Best time to visit Belgium

Belgium enjoys four seasons all year round. Summers (June-August) are mildly warm with low rainfall. The southern region of Wallonia experiences slightly warmer temperatures than the northern Flanders area. Be aware that July and August see a surge in tourist numbers, especially in popular cities like Brugge and Antwerp. The frosty winters (November-February) can be pretty with iced canals and festive Christmas cheer, but be sure to pack in those beanies and jackets! Be aware that attractions near the Ardennes may close down during the heavy winter rains and snowfall. For low-season rates and fewer crowds, Belgium is at its best in spring (March-May) and autumn (September-October) when the city is in full bloom with outdoor festivals and concerts. Some not-to-be-missed festivals include the Belgian Beer Festival in September, Spa Ferrari Festival in April and Bastille Day in July.
