UR Buvette
Starting May 6, UR Square kicks off the summer season with the return of its Buvette in the heart of the former Ixelles barracks. This site in transition, managed by Wonder Meï ASBL, offers an eclectic program until September 20, including concerts, outdoor cinema, circular markets, and family activities. An inclusive and committed space, open to all Brussels residents, neighbors, and visitors.
Nestled within the emblematic former police barracks, UR Square reinvents itself this summer as a vibrant open-air living space. From May 6 to September 20, "La Place" becomes a socio-cultural, inclusive, and quintessentially Brussels gathering spot, managed by Wonder Meï ASBL. This temporary occupation project transforms the site into a daily experimental ground for neighbors, students, and visitors. A Melting Pot of Activities for All:
