Traveler reviews
Paul van den Berg
★★★★★3 years agoMay 2023 Visited the Antwerpen Proeft (May 18-21 - 2023) fair. Restaurants from the (greater) Antwerp region cooked 2 till 4 dishes, supported by wine, champagne, beer and mocktail / cocktail offerings. Michelin star restaurants, small restaurant, patissiers, chocolatiers a wide range of well chosen complementary venues all in one place. This place next to the water was-is an excellent choice for a fair like this. The only suggestion I would make is an entrance on the other side as well, saves a lot of walking for a lot of people ... Other than that ... No remarks. Good place for fairs like these .... Loved it.

★★★★★5 years agoI have been to many Waagnatie events and exhibitions before and every single one of them were great! The old hangars has offer huge spacious halls and make all events special. Last event I have been to was the Van Gogh exhibition, Waagnatie was the perfect setting for this!
