Hello, my wife and I will be in Brussels during EASTER 2026. We would love to attend an Easter service.
My question is this:
Could any of you wonderful people give me any advice as to which church would be best (we are Protestant but have zero issues attending a Catholic church). I guess we'd love to experience service at one of the amazing churches/cathedrals. Any suggestions as to which one I should go to, or any ideas as to what I might expect...would be GREATLY APPRECIATED.
Thanks!

Each year Cathobruxelles publishes a list of all celebrations during Holy Week, categorized by religion mentioning the language (GB is English, E being Spanish). It's still too early for Easter 2026, but here's the 2025 list as an example (in french) (and where you will find the update later) https://www.catho-bruxelles.be/paques-horaires-de-la-semaine-sainte/
Thanks! So nice of you to answer.
Looking into this further...we now think we'd like to attend either Saints-Michel-et-Gudule or St. Nicholas as they are close to our hotel. Are any of their services in English? Can tourists attend there?
Services at Saints-Michel-et-Gudule are only in mixed Dutch and French. St-Nicolas church has a service in english. Everyone can access.
