VENTURA INTERIEUR LOCATIONS
Ventura Interieur will take place in two areas; on the Biennale Interieur grounds (Kortrijk Xpo) and on the Buda Island in the city center of Kortrijk.
 
The presentation of Ventura Interieur at the fairgrounds will provide the visitors of the Biennale a glimpse of what Ventura Interieur is all about and what they can expect to see on the Buda Island. The main locations of Ventura Interieur are on Buda Island, the historical and cultural district of Kortrijk. This cultural hive will serve as the backdrop for Ventura Interieur.
