Go crazy in Brussels as La Demence celebrates 35 years.

You read that right, La Demence has been pounding out the beats for 35 years and there's no better time to celebrate this iconic queer party than the spooky yet sexy season of Halloween.

Brussels is a city that goes hard for Halloween and La Demence is serving up four nights of sweaty dance-floor action - bringing together around 10,000 men from across Europe.

  • Thursday, 31Oct: Opening party at Fuse
  • Friday, 1Nov: Anniversary party at Fuse
  • Saturday, 2Nov: Main party at ING Arena
  • Sunday, 3Nov: Closing party at Fuse

First job is to get your tickets - the nights at Fuse are quick to sell out.

Brussels Volume Pass

Make the most of your visit to Brussels with the city's Volume Pass - unlocking the nightlife of Europe's capital.

The pass gives you access to the biggest clubs in Brussels, with queue-jump so you can maximise your time on the dance-floor.

The participating clubs include:

  • Mirano: A majestic and legendary club, formerly a cinema, that hosts hip-hop,
    afro, and Latin nights.
  • Spirito: A former church converted into a nightclub. An exceptional setting for
    an equally exceptional experience.
  • Fuse: Brussels’ iconic techno temple.
  • C12: A club with a sharp, underground programme.
  • Ginette: The Friday hotspot for wild nights of pop and French variety.
  • Dukes: An eclectic programme mixing afro, hip-hop, and RnB.
  • Jalousy: A small club offering a fine blend of tasty cocktails and a well-paced
    electro basement.

An added bonus of the Volume Pass is that it also gives you access to a range of cultural attractions, including the Atomium, the Design Museum, and the museums run by the City of Brussels such as the Centrale for Contemporary
Art.

The participating cultural institutions include:

  • The Atomium: An architectural marvel from the 1958 World's Fair, with
    panoramic views and original exhibitions.
  • The Design Museum Brussels: A unique collection dedicated to contemporary
    design.
  • The Fashion & Lace Museum: A journey through the history of fashion and
    textiles.
  • The GardeRobe MannekenPis: The many outfits of Brussels' most famous
    son.
  • The Sewer Museum: An exploration of Brussels' underbelly. A quirky and
    fascinating visit.
  • The Centrale for Contemporary Art: Exhibitions of confirmed and emerging
    contemporary artists, reopening on 9 October.

The Brussels Volume Pass is available online, at visit.brussels’ welcome offices,
and at certain partner hotels.
