The program
The festivities start on Friday 25 April. Enter a time capsule of fun with an exclusive photo booth and retro arcade games in the CINNA Bar. Revisit the glory days of the video arcades and capture your most festive moments in a unique decor. The entertainment continues all weekend long.
On top of this, you also stand a chance of taking home a limited edition “VIAGE for the Future” skateboard - an absolute must-have for collectors and lovers of exclusive gadgets. The competition rules will be posted here soon.
On Saturday 26 April we’re kicking things up another notch. Welcome onto the stage the Belgian 80s cover band Radio Spandex, whose iconic outfits and energetic performances breathe new life into the biggest hits of that legendary decade. Expect a show chock-full of glitter, power ballads and up-tempo anthems that will get everyone moving.
In addition, The Retronettes will deliver a beguiling mix of song, dance and cabaret fully in line with the retro-futuristic theme. These consummate entertainers bring style, glamour and a generous dose of humour to the stage. Let yourself be transported to another world.
The evening is hosted by none other than DJ McFly (Oberon) whose beats will take you on a journey back in time and... Back to the Future! As if this isn’t spectacular enough, we’ve also invited Lieselotte Diels to ramp up the sensation factor even further. Surely you remember this world-class acrobat from her unique archery act in Belgium’s Got Talent. Now you get to see her antics live with two spectacular, breathtaking acts.
Birthday night
Over the weekend we’re pulling out all the stops. On Friday 25 April we’re planning an evening full of surprises. Is your birthday in April, just like VIAGE’s? Then drop by to celebrate with us. We’re treating all the birthday boys and girls to a free and exclusive birthday buffet*! While you’re spoiling your taste buds with our scrumptious dishes, DJ Jay Psar will provide a rousing soundtrack that’s guaranteed to tempt you onto the dance floor.
And that’s just for starters. Dancers and entertainers will bring the futuristic atmosphere to life. Obviously Thursday’s entertainment continues, supplemented with a neon tattoo station.
ABBA dinner show
On the 26th of April, we invite you to have the ‘time of your life’ in our theatre THE VIAGE. Let the dinner show THE TIME OF YOUR LIFE carry you back to the biggest hits of the ultimate pop idols, ABBA. The Belgian tribute band ABBA4U guarantees an evening you’ll never forget with hits galore, top entertainment and an insane atmosphere.
On top of this, the amazing team of Strange People will teach the participants an authentic ABBA choreography. Meanwhile you are free to savour a selection of dishes that fit in seamlessly with the disco theme, without losing sight of the refinement of a true gastronomic meal. The culinary collective MELA, helmed by Sebastien Mattagne and Yves Mattagne, a chef with two Michelin stars and more than 34 years of experience, will be crafting this meal. We also have chef Basile Huvelle, who was trained by Yves Mattagne himself, to stir the pots.
Book your tickets for this unique event via Stage Magic.
