Summer concerts 2026

During the summer months, from June 1st to September 14th, various carillonneurs will treat you to a heavenly concert every Monday evening at 8:30 PM. This season also features several designated listening areas.

Not only the carillon of the St. Rumbold's Tower, but also those of the Church of Our Lady-across-the-Dyle and the chamber carillon in the Sinte-Mette Garden will take turns echoing their melodies across the city.

Listening Locations

Each of the three carillons offers a comfortable listening area with plenty of seating:

St. Rumbold’s Tower Carillon: TBD
Church of Our Lady-across-the-Dyle Carillon: Courtyard of the Milsenhof (Onze-Lieve-Vrouwkerkhof 11), including a live visual display.
Chamber Carillon in the Sinte-Mette Garden: This green courtyard is located between Bruul 52, Lange Schipstraat 25, and Schaalstraat 21.

Admission is free. Prefer to watch from the comfort of your own home? You can follow the summer carillon concerts via livestream every Monday evening.
