legendary belgian dance halls










From top to bottom:

2x Boccaccio in Destelbergen. Founded in 1963 as a party hall. One year later a jukebox was added and the first dancing was born. It was a diamond shaped venue which was crowded with people from all over Europe wanting to hear this new kind of music: New Beat.


2x Mega House Tempel Barocci in the early 90s. Along the Meirseweg in Zundert.


Carré in the early 90s. Along the A12 highway in Willebroek. Built from the remains of the temporary 'Côte d'Or' pavilion for World Expo 58 in Brussels.
