Atelier BNO is the new rehearsal and creative space of the Belgian National Orchestra, inaugurated in January 2026 in the presence of Jan Jambon, Deputy Prime Minister in charge of the Federal Cultural Institutions.

Designed as a faithful replica of the stage of Bozar’s Henry Le Bœuf Hall — in both dimensions and layout — the venue also features flexible acoustics thanks to adjustable curtains. This new space marks a major step forward in the orchestra’s artistic development. Three times larger than the previous rehearsal room, it can host up to 200 people and opens the door to many uses: open rehearsals, recordings, chamber music concerts, artist residencies, audience encounters, and more.

It offers a unique environment to experiment, create and develop ever more ambitious projects, in close connection with the orchestra’s audiences and partners. Atelier BNO is also equipped with a new Yamaha CFX grand piano, symbolising a promising new partnership.
