Brussels Museums celebrates its 30th anniversary!

Emilia Van Roy

Our non-profit turns 30 this September. The federation was founded in 1995 on the initiative of 45 museums. Today, there are 125 museums, which more than ever reflect the richness, diversity and, above all, the vitality of the capital’s museums. The Nocturnes, the Brussels Card, Museum Night Fever, the Art Nouveau Pass, Open Museum mark this long journey.

30 years, that’s something to celebrate! On 25 September, Manneken Pis will therefore be given a new costume, donated by Brussels Museums and designed by Matteo Neri-Lindfors. A costume he will proudly wear on 18 May, International Museum Day. 

Make a donation through our crowdfunding platform and help bring the new costume to life!

All donors will receive a personal invitation to the official dressing ceremony on Thursday 25 September 2025.

Gift Manneken Pis a brand new outfit!
