Cinemaximiliaan volunteers, Frank and Sahil are organising, an exciting bike-walking tour through Brussels with the theme “Newcomers in Brussels”. During this tour, we will reflect on some important places in the city that are connected to the lives of newcomers.

We will start the tour at The Hub, after which we will go via Maximiliaan Park to the North Station. We will then cycle along Leopold II Avenue to the canal, where we will stop just before the Klein Kasteeltje at a place where a tent camp was managed by newcomers for six months. We will end at Cinemaximiliaan.

DATE: SUNDAY 22ND SEPTEMBER 2024

TIME: 1:30 PM

STARTING LOCATION: Cafe Palto, departure 2 PM

DURATION: Approximately 3 hours 

STOP OFF for BRIDGE STORIES readings at 4PM – Meeting point on the bridge at Witte de Haelenstraat

It promises to be an inspiring and educational experience, during which we will gain insight into the challenges and stories of newcomers who consider Brussels as a temporary or new home base.
