The Festival Borrel Noten was organized from 2020 to enliven the period between the concerts of Andre Rieu (July) and the Preuvenemint (end of August) with a series of small and intimate concerts in the old heart of the city. From the outset, this initiative proved to be a bull's-eye with around 4,000 visitors per year in the Faliezusterpark.
At the end of 2023, Borrel Noten threatened to cease to exist due to a financial policy change by the municipality. The board of the Roots Unlimited foundation announced this spring that it would like to take over the organization and programming of the Borrel Noten festival for the coming years in collaboration with café d'n Hiemel.
