BRAFA 2013 to be held from January 19 - 27


BRAFA, short for Brussels Antiques & Fine Arts Fair, is one of the longest running fairs in the world and is organized every year by the Belgian Antiques Fair not-for-profit association.

De Munt / La Monnaie is delighted to be the guest of honour at Brafa 2013.  It is a sterling opportunity to show yet again the extent to which opera is an art form open to all and a direct link to the world.

In 2013, the “Théâtre Royal de la Monnaie” will celebrate the fiftieth anniversary of its current form as the National Opera of Belgium. It has moreover established itself as a major stage in the international opera circuit, as its productions usually elicit accolades in the specialised press.

It therefore made sense for Brafa and La Monnaie to join forces:  these two institutions are keen on and explicitly geared to promoting, preserving and presenting works of art to the public by insisting on the importance of the creation and the beauty of the works.
