On Sunday 25 May 2025, the 45th edition of the Brussels 20 km race will take place. This event has brought together thousands of runners and walkers since 1980 at the Esplanade of Jubelpark and has become a fixture on the Brussels calendar. This year VIAGE is also taking part, in support of TADA.
Our goal is not only to reach the finish line but, above all, to give young people from vulnerable backgrounds a nudge in the right direction, together with TADA. This partnership is no coincidence but a conscious choice that fits in with our broader social commitment.
TADA
This Brussels-based non-profit has spent years empowering young people from socially disadvantaged environments. Through a weekend school and its alumni network, TADA introduces youths to broader society, and specifically to their own potential. They meet passionate professionals and discover professions they might otherwise never be introduced to, offering them fresh perspectives. It’s all about building confidence, expanding knowledge and opening doors. Their approach is long-term, inclusive and sustainable – values we fully embrace.
More than just entertainment
VIAGE is about so much more than just entertainment. Right in the heart of Brussels, we work every day to create a space that connects, supports and welcomes. This social commitment goes beyond mere words. In the past we’ve taken part in the Race for the Cure® in collaboration with Think Pink and contributed to World Clean Up Day. We play an active role in helping to shape a more sustainable society because we believe every company has a role when it comes to strengthening the city it calls home.
Our commitment hasn’t gone unnoticed. We were the first Belgian casino to obtain certification within the Responsible Gambling Framework of the European Casino Association, setting a new standard in terms of responsible gaming. We’re also the first casino worldwide to be awarded the Queer Destinations Committed label, a clear signal that everyone is welcome here regardless of sexual orientation, gender identity or expression. VIAGE strives to be a safe, inclusive and welcoming space for guests and colleagues alike.
A step forward
Our partnership with TADA for this year’s Brussels 20 km race is perfectly aligned with this broader mission. By literally stepping into the stories of young people striving for a better future, VIAGE demonstrates what it means for an organisation to be present in the city: visible, engaged and always moving forward. Because every step we take brings us closer to more connection, more opportunities and more equality.
