Bruges Triennial 2024 came to an end

Sunday 01.09.2024 was the last day of Bruges Triennial 2024: Spaces of Possibility. For almost five months, TRIBRU24 took to the streets of the historic inner city and the beach of Zeebrugge with contemporary art and architecture installations. Over 400,000 people discovered (sometimes unknown) streets, parks and squares and looked at Bruges from a different perspective. A sincere thank you to all visitors, staff, volunteers, partners and sponsors.

See you in 2027 for the fifth edition of Bruges Triennial!

Spaces of Possibility

Spaces of Possibility searches for Bruges' potential by inviting (inter)national artists and architects to reinterpret the city's morphology. They focus on un(der)used places in Bruges, aiming to create new social, ecological and urban narratives.

TraumA

TraumA explores the subcutaneous space and subjective experience of the city, fed by the present and the past, dream and nightmare. This edition balances between what is present and what is hidden. Between the private and the public.

Liquid City | Vloeibare Stad

Liquid City | Vloeibare Stad links to the 2015 theme, which considered the city of Bruges as a megapolis. Only this edition goes one step further: how flexible, fluid and resilient can a historical city like Bruges be in a time in which nothing seems certain anymore?

Bruges Triennial 2015
Bruges as megapolis

Every year, more than five million people visit the city of Bruges. What if they didn’t want to leave and decided to stay? What if a protected historical city such as Bruges were to suddenly expand into a megapolis?
