Get out the napkins because La Monnaie is participating in The Biggest Spaghetti Fest in the World! On Saturday, November 23, at 12:30 p.m., we are offering 75 vegetarian meals, accompanied by a visit to our Workshops, in support of non-profit organisation Accolage.
Once again this year, Brussel Helpt is organizing a food festival that stretches all over the capital. All proceeds will go to Accolage, a Brussels-based non-profit organization that sets up neighborhood aid networks in the fight against loneliness. La Monnaie is happy to support this initiative, offering 75 plates of vegetarian spaghetti for €10. They will be served by the culinary talents of our caterer Groot Eiland, who works with local, seasonal products.
Nice bonus: we offer every person who orders a spaghetti at La Monnaie a free tour of our Workshops, in Dutch, French or English.
Carpooling to La Monnaie with other opera lovers? Besides being more sustainable, it’s nicer and cheaper than going alone! La Monnaie is the first cultural venue in Belgium to join forces with Slinger, a simple tool which allows you to arrange a ride with another spectator from your area in just a few clicks.
In September and October, La Monnaie opens its doors for these two prestigious events, which showcase the heritage of Brussels in the firm belief that it’s essential to understand the city’s past in order to shape its future.
On Sunday, September 1st, the third season of ‘Aria’ started on the Dutch television channel NPO1. In this talent show for young opera singers, a notable contestant graced the stage: MM Soloist Leander Carlier.
