Duck into Toone, Brussels' beloved traditional puppet theatre. Watch a marionette performance in an intimate old hall, then linger over a beer in the bar among visitors from around the world.

📖

Full description

Toone is a long-running marionette theatre in central Brussels, where traditional puppet performances take place in a cosy, authentic hall. Visitors who do not speak French still report enjoying the atmosphere, and some stop in only for a beer at the attached bar.

Guides on walking and food tours recommend it as a quirky stop. The theatre is closed on Mondays and opens at midday on Saturdays, running into the late evening.

Booking is advised for shows, which last roughly an hour and a quarter. It appeals to couples and travellers seeking something unusual and local.

Reviews

It was such a great experience. It felt so cozy and the theatre was so amazing and real. Even if I didn’t know any French, I had a great time.
