Four-Star New Year in Brussels

Treat yourself to chocolate, beer or mussels (all famous in Belgium!) as we count down to the New Year. When it arrives, a spectacular firework display lights up the skies over the Atomium!

Bring in the New Year in one of the most beautiful city break destinations. New Year is when Brussels really lights up with fireworks, live music and other excited New Year's revellers. Not only will you see the amazing New Year display, but of course experience their specialities of chocolate, beer, mussels and all that's brilliant about Belgium.

When the spectacular firework display lights up the skies over the magnificent Esplanade of the Atomium, you will know you made the right choice in making Brussels your New Year's destination. Brussels also offers so much to do during the daytime: marvel at the stunning architecture, experience the shopping in the fashion district, sample their speciality Belgian beer and savour the delicious handmade chocolates. Plus make a visit to the atmospheric Winter Wonders festival and its 200 festive stalls.

On day three, we offer an optional excursion to the attractive port of Antwerp. Historically famous as the diamond capital of the world, it is now well known for its fashion academy and influences in Avant-Garde. It is believed that the natives of Antwerp are the happiest people on earth, so you won’t be short of a warm welcome there!

Finally, on the last day, we visit the medieval city of Bruges - known as the 'Venice of the North' because of its network of picturesque canals and bridges. Don’t forget your cameras here, it really is a picture postcard place!
