Zingende Tafels 3.png

The Singing Tables are a household name in Genk and the surrounding area, and are a must at this festival. With a lovely drink in hand, you can sing along in a relaxed atmosphere with literally everyone sitting around and next to you at the table, accompanied by live instruments such as the piano, guitar and accordion.

If you’d like to sing well-known Flemish classics and international hits, you’re very welcome. You don’t need to be an experienced singer to take part. The focus is on having fun, meeting people and the social aspect. Jeroen Vanesser will be keeping this singing extravaganza running smoothly.
