PROGRAMME
During this 2-day event we are preparing for you a truly inspiring programme to make this Anniversary celebration unique.

To kick-off with AIJA's birthday, we will gather for the Welcome Cocktail Reception on Friday evening to set the anniversary mood. The evening will be hosted in the
KMSKA - Royal Museum of Fine Arts Antwerp, a newly renovated 19th century building filled with internationally renowned collection of art, that just re-opened on 24 September 2022. This will be a perfect occasion for different AIJA generations to start getting to know each other and exchanging on their experience with AIJA. The official Anniversary programme on that day finishes at 20:30. The evening is free to reconnect with friends informally, if you wish to have a dinner afterwards, we are putting together a list of restaurant suggestions and at the same time a tool to compose your dinner groups. Antwerp is a very busy city on Friday nights, thus it's recommended to create small groups and make the bookings well in advance.

On Saturday, our early-morning birds will start the day with a special edition of the Run for Human Rights (for the collectors - yes - there will be a unique opportunity to get an Anniversary t-shirt!). Following that, it will be the right moment to take off with our legacy programme. The participants of the event will have a chance to attend the '60/60 AIJA Through a Legacy Lens' meeting, comprising of a keynote session and interactive workshop, which will take place at the Hilton Antwerp Old Town hotel. By actively participating in the programme you will, among others, look back and celebrate what has been achieved, and look forward to explore how we want to shape AIJA's success for the future, be inspired and hear from past and current members as to how AIJA has had an impact on them, their firm and the global community, as well as demonstrate why AIJA should embrace activities that will create a legacy for not only AIJA but will benefit you and play a role towards societal transformation, or examine strategies on how you want AIJA and yourself to create an impact in the places where we gather with our events.


After such an uplifting part, a well-deserved get-together brunch will be waiting for our attendees enabling further networking. Full of AIJA spirit, we will depart on team building visits around the city as the part of legacy adventure, where you will discover more about Antwerp, its heritage, landmarks and traditions. On the way back, you can stop by the magical Christmas market to have a little vin chaud or enjoy a tasting of the famous and very local Elixir d'Anvers.

To conclude the day and whole Anniversary celebration, our cherry on top will be the grand 60th Birthday Gala Dinner at HandeslbeursIt will be a night to remember filled with fun and great memories, and a DJ will make you dance to AIJA's favourite hits. The evening will be accompanied by a number of attractions such as the AIJA exhibition featuring a unique collection of official past events posters, the 'AIJA Fashion Trends Show' and a lucky one may even become the owner of a true diamond. Are you excited as we are?

P.S. AIJA is looking for models to participate in our 'AIJA Fashion Trends Show'. Having variety of sizes in our wardrobe, we encourage those who want to have fun and actively engage into AIJA's story, to submit their interest. You may do that while filling out your registration form.
