What is Gentse Feesten?
Gentse Feesten is one of Europe's largest cultural festivals — ten days of music, theatre, street performance, and food filling the historic heart of Ghent, Belgium. It began in 1843 as a city-organized community celebration and grew over generations into a massive, joyful summer institution. Despite wartime interruptions, it has always returned stronger.
