SMOG is a Brussels-based music venue and concert series dedicated to contemporary and experimental musics, bringing together musicians and sound artists whose practices rarely meet in the same space.

Since 2015, SMOG has explored the boundaries of contemporary musics through concerts, workshops, artistic residencies and collaborative projects, creating an open space for exchange, experimentation and discovery. Everything unfolds in a relaxed, laid-back atmosphere, within an industrial setting that feels raw and unpretentious, free from preconceptions!

Coproduction and Collaborations

SMOG is made possible with the support of the Fédération Wallonie-Bruxelles, the Flemish Government’s Arts Decree (Kunstendecreet) and the Ernst von Siemens Music Foundation.

Plus, over the years, SMOG has collaborated with a wide range of cultural institutions, music organisations, venues and festivals in Belgium and internationally. These collaborations take different forms, from co-productions and artistic exchanges to residencies and shared projects.
