The 17th edition of Les Goûts de Gand in and around the Saint Bavo Abbey

Les Goûts de Gand returns to the Macharius neighborhood once again. This year marks the 17th edition of the free music festival. In and around Coyendanspark, visitors of all ages can fully enjoy a diverse musical program!

Les Goûts de Gand invites you to discover the various flavors and sounds of Ghent in a unique culinary and musical setting. From charmingly delicate songs to lively party music at different locations, from cozy cafes to the impressive refectory of the Medieval Saint Bavo's Abbey.

At the Main Stage and in the Afro-Latin Area, you can enjoy alternative concerts and dance workshops.

In the Green Church, you can browse through a small but fine Feria Mundial (featuring products from Cape Verde, Bangladesh, Thailand, Ghana, and Ukraine), get to know the mobile 'Zwerfkeet' studio of the Graffiti organization, and enjoy delicious coffee & treats from Komaf Koffie in our Berber tent.  In that same tent, you can also enjoy poetry in various languages, brought by Amal and De Krook. Additionally, there is children's entertainment and a children's performance by Klein Festijn."

'Food and drinks' can be found near the Main Stage in Coyendanspark.

Enjoy an enchanting experience where the diversity of Ghent comes to life in an unforgettable fusion of flavors and sounds.
