Everyone deserves a beautiful lawn!
Mowed or wild, silky or rough, soft or coarse, with or without dew: the important thing is to be able to roll around in it.
Get out your trowels, put on your dancing shoes, and let yourself be swept away by this horticultural adventure right now.

FANFABORDAGE 2025
You're beginning to know the set up (3rd edition): a succession of brass bands, sounds that explode in your face and storms of glitter. And even acrobats if you’ve deserved it.
This year, we're going local, with a 100% Brussels line-up: 4 bands - 60+ artists (!!!) - and then the Tropical Djipsies collective adding a layer of sunblock to the Illegaal inferno.
Who will win the Golden Parrot 2025 at the tombola ?
On Friday the 13th, if you don't come to Fanfabordage, Fanfabordage will come to you, to take you under a ladder with black cats in limbo, dressed as 4-leaf clovers.
Honestly, this will be one for the books.

Tout le monde mérite une belle Pelouse!
Pelouse Grass Band est une fanfare bruxelloise joyeuse et fleurie, 100% recyclable. Avant tout, Pelouse Grass Band c’est 16 copains musiciens (percussions et cuivres) rassemblés pour transmettre leur passion. Issus d’horizons divers mais tous passionnés de bonne musique, ces musiciens ont à cœur de diffuser leur énergie positive intarissable.
A quoi faut-il s’attendre? Un répertoire aussi festif que varié! S’il n’est pas rare de percevoir un souffle champêtre de cuivres qui balaie le carnaval des rues du Brésil, attendez vous à danser sur des classiques pop et techno revisités.
Pelouse Grass Band ne recule devant aucun défi lorsqu’il s’agit de faire danser son public.

Ledereen verdient een mooi gazon!
Pelouse Grass Band (PGB) is een vrolijke, bloemrijke en 100% recycleerbare fanfare uit het Brusselse. PGB staat voor 16 enthousiast bevriende muzikanten (drums, sax en kopers) met diverse achtergronden en met een hart dat even luid bonkt als de beat. Deze muzikanten spelen om hun onuitputtelijke positieve energie te verspreiden.
Wat mag u verwachten? Een even feestelijke als gevarieerde setlist! U kunt authentieke deuntjes waarnemen die u meevoeren naar een carnaval in de straten van Brazilië, en voor u het weet wordt u in de trance geworpen van onze gereviseerde pop- en technoklassiekers.
Pelouse Grass Band gaat geen enkele uitdaging uit de weg om zijn publiek aan het dansen te krijgen.

The best of our blurred photos and videos
Brussels, get ready to grow wild! Pelouse, your friendly neighbourhood fanfare, is bringing the botanical beats. Brass and grass collide in a symphony of sonic sunshine. We're planting seeds of joy, one funky fanfare at a time. So grab your dancing shoes (or clogs!) and join the horticultural hootenanny!
It's gonna be blooming marvellous.
