Ghent's magnificent canals inspired Flanders Festival to devise an open-air happening. Now in its fourth edition, it is safe to say that this event has become a tradition and one of the staples of Ghent's culture scene.
On the water, above the water, alongside the water-there will be music and art everywhere. Together with major stars of the world music, classical and jazz scenes, Flanders Festival and scores of Ghent-based cultural partners will treat you to an awe-inspiring journey along historic buildings on the Leie, Lieve, Ketelvaart and the Scheldt.
Music from all over the world along Ghent's quays: let OdeGand immerse you in folk songs, fiery flamenco, fast tango, delightful classical music, intimate baroque music, plastic art highlights, musical acrobatics, and much more. OdeGand is also a family event: admission to the OdeGand concerts as well as the boat fares are free for children and youngsters of up to 14 years. In the evening, Graslei and Korenlei will once again play host to a magic closing concert and a magnificent bonfire.
Be careffull and book your place...
