The European Quarter Brussels brand will become more and more present in the public domain. EUQB is a shared brand: our partners enabled us to develop the brand, bring it to life, create a trusted brand and strengthen the European Quarter’s image. You might have noticed or you will notice in the coming months: digital or printed postering in metro and railway stations, on facades, on picnic benches in parks or postcards in museums and shops! We would like to thank the SNCB, the STIB, Equama, JC Decaux, Bauer Media Outdoor, the City of Brussels, the communes of Etterbeek and Ixelles, Belgian Posters and 2Advice for their excellent collaboration. In the long term, this will help creating a strong image and brand for our neighbourhood. Want to participate and order postcards? Click here.

A number of projects are underway across the neighbourhood, and at various stages. These include the new community centre located in the Vanaudenhove pavilion, the European Parliament hemicycle, the Justus Lipsius building, the Natural Sciences Museum and the Wiertz Museum, the cycle-pedestrian bridge and, of course, Schuman roundabout. In addition to these public projects, ongoing projects are reintroducing housing to the neighbourhood, such as the Infinito-Isala, Loom, Capital One, Leo Mole III, the Leopold, Arts 40 and Belmont projects.

Closed since 2021 following a fire, the Omer Vanaudenhove Pavilion has reopened its doors after a complete transformation.
New identity, new name: PAVI'ON. Today, this venue embodies action, dynamism and openness, while remaining firmly rooted in the living memory of the European Quarter. Completely redesigned thanks to investment from the City of Brussels, this modern and welcoming space enriches the socio-cultural offering of Cinquantenaire Park, while also contributing to the preparations for the bicentenary of Belgian independence in 2030. The socio-cultural programme is organised by the City of Brussels' “Community centres” and aims to be eclectic, inclusive and intergenerational. 

As Denmark assumed the Presidency of the Council of the European Union in July, a powerful new artwork by internationally acclaimed artist collective SUPERFLEX has been unveiled on Esplanade Solidarność, in front of the European Parliament in Brussels. This collaboration between The Artists’ Parliament, Creator Projects and SUPERFLEX is a call to unity and dialogue in a time of conflict and polarisation. It takes the form of a sculptural swing set designed for three people, one that only functions when all participants move in sync.
