It’s the focal point of the Lower Town, surrounded by guild houses in the Flemish renaissance style, and it’s pretty magnificent. However, if you start planning you will see something that happens every other year: the Tapis de Fleurs (flower carpet). For 5 days in August the Grand Place is taken over by a massive floral display. Son et Lumiere shows complete the spectacle every night. The next will be in 2008. Worth booking especially as the Brussels summer music festival runs from the 11th to the 20th.each year and this includes 130 free concerts and entertainment throughout the city.
