Hangar Festival is an electronic music festival happening on the last weekend of
April. During these two days, Hangar offers world-renowned artists the chance to
reconnect with their Belgian audiences in a breathtaking setting.
A show that's as musical as it is visual, an immersive scenography and a
production designed down to the last detail to make its customers feel at home.
Located on the outskirts of Brussels, the Hangar Festival is easily accessible
by public transport, bike or car, with parking available. It will welcome
approximately 4,000 people a day.
With the help of the Red Cross and Brussels-based prevention organizations, we
aim to make the Hangar Festival a place where festival-goers can feel safe,
meet, unite and share their passion for music.
Alongside this, participants can enjoy a tasty experience offered by the various
food trucks on site.
Description
********** English **********
(Pas si) Fragile! the Next Performance Art Generation is a biennial springboard for emerging artists working in performance art: Its formula modifies with each new iteration. 2024’s edition will unfold at Studio Thor, which has been running the project ever since 2020, at Les Halles de Schaerbeek and at La Balsamine.
As with previous iterations, (Pas si) Fragile! will feature a host of young artists who have recently graduated from Wallonia-Brussels’ visual arts schools. These institutions devote part of their curriculum to performance art, responding to the new dynamic generated by these practices within the professional artistic field.
This year its scope will differ somewhat, however, for this endeavour will be expanded to include the presentation of work by some fifteen young artists from right across Europe: Finland, Greece, Ireland, Poland and Slovenia.
In total, some thirty emerging artists will animate this intensive three-day programme, at the intersection of local practice here in Belgium and two projects featuring an international dimension, namely Performing Identity and Time For Live Art.

(Pas si) Fragile!, the Next Performance Art Generation est un tremplin biennal (24 > 26.04) , mettant en lumière de jeunes artistes impliqué·es dans l’art de la performance, avec une formule spécifique à chaque édition. La version 2024 se déroulera au Studio Thor, porteur du projet depuis 2020, aux Halles de Schaerbeek et à la Balsamine.
On y découvrira de jeunes artistes issu·es des écoles d’arts visuels de Wallonie-Bruxelles (La Cambre, erg, ISAC, Le 75, Beaux-Arts de Liège, Arts2, Académie de Tournai). Ces écoles consacrent en effet une partie de leur cursus à l’art performance, répondant ainsi à la dynamique nouvelle de ces pratiques dans le champ artistique professionnel.
En 2024, l’opération s’étendra à la présentation de travaux de jeunes artistes venu·es d’Europe : Finlande, Grèce, Irlande, Pologne et Slovénie. Au total, une trentaine de jeunes artistes composeront ce programme intensif de 3 jours, au croisement des pratiques d’ici et de 2 projets internationaux : « Performing Identity » et « Time For Live Art ».
