'Les fêtes de Wallonie', a big event where traditional culture meets concerts and parties. The whole town is closed to the cars for three days in September.
Partying... drinking some belgian specialities such as beers or even a good 'pequet', an alcohol of the area. Don't forget to participate at the 'road of the pequet'... try a new pequet each time you stop.
Also go see the '40 mollons', a traditional group of musicians and the contest for the guy who will say the hugest lies.... Tradition vs Party
Dress Code: As you like... but look at the weather, most of the activities are outside !
