SPECIAL EVENTS AND EASE OF ACCESSIBILITY GO HAND-IN-HAND IN BRUSSELS
PLANNING YOUR EVENT WITH NO WORRY ABOUT ACCESSIBILITY
All meeting planners are concerned with urban mobility: Fortunately, Brussels has an excellent transport infrastructure and organizers can offer their delegates a variety of options for moving easily, rapidly and in a sustainable way around the city and to their event’s destination.
Urban accessibility is key to Brussels’ business life: Intelligent transportation systems have been set up with an emphasis on cycling, walking, public transport and ‘clean’ cars. But which of these will work best for your guests attending your next event in Brussels?

GETTING AROUND BRUSSELS FOR YOUR EVENT PARTICIPANTS
Metro, trams, and buses are the most efficient transport solution for getting around the city and Brussels Special Venues speedily and cheaply. Our city prioritizes urban sustainability, and it prides itself on its reputation for caring, ecological viability, and customized, cost-effective transport. So, why not offer the Brussels Intercommunal Transport Company (STIB) transportation passes to your delegates?
Cycling is another option in the philosophy of sustainable transport. It offers another convenient way of getting through Brussels and your delegates may well prefer this alternative:Brussels is rapidly adjusting itself to accommodate bicycle traffic. More and more people—be they smartly dressed businessmen and businesswomen, or students or pensioners —have adopted this form of city transport. The city’s Villo! network is an ever-growing bicycle hiring service, with stands throughout the city.
