of our guests last year! 

The best part? While spectators in the market square pay between €55 and €85 for a seat, our guests enjoy the full spectacle from the comfort of a three-course dinner — included in the price.

Watch the Ommegang trailer on YouTube

The Ommegang is Brussels at its most theatrical: 1,400 performers, horses, giants, flag-throwers, puppet theatre, and grand historical pageantry commemorating Emperor Charles V's magnificent entry into the city in 1549. A UNESCO-recognised tradition, it is quite simply one of the great spectacles of the European calendar.

We always have a very international group of over 60 guests, making the evening as much about wonderful company and conversation as the show itself. Whether you're a returning guest or joining us for the first time, it promises to be a truly memorable night. 

Cash Bar Cocktail Hour followed by a 3 Course Dinner Menu 

The evening begins with a cash bar from 19:00, giving guests a chance to mingle before dinner.   At 20:00 our 3 course dinner will start which inludes ½ liter of water and ½ bottle of house wine per person.
