Moomin Parade side events at Pavi'ON

The Moomin Parade will be organised for the second time around the European

quarters, following last year’s success. The event includes various program in the

park of Square Ambiorix and a festive parade led through Rue Archimede and

around the European Commission (see full program of the day at

www.moominparade.eu).

This year, there will be additional program at the Pavi’ON at Parc Cinquantenaire.

Pavi’On is a social and cultural center in the European Quarter’s iconic Parc du Cinquantenaire. The venue offers eclectic, inclusive, and intergenerational activities, bringing fresh energy while embodying openness and dynamism. Its programming is enriched by initiatives from local associations and resident‑led projects, valuable partners in its development. Pavi’On is managed by Maisons de Quartier/Buurthuizen of Brussels.
