Local Folklore - St Jean Tour 🎺 ♫

[magicalwolf]

Hello Everyone,

Tour of St Jean is a folklore event in Gosselies between June 23th to Sunday 25th every year. It's always a good occasion to reunite Gosseliens. A Group of people wear military costumes, there are drummers, trumpets etc. Generally, it starts very early in the morning with a open-air mass at St Jean Chapel.

Then, they go to the streets. Lots of Activities and a firework during the evening.
