Three days suspended in time—three days of humanity, warmth, music, and dance. Three days that reminded us how deeply we needed to come together, to dance, to celebrate. The curtain falls on an unforgettable edition of Couleur Café.

This is the culmination of a full year of commitment, passion, creativity, and love. Twelve months of collective effort, driven by a united team, hundreds of devoted volunteers, loyal partners, and artists who truly believe in what Couleur Café stands for: a festival that's far more than just a party.
You were 75,000 festivalgoers who made the Osseghem Park vibrate. 75,000 hearts beating in sync with the concerts, the soundsystems, the activities, and the spirit of togetherness.

The stages of Couleur Café echoed with performances from Little Simz, Denzel Curry, Nathy Peluso, Davido, Shenseea, Werrason, Omah Lay, Kokoroko, alongside the grace of Jalen Ngonda, the power of TIF, Dystinct, Mo’Kalamity, and the legendary Burning Spear and Groundation in the reggae scene, as well as Mala and Joe Yorke on the Dub Stage.

Belgium’s colors shone brightly too, with artists like Baloji, MAVEE, JAZMYN, Jazz Brak, Tawsen, Aili, DIKKE, Camille Yembe—and of course, Niveau4, our flagship project that once again brought together the best talents for an exceptionally intense show.

Meanwhile, the Black Stage was setting the crowd on fire with Heaven Sam, Rosa Pistola, Zack Fox, Nooriyah, and a lineup of gifted DJs. From baile funk to amapiano, afro-house, reggaeton, and electro, the rhythms pulsed through the park until nightfall. Over on the Dub Stage, 19 passionate artists lifted the festivalgoers from the ground all the way to the stars.

And all around the park, life was buzzing and beating with energy. The Tieks area ignited with fierce lucha libre battles, La Plancha heated up with dance moves, while the Trashbar sent crowds into a joyful frenzy. Nearby, La Piste unfolded its quirky universe, Bezoek Médicale sprinkled surprises, Tenderdome’s gentle battles brought smiles, and Brolenbeek opened the doors to a vibrant, creative world. Every corner of the park held its own celebration, its own universe.

And more than anything, there’s you.

Your generosity is the reason Couleur Café was, is and always will be a one-of-a-kind gathering of kindred souls. Not only by being the magnificent, caring lot you are, but also quite literally. Thanks to you, €35,000 was raised for Compassionate Hearts for Palestine through the many initiatives carried out this year. Thank you for putting your heart—and your feet—into the dance.

Thank you all. Thank you for making Couleur Café what it is: a unique space where music, diversity, celebration, and humanity come together as one.

We’ll see you again next year, June 26, 27, and 28, 2026, with hearts just as wide open.  

In the meantime, we wish you a wonderful summer! We’ll be back very soon on our socials to relive the best moments of this edition together, in photos and through our aftermovie.
