HI NEIGHBORS!
Here’s what’s buzzing in Antwerp this weekend.
📢 THE WALL
Got something to share with the hive? This is your mic.
Feature your business, a job opening, an event, life update, or just say hi.
Antwerp just got a new afterwork concept.
It’s called Clock Out Club.
Here’s the breakdown:
Good people → no stiff networking, just authentic vibes.
Great venues → from hidden gems to iconic locations.
Atmosphere first → music, food, and energy at the center.
The first edition is happening at Wolf Food Market, in Felix Parkhuis on Friday, Sept 26 (5pm-11pm).
If you’re tired of “meh” Fridays, this is where you start your weekend.

📌 THE LISTINGS
🗺️ Activity of the Week
👨👩👧👦 Reuzenstoet 313
The Reuzenstoet is the big traditional giants’ parade of Borgerhout. Think giant dancing puppets (“Reuskens”), music, crowds, a community celebration.
It’s an event for everyone, but you know the kids will love the spectacle which is why it’s the family-friendly activity of the week.
⏰Saturday 27th, 11am-5pm
📍Check route in programme
🏡House of the Week
Ballaarstraat 13
2018
In the Markgrave district, this 230 m² townhouse is a rare city oasis. The renovation balances authentic charm with modern luxury: warm parquet floors, full-height windows, mozaïc tiles, a custom kitchen, spa-style bathrooms, and a lush garden with a natural stone “swim-kom.” With 3 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, and EPC A, it’s the kind of place you might not buy tomorrow, but one that’s worth a peek just to see what city living at its finest feels like. Asking price: €1,590,000.
🍷Your Weekly Date Spot
Hofstraat 9, 2000
Bracc
Start the night with refined brasserie classics at Bracc, then slide over to Bar Lucy for cocktails and concerts in an intimate setting. It’s dinner, drinks, and music all in one courtyard. The stylish interior and cozy patio make it feel like a little escape right in the heart of Antwerp.
