At Brussels' Festival of Ideas we come together to address the issues that keep us up at night, with fresh thinking and new ways of seeing old problems. We bring together those who care about the future in a community of thought and action. 3-days that nourish mind, body and soul. One different theme each year. This year we are exploring ' Connection', and what it means to live together in a world that feels like we're drifting apart. We live in the most connected age in human history. Our climates are entangled, our histories are shared, our devices link us to millions, and yet, somehow, we feel disconnected from each other and disempowered by what happens around us. The world is shifting beneath our feet. The ties that once held us together feel loose. What does it mean to be truly connected? The festival offers an answer in progress. Bringing together thinkers from around the world, we explore connection in all its forms — between people, between disciplines, between the local and the global, between the human and…the bot! Through talks, conversations, deep listening and quiet contemplation, performances and shared meals we will think hard about what actually holds us together, and what is quietly pulling us apart. What to expect? Thought provoking Talks. Strikingly simple but powerful conversations. Fresh perspectives, thoughtful people, a sense of community. Not forgetting live music, art show, creative writing, poetry, news commentary, gong bath - and with delicious food & drink available all weekend. Check the festival programme for more info. Weekend Pass and One Day passes are available. Open to all. Single events from 10-40€ | Day pass from 15-50€ | Festival weekend pass from 45-100€ Free to those who can't afford it.
