Opening 11 June, “Jules Verne 200” transforms Brussels’ Horta Gallery into a 1,500 m² playground where VR, metaverse realms and 360-degree projections bring Verne’s greatest hits to life. Beyond the novels, visitors can trace the writer’s journey from Nantes to Paris and Amiens via archival engravings and audiovisual excerpts. Conceived by Exhibition Hub and Layers of Reality, the spectacle follows their successful “Van Gogh Immersive” world tour.

When the cosmos calls you back to Earth, retreat to Hygge Hotel. The boutique property’s clean lines, wool throws and crackling lobby fireplace evoke quintessential Scandinavian comfort. A fifteen-minute amble from Horta Gallery, Hygge’s organic Nordic breakfast and calming ambience ensure you recharge in style for another day in the Belgian capital.
