ZOUTE EXPERIENCE Introduction Welcome to the ZOUTE EXPERIENCE, a journey in Belgium, with your beloved car during the ZOUTE GRAND PRIX WEEK. A festival of classic, vintage and premium cars in Belgium’s golden triangle.

Zoute Grand Prix Week ZOUTE GRAND PRIX WEEK is all about the good life, for contenders at the wheel of their beloved automobile, art lovers, the visitors and VIP’s chasing their dreams alike.

From 6 to 9 October, the ZOUTE GRAND PRIX WEEK will transform Knokke-Heist, Bruges and Ostend, three coastal cities, into the Walhalla of the automobile, art and lifestyle.

A variety of different events such as a rally for vintage and classic cars, a tour for new premium cars, a sale by Bonhams, a concours d’élégance and an exposition of art and art on four wheels.

Priceless Experience During the ZOUTE EXPERIENCE, you can taste the atmosphere of the different events and discover the cities on top of it. We have put together a program, especially for you and your club, that will take you to the highlights of this renown art and automobile event, over winding roads and past green and golden fields, at the wheel of your own new or classic car. The central point of this weekend is Bruges, Unesco World Heritage, the most charming city of Belgium.

3 CITIES, 1 EXPERIENCE Knokke Heist Knokke-Heist is particularly renowned for its laid-back lifestyle. Many of its luxurious mansions and charming villas are owned by prominent members of Belgium’s social, corporate and artistic life. The most luxurious part of town, Le Zoute, is renowned for its classy shops, stylish brand flagship stores, comfy hotels, cosy restaurants and art galleries. Due to its unique situation, the resort enjoys a year-round mild microclimate. Knokke-Heist is easily accessible from all major European cities.

Bruges Bruges, the Venice of the North, is located in the northwest corner of Belgium.

The historic city is a prominent World Heritage Site of UNESCO. With its treelined avenues, hushed cobbled streets, narrow alleys, huge squares for its many events, and characterful corners, discovering Bruges’ unique places is a feast for the eyes. Some hidden, others magnificent, all calling for your attention. Places that combine history and joie de vivre. In short, streets and squares full of stories where you’ll want to linger for hours.

Ostend Ostend is known for its sea-side esplanade, including the Royal Galleries of Ostend and fine-sandy beaches. Ostend is also known as the Belgian Queen of seaside resorts and is the most important coastal town of Belgium. The city has a large fishing port and a popular marina, beautiful designed parks, crowded shopping streets, markets and countless numbers of bars, discotheques and clubs.
