To enjoy this magical show, head to Espace Lumen in the heart of Ixelles, near Place Flagey. Take a seat in the auditorium as the dancers light up the stage and take you off to Neverland.
Ballet of Lights brings Peter Pan to Brussels

Get your eyes ready, because the luminous costumes are about to make them shine.
Peter Pan told in light, music and dance
The story of the children who fly off to an imaginary land to live an unparalleled adventure has all the qualities needed to be at the center of this dance show. Through magical choreography, the 6 dancers bring to life this passage to adulthood, where childhood imagination meets harsh reality. With their sparkling costumes serving as fairy dust, fly off to Neverland and reconnect with your childlike carefreeness and spontaneity.
Mendelssohn ‘s A Midsummer Night’s Dream , Brahms ‘Hungarian Dance no. 5 and Handel’s Sarabande accompany the dancers. And it’s when dance and music compliment each other that ballet is born.
Brussels is getting ready to welcome this luminous show to its sublime Espace Lumen, and all that’s missing is you to start the adventure. For one magical hour, Ballet of Lights takes you back to your childhood and lets you rediscover this classic dance form. And to make sure you have plenty of time to settle in, the doors open 30 minutes before the show begins.
