On Sunday 4 May, UCLouvain made its mark with its very first participation in the Fête de l'Iris (the major festive event of the Brussels-Capital Region). And what a day!

? All afternoon, our scientific, cultural and sports stands animated the Royal Park in a joyful and family atmosphere. The public (numerous, curious, enthusiastic) praised the richness of the activities: interactive experiences, creative workshops, observation games, blind tests, health prevention, sports activities... and much more!

? The objective was to affirm UCLouvain's presence in Brussels, to promote its talents and its spirit of openness. The feedback from the public and Visit Brussels is unanimous: it was a success... and a great starting point for the future!

See you in 2026 for an even more creative, inclusive and festive edition! ?
