More than 4,800 of you came to Les Halles de Schaerbeek and our partner venues over a weekend of readings, meetings, walks, workshops, performances and sharing. We were delighted to welcome you and moved to see the poetry circulating in the aisles, in people's hands and in their eyes.

Thank you to all of you, visitors, publishers, booksellers, illustrators, students and artists, for bringing the Poetik Bazar to life and taking part in these 3 days of poetic effervescence.

Mark your calendars: Poetik Bazar returns for a 5th edition on September 19, 20 & 21, 2025!

For a weekend, live to the rhythm of poetry!

Join us for a weekend of poetic effervescence in the heart of Brussels, and discover poetry publishers from Belgium, France, Switzerland, the Netherlands and Quebec. Poetic objects of all kinds, from books and magazines to micro-editions and illustrations.

Also, for three days, a rich and diverse program during the day and evening: performances, meetings, conferences, workshops, signings, outdoor activities and events to help you (re)discover the vitality of the contemporary poetry scene.
