Théâtre de Vaudeville

Support :

The project to audit and certify 12 VENUES infrastructures was made possible by the valuable support of :

           

Please note :
This certification only concerns the building and not future events that may take place in it.
During events, the layout of the premises may change, resulting in a change in accessibility. The responsibility for this change would then lie with the event organiser.
Furthermore, the certification visit only concerned the public part of the building and not the rented parts.

Description of the VENUE :

A place steeped in history. The Théâtre du Vaudeville is a mythical place classified as a historical monument. It was inaugurated in 1884 and is still very much alive in the collective memory. A recent renovation has restored it to its former glory.

This theatre offers a multi-purpose space in a period setting with modernity and current techniques. A system of sliding seats under the stage offers the possibility of arranging the parterre: seated dinner, catwalk parade...

Its location in the heart of the Queen's Gallery makes it a highly sought-after and historic place, in the heart of the city not far from the Grand Place. Charming guest rooms adjoining the Theatre allow you to complete a successful event in beautiful surroundings...
