Architect Joseph Diongre gave the complex its characteristic shape of a stately packet boat, a concept that impressed internationally thanks to its innovative architecture, exceptional functionality, and groundbreaking acoustics.<\/p>\n<p>Today, we know the building as Flagey, a vibrant cultural hub. It houses not only concert halls, studios, and meeting spaces, but also an active radio and TV station that keeps the building\u2019s original purpose alive. The fact that Flagey still stands is remarkable: at the end of the 20th century, due to its lamentable condition, demolition was proposed. Thanks to strong public mobilization followed by restoration, it is now a recognizable, protected, and beloved city icon that we can admire today.<\/p>\n<p>During the tour, you will discover the hidden world behind the rounded fa\u00e7ades: the original recording studios, technical rooms, and the impressive engine room. This offers a unique glimpse into a modernist masterpiece that not only breathes history but continues to play a role in Brussels\u2019 cultural landscape every day.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Purchased tickets can be refunded up to a maximum of 15 calendar days before the event.<\/li>\n<li>A \u20ac2 administration fee per ticket will be charged for refunds.<\/li>\n<li>Tickets may be transferred to others.<\/li>\n<li>Please show your ticket spontaneously to the guide upon arrival.<\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/staging.korei.be\/hoe-reserveren\/\">All sales conditions apply<\/a>.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Architecture and acoustics in harmony The iconic radio building on the ever-bustling Flagey Square was erected between 1935 and 1938 as a pioneering \u201csound factory\u201d for the National Institute for&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":54379,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","template":"","meta":{"_kad_blocks_custom_css":"","_kad_blocks_head_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_body_custom_js":"","_kad_blocks_footer_custom_js":"","_price":"","_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_header":"","_tribe_default_ticket_provider":"Tribe__Tickets_Plus__Commerce__WooCommerce__Main","_tribe_ticket_capacity":"","_ticket_start_date":"","_ticket_end_date":"","_tribe_ticket_show_description":"","_tribe_ticket_show_not_going":false,"_tribe_ticket_use_global_stock":"","_tribe_ticket_global_stock_level":"","_global_stock_mode":"","_global_stock_cap":"","_tribe_rsvp_for_event":"","_tribe_ticket_going_count":"","_tribe_ticket_not_going_count":"","_tribe_tickets_list":"[{\"id\":55275,\"type\":\"default\",\"title\":\"Interior: Packet boat and sound factory: the Flagey building - group 2 (EN)\",\"description\":\"Ticket for guided tour and entrance.\\r\\nMeeting point: Place Flagey 18 in Ixelles.\",\"capacityType\":\"own\",\"price\":19,\"capacity\":20,\"available\":8,\"sharedCapacity\":20,\"sold\":12,\"shareSold\":12,\"isShared\":false,\"currencyDecimalPoint\":\",\",\"currencyNumberOfDecimals\":2,\"currencyPosition\":\"prefix\",\"currencySymbol\":\"$\",\"currencyThousandsSep\":\" \"}]","_tribe_ticket_has_attendee_info_fields":false,"_kadence_starter_templates_imported_post":false,"_kad_post_transparent":"","_kad_post_title":"","_kad_post_layout":"","_kad_post_sidebar_id":"","_kad_post_content_style":"","_kad_post_vertical_padding":"","_kad_post_feature":"","_kad_post_feature_position":"","_kad_post_header":false,"_kad_post_footer":false,"_tribe_events_status":"","_tribe_events_status_reason":"","_tribe_events_is_hybrid":"","_tribe_events_is_virtual":"","_tribe_events_virtual_video_source":"","_tribe_events_virtual_embed_video":"","_tribe_events_virtual_linked_button_text":"","_tribe_events_virtual_linked_button":"","_tribe_events_virtual_show_embed_at":"","_tribe_events_virtual_show_embed_to":[],"_tribe_events_virtual_show_on_event":"","_tribe_events_virtual_show_on_views":"","_tribe_events_virtual_url":"","footnotes":"","_tec_slr_enabled":"","_tec_slr_layout":""},"tags":[],"tribe_events_cat":[],"class_list":["post-55274","tribe_events","type-tribe_events","status-publish","has-post-thumbnail","hentry"],"taxonomy_info":[],"featured_image_src_large":["https:\/\/staging.korei.be\/app\/uploads\/2025\/12\/Etangs_d_Ixelles_-_Vijvers_van_Elsene_-_Flagey__JPR9070_\u00a9_visit.brussels_--1024x684.jpg",1024,684,true],"author_info":{"display_name":"Korei","author_link":"https:\/\/staging.korei.be\/en\/author\/admin\/"},"comment_info":0,"ticketed":["woo"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.korei.be\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/55274","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.korei.be\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.korei.be\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/tribe_events"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.korei.be\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.korei.be\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=55274"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/staging.korei.be\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/55274\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":55276,"href":"https:\/\/staging.korei.be\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events\/55274\/revisions\/55276"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.korei.be\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/54379"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/staging.korei.be\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=55274"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.korei.be\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=55274"},{"taxonomy":"tribe_events_cat","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/staging.korei.be\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tribe_events_cat?post=55274"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
