Haus Brussels 2026

Haus is a pop-up funhouse party in Brussels, where you can be your unapologetic self, held during special holidays and long weekends.

  • Are you visiting Brussels? Stay at The NH Collection Brussels Centre,  featuring spacious, elegant rooms, a modern gym and a perfect location, close to the gay bars and the city's top attractions.

The Party

  • Next Edition: Awaiting dates, theme and lineup.
  • Haus Brussels bills itself as a Queer inclusive party, attracting the bold, the beautiful, and everyone in between.
  • It is a welcome addition to the Brussels gay scene and should not be missed if your trip coincides with one of their theme nights.
  • The party takes over Bad Habits on 52 Rue des Chartreux / Kartuizerstraat, an 8-minute walk from the Saint Jacques district, home to the city's bustling gay neighbourhood.
  • Haus brings the hottest guys and their friends to the party with guest DJs, sexy hosts and surprise acts.
  • Stay just steps from the club at Hotel Saint-Géry, a boutique hotel with eclectically styled rooms and delicious breakfast options.

The Venue

  • HAUS/ Bad Habits on 52 Rue des Chartreux, a Gay nightclub in the city centre with great light and sound.
  • The vibe is gritty but curated—brick walls, deep booths, good bass.
  • It’s small, sweaty, and intimate—less about the scene, more about the night. Drinks aren’t fancy, but they’re poured like they mean it. Crowd’s mixed, friendly, a bit wild after midnight.
  • Transformed by Haus into a party zone that will exceed your expectations.
  • Cash or card works. Don’t show up too early—this place gets going late and runs later.
