About the event

WHAT? Free Christmas dinner
WHEN?
22 December 2025 | 7PM, Brussels

A heartfelt gathering with food, music and stories – where every encounter carries the light and warmth of Christmas to all.

WHY?

Christmas is beautiful time for some, and a lonely one for many. Some people are far from home. Some have lost loved ones. Others are simply alone.
This evening is a moment for them.
Through shared meals, music, and art, we aim to create an evening where everyone feels welcomed — especially those who need it most during the holiday season.

Not a relief shelter, not a charity dinner. But a shared table, an open space, a temporary refuge, in the heart of the city. 

Who can join? 

Are you in Brussels and looking for a warm Christmas evening? No matter your age, status, income, beliefs or background, you are welcome. 

Want to bring someone along? – of course, bring a friend, a neighbor, a stranger. 

Note: This is a human gathering, not a humanitarian event.
