5/5 from 874 reviews
Photo of Fête Laweit Fête Laweit "Thanks to Fête Laweit, we can say about the 1st edition of Ballucinant that it was more than successful! The group closed the festival , creating a wonderful and enchanting atmosphere. Constant dancing, and constant fun showed that they were the perfect group for the evening." Based in Gent, Flanders, Belgium (31 miles from Middelburg) Ballucinant - Swing/dance event Photo of Jazz Bands Antwerp | Jazz Central Agency Jazz Bands Antwerp | Jazz Central Agency "Better than our idols You only turn 65 once, so that called for a party with 65 guests, excellent catering, and live jazz music with a singer (Willem). Our preference was for the crooner style of Michael Bublé and Dennis van Aartsen, but this band was even better than our idols and exceeded our expectations: wonderful music, super professional, with friendly band members. It turned into a fantastic party with compliments about the music from all guests, young and old. We look back on it with great pleasure!" Based in Antwerp, Flanders, Belgium (39 miles from Middelburg) 5th December 2025 Josephine - Birthday Photo of Jazz Moments Jazz Moments "Jazz Moments set the ideal tone for our reception with their refined and tasteful music.
