A unique and authentic hunt: the perfect pairing of beer and chocolate
In the heart of the majestic Brussels Stock Exchange, Belgian Beer World transforms its classic tasting into a rare epicurean experience. For this Easter weekend, April 4–6, forget the traditional eggs: here, cocoa bends to the rules of beer culture. In collaboration with the country’s leading chocolatiers, artisanal chocolate capsules have been specially crafted to pair with a selection of characterful beers. An exquisite pairing where the bitterness of the hops meets the richness of the chocolate for an explosion of flavors.
The highlight of this festive weekend takes place on Sunday, April 5, with the return of the Beer Caps Hunt, where five beer caps will be hidden along the site’s interactive trail. Once the mission is complete, head to the rooftop to spin the wheel of fortune! With exclusive goodies and tastings overlooking the capital’s rooftops, this urban treasure hunt offers a fun and memorable immersion in this mecca of Brussels heritage.
The Spirit of Ixelles: Extending the Magic of Easter into the Heart of Spring
After the energy of the Bourse, the celebration continues just a stone’s throw away in the livelyIxelles neighborhood. During this Easter weekend, the city invites you on a contemplative stroll where Art Nouveau facades come to life under the spring sun. It’s the perfect setting to savor the flavors of Belgian Beer World while admiring the capital’s hidden treasures—from the spring to the ponds—and soaking in the legendary works of local masters like Victor Horta.
But Ixelles isn’t the only setting celebrating the return of sunny days. Throughout the city, Brussels is hosting a variety of events for residents and visitors alike. While the Beer Caps Hunt is aimed at explorers of the Stock Exchange, other more traditional egg hunts are taking over the capital, from the Comic Strip Museum to Tour & Taxis. With its blend of culture, architectural heritage, and culinary delights, Brussels stands out as an unmissable destination for an unforgettable Easter weekend.
