moments between monuments

For our 10th anniversary, we’re putting Brussels in the spotlight. This year, we focus on the beating heart of the city: ‘la Grand Place’ and the entire surrounding UNESCO perimeter. In collaboration with The City Hall, we are launching an additional open call for photographers who want to capture the soul of this iconic part of Brussels.

‘La Grand Place’ is a place where history, tourism, commerce, nightlife, and everyday Brussels reality constantly intertwine. From the stately guild houses to the lively alleyways where languages and cultures intersect, from early morning deliveries to the nighttime glow of cafés and neon lights: this corner of Brussels lives 24/7.

We invite you to capture that life.
