Ghent Illuminated

Add to my brochure print

As soon as night falls, the lights go back on. Across the entire city thousands of lamps and spotlights switch on forming the Ghent Lighting Plan. Not a mishmash of styles, but a carefully developed network of atmospheres and accents.

The concept was developed by lighting designer Roland Jéol and implemented in close consultation with experts and inhabitants. In 2004, the City of Ghent won the International City-People-Light Award with this lighting plan. The Michelin guide awarded it three stars.

So if you leave Ghent before sunset, you haven’t truly experienced it.
