What we’re about
Welcome to the Brussels Queer Connection !
Brussels Queer Connection aims at providing a space for LGBTQ+ people and their friends to create more authentic connections with others (and with themselves), through Social activities, events, drinks, Workshops, Yoga, book-clubs, classes, and more.
We want to create opportunities for people to meet in real life again, as opposed to living an Online experience only.
We are not a "dating service" - swiping left or right... The aim of our events is to create meaningful and authentic experiences with all kinds of people - based on common interests, interesting conversations and an exchange of experiences.
In addition to meeting other people - we also want to offer classes, workshops, seminars and retreats where Queer people and their friends can work on their own personal growth and well-being.
Everyone is welcome in the Brussels Queer Connection group - no matter their nationality, race, gender, sexual orientation, age, profession looks,....
It doesn't matter what your background is, just come as you are and connect with other friendly people.
With love,
The Organisers
