Blankenberge knows exactly how to end a festive evening: with a spectacular seaside fireworks show! A magical experience for both young and old. Every year, there are three fixed moments when the sky above the beach lights up in all the colours of the rainbow. These free spectacles are held for Belgium's National Day (July 21), the Flower Parade finale (August 30), and Halloween (late October).
