Since 2022, the AB has been expanded by a group of approximately 200 motivated volunteers. They are deployed behind the bar, as hosts at events, at the ticket scanner or as stewards during AB festivals. In recent years, the volunteers have developed into a close-knit team that has become indispensable to the running of our venue. In 2026, a brand-new building will open in the Rue des Pierres/Steenstraat, where the volunteers will also play a crucial role. 

To ensure that our volunteer program runs smoothly, we are looking for a Volunteer Coordinator.
