Horst Arts & Music Festival 2026

Upside down, inside out, and full of wild wonder: Horst Arts & Music Festival 2026 blooms between the cracks. From 14th to 16th May, we're diving deep into the hidden potential of our home, instead of crossing the water just yet. 

What if the untapped potential didn't lie ahead of us, but rather within? What if the room we sought was the sky and the extra space we longed for beneath the ground? What if upside down is the right way up? These questions will mark three festival days, a new Horst Expo, and prove to be the kick-off for the Horst Summer program at Asiat Park.

The home of the festival - Asiat Park - is the former Arsenal of Instruments and Equipment for Telecommunication, which operated from 1946 to 2008. The terrain housed soldiers who were responsible for the production of military telecommunication components. Over time, Asiat Park's vast warehouses, efficient barracks, and spacious driving courts have been taken over by nature.

Since 2022, Horst has been the cultural catalyst of the site, reshaping its landscape and regenerating its buildings in partnership with the City of Vilvoorde. This fruitful, longer-term collaboration has stimulated the development of Asiat Park.
