Summer in Antwerp: a swimming dock and 74 days of festival

Zomer van Antwerpen ran for 74 days in 2026, and much of it was free. Here is what actually runs in Antwerp in July and August, from a swimming dock by the MAS to the Bollekesfeest.

De Koninck still pours the Bolleke in Antwerp, but brews it in Breendonk

De Koninck brewed in Antwerp from 1833 until 2025. The Bolleke now comes from Duvel Moortgat’s brewery in Breendonk; the tours, the butcher, the cheese and the chocolate stayed on the Mechelsesteenweg.
