Far-right demonstrators to gather in Brussels on September 27; avoid any protest site as a precaution

Warning

Event

The Flemish far-right party Vlaams Belang have planned a drive-in protest in the capital Brussels on Sunday, September 27, to protest their alleged exclusion from the new federal government and demanding fresh elections. Demonstrators from around the country will reportedly drive through the city, including Rue de la Loi, before gathering at 11:00 (local time) at Palace de Heysel.

A heightened security presence and associated disruptions should be anticipated at all protests.

Advice

Those in Brussels are advised to avoid any protests as a precaution, monitor the situation, allow ample travel time, and obey instructions issued by local authorities.
