Belgium has the honour of having a young but strong and
creative jazz scene.To motivate the continuation and growth of this specific
culture, jazz clubs and bars arose in Belgium. By giving jazz artists
a place to bring their music live, the clubs are able to entertain their
visitors in a way that is unique. Visiting a jazz club is indulging yourself
in an atmosphere of wooden interiors, relaxing music and mysterious lightning.
