The 20th edition of Heritage Day weekend on April 24-25 will be special anyway. In Ypres, the Dream District Service has developed a unique Corona-safe program on behalf of the St. Peter’s Church Factory: Noxaal.
Last year, the Church Factory asked this socio-artistic group to organize something to mark Heritage Day 2020, but Corona threw a key into the works. Thankfully, DDGG was asked again this year to come up with something. We learn this from Simon Vantomme.
“We are very grateful to them for this,” says Simon. “Jeff Peters is our contact person at the Church Factory and we’re getting all the necessary collaboration. That’s a good feeling. At DDGG, we quickly felt that we had to organize a ‘something’ safe from Corona, because people yearn for culture and meeting people.

DDGG organizers have also thought about this carefully. “Normally, the common people wouldn’t have access to the shield,” says Simon Phantom. “We had hoped to give some visitors the opportunity to visit this space through our performance, but given the current pandemic, this is not possible and we fully understand that!” Ghost explains the time of their initiative: “The dedicated night we want to show off during the performance. We chose to organize a live broadcast in the evening in an intimate setting, where we basically want to complement the dark with mood lighting and warmth from the performances themselves. We can do this thanks to the collaboration of Kanzi Louagie and Stan Outtier who help On the technical side of streaming and sound. The performances themselves are performed by “Here it is” (formerly Ieperling Lieven Devloo) and “The Grand RazoO” (Wannes Beernaert, one of the participants of The Voice).
