Private chauffeur — BRAFA Brussels

Private Driver looks after your BRAFA day: drop-off at the entrance, a vehicle on standby nearby and a chauffeur who can carry on to a private viewing or a gallery on the Sablon — with no parking hunt in the January cold.

BRAFA at Brussels Expo

A chauffeur for the art fair

Every winter BRAFA brings gallery owners, collectors and advisers together in the halls of Brussels Expo, on the Heysel plateau. The fair itself is calm; the logistics around it much less so. Parking near the esplanade is tight from the moment the doors open, and on preview night the approaches are solid. A chauffeur drops you at the entrance and waits nearby until you're done.

From the Amigo, the Steigenberger, the Conrad or a residence in the centre it's only a few kilometres — but those few kilometres seize up fast in the evening rush and in the rain. We know the approaches via the R0 and the A12, the quiet drop-off points around the halls and the moments when it's better to go around than through.

For collectors, advisers and gallery guests we work with a Mercedes S-Class or V-Class: a quiet cabin to go through a catalogue on the way, careful handling of whatever you take with you, and a chauffeur who continues to a second appointment elsewhere in the city without needing to ask.

How we handle BRAFA

A day among the galleries, without a single parking problem.

Drop-off at Brussels Expo

We drop you at the fair entrance and stay on standby nearby. No lap of the esplanade looking for a space, no walk in January weather with a catalogue under your arm.

From your Brussels hotel

Punctual transfers from the Amigo, the Steigenberger, the Conrad or the Sofitel Le Louise, with a chauffeur who knows the Heysel approaches and sets the departure time by your first appointment at the fair.

A day on disposition

Book the chauffeur by the day to link the fair with a private viewing, the antique dealers of the Sablon or lunch in town. You move at your own pace, not at the pace of the next booking.

Discretion around acquisitions

Unobtrusive, careful handling of catalogues and purchases, a chauffeur who passes no comment on what comes into the car, and an NDA on request for sensitive collections or confidential transactions.

  • Fixed quote confirmed before every departure
  • Real-time flight monitoring with complimentary waiting
  • Named chauffeur — Mercedes S-Class or V-Class
  • NDA on request · post-trip data deletion

FAQ — BRAFA

Disposition or a single transfer?
If you're combining the fair with gallery visits, a private viewing or lunch, disposition is the better option: the vehicle stays on standby and you decide on the spot when to move on. For one visit with no detours, a single transfer will do.
Is the price agreed in advance?
Yes. Transfers are quoted before departure, VAT included. Disposition runs per block of hours or as a day rate confirmed at booking — and even on preview days we apply no peak surcharge.
How do we book?
Online, on WhatsApp or by phone. Give us your hotel, your fair day and your provisional times; we confirm the vehicle and your chauffeur's name, and keep the schedule flexible for last-minute appointments.
Does the chauffeur wait during the fair visit?
On a disposition the vehicle stays on standby near Brussels Expo, even if your visit runs on until the last stand closes. On a transfer we confirm the included waiting time and the rate beyond it in advance.
