Beauville is back on 4th and 5th July 2026 with a concept that feels as refined as it is distinctive. Set at the 16th century Kasteel van Ooidonk in Deinze, the boutique festival returns for its eighth edition as a celebration of Belgian electronic music, thoughtful curation, and atmosphere driven luxury. What began as a creative side project has grown into one of the most characterful festival experiences in Belgium.
Beauville now makes a clear artistic choice to spotlight 100% Belgian talent. Rather than chasing international hype, the festival has embraced local artists as the core of its identity, creating a stronger sense of connection between crowd, music, and setting. That decision gives the event a grounded, authentic energy that feels both familiar and elevated. It is a festival built on recognition, quality, and a shared cultural rhythm.
The festival unfolds across three stages, each with its own atmosphere and personality. The Main Stage places the castle at the center of the experience, pairing monumental architecture with a polished VIP setting and a grand visual backdrop. The Forest Stage moves deeper into the greenery, where underground sounds and immersive scenography create a more intimate world. The Corona Stage, positioned along the Leie, offers a warmer and more playful contrast with dome shaped architecture and summer ready beats.
Saturday brings a contemporary electronic focus, with names such as Hermanos Inglesos, John Noseda, and Maxim Lany leading the Main Stage. The Forest Stage dives into heavier territory with a techno selection hosted by Intens Kollektief, while the Corona Stage leans into feminine energy and high impact summer vibes. On Sunday, Beauville pivots toward nostalgia with retro legends and pioneers of Belgian dance culture, turning the second day into a tribute to the scene that helped define it.
What sets Beauville apart is the way it treats Kasteel van Ooidonk not just as a backdrop, but as the soul of the festival. The recently renovated site appears in full splendor, and the organizers clearly position themselves as respectful guests of a historic landmark. As evening falls and the castle is softly lit, the entire event gains a cinematic quality that is rare in the festival world.
Beauville’s appeal extends beyond the music program. From scenography and gastronomy to service and space, every detail is designed to create a premium festival experience. The VIP offering is known for its comfort and proximity to the artists, while the broader site is shaped to feel spacious and considered. It is this balance between energy and refinement that gives Beauville its distinctive edge.
