Horst Club shifts, expands and stretches. The 24-hour playground houses not one, but three different dance floors this season. All surrounded by plenty of room to roam with (off)spaces in between.
Rain Room is revamped by BURR, the Spanish powerhouse putting the play in our clubhouse. Think fluffy yellow curtains, a canonical canopy and puddly pond beneath the stars. This one’s for dreamy dancers!
Tucked away in a corner of the club premises, you’ll find the Garage. An intimate hidey-hole, stripped to the essentials and dedicated to the sound it supplies. Subtle scenography and detailed (sound)design form the essence of this tiny club room. Smaller, purer, simpler.
The Swirl makes its comeback as the warm hug designed by Jozef Wouters & touche—touche, after a profound acoustic upgrade. A festival-favourite of many, the spiral shaped floor still stands for dizzying spectacle.
Every weekend you will find a selection of performers emerging from the sea of dancers that roam around the Horst Club.
Constantly challenging the moving, snuggling or twisting bodies under its roof, the weekend performances will take place all over the Horst Club compound. Occurring in unconventional places at ungodly hours, they’ll range from either smooth and sensational to mind-bending movement. Think soaking wet club scenes and dropping pole-dancers in the middle of the rain room, all throughout the night and a day.
Opening Weekend: Leïla Alice, Jezebel, Sacca, Mauvaise Genre, Ellada Damianou w/ Mario B. Espinoza.
Gay Haze & Cocktail d'Amore: Temporary Pleasure.
The rule is simple: no empty bellies on the dancefloor during your stay. For that reason, the Horst Club Kitchen will open its doors multiple times over the 24-hours. Local heavyweights Bar Bâtard will take care of all things dinner keeping you up and running, and dish out party snack essentials to keep stamina up to speed. On Sunday morning the table will be set for the brunchies joining us fresh from their beds or after a rollercoaster first half on the dancefloor(s). And when our kitchen closes, you may want to look for our mystery place that takes care of all things energy, around the clock.
During the 24 hours, you can easily join and leave the weekend with the free bus transfers running to and from Vilvoorde Station and Brussel-Centraal.

At Horst we try to create a welcoming and warm environment for visitors, artists, crew… In order to accomplish this to the best of our capabilities, we want to make sure that our values are set clear for everyone.
• Kindness & respect is key: Assume good intentions. When in doubt of a situation, try to act out of understanding and compassion.
• Inclusivity as a fundament: You will encounter many diverse groups of people and be introduced to different personalities. We encourage you to learn other perspectives, embrace diversity and open your willingness to learn from it.
• Selfcare, best care: If you feel stressed out or disorientated or uneasy, we provide a quiet and stimulus-free space where you can rest and recharge.
• Take space, make space: Be mindful of other people’s limits, please be aware of personal boundaries and act in a consensual manner.
• Express/communicate consent: We hope to share responsibility when it comes to intervening in situations of transgressive behavior. If you see something you don’t believe is right, speak on it.
!yes = yes, no = no. Yes can become no!
