festival Klinkers. Every year, this festive 14-day event is

HOLY BLOOD PROCESSION. The Procession of the
Holy Blood, which certainly dates back to 1304, is held
every year on Ascension Day. Despite the changes that the
procession has undergone throughout the centuries, the
most profound spirituality prevails through the memory of
the suffering of Jesus Christ. Following the Jubilee (2000)
the procession has been renewed and updated. From
Thursday, May 29, 2014 to Thursday, May 29, 2014;
Basilica of St Basil, Burg Square, Markt Square and streets

CACTUS FESTIVAL. Cactus is a festival on a human
scale, in a relaxed atmosphere, which deliberately
dissociates itself from the trends towards 'more' and
'bigger'. You will not suffer any agonising dilemmas, as
Cactus opts for one stage, which means the audience can
watch the programme from start to finish. An atmospheric
festival that manages to titillate the senses off-stage too,
with fresh animation and appropriate decoration. A venue
where reputed musicians, musical innovators of the future
and a musically open-minded audience come together.
From Friday, July 11, 2014 to Sunday, July 13, 2014 ;
Minnewaterpark, Bruges. USE-IT BRUGGE Get the map at
