Highlights, with my take

Sat 23 Jan 2027 – Sun 24 Jan 2027, 08:00 · Vayamundo, Houffalize, Belgium
Houffa Trail 2027
January trail running in the Ardennes, with the resort on site so you can stay the night rather than drive home frozen. The night trails are the ones people come back for.
Mon 25 Jan 2027 – Sun 31 Jan 2027 · Saarbrücken, Germany
48. Filmfestival Max Ophüls Preis
If you want to see the German films that will be talked about all year before they reach a Luxembourg screen, this is where they premiere.
Tue 26 Jan 2027 – Thu 25 Feb 2027 · Trifolion (Foyer), 2 Porte Saint Willibrord, Echternach, Luxembourg
Bestiary: Anastasiia Pantiukhina
Free, small and easy to combine with a concert at the same venue, which is the point of a foyer show.
Thu 28 Jan 2027, 18:30 · Kinepolis Kirchberg, 45 avenue John F. Kennedy, Luxembourg-Kirchberg
Paperjam 10x6 Entrepreneurship: 50 Years of FJD
Cross-generational founder stories are a better read on the local scene than any ecosystem report.
Fri 29 Jan 2027 – Sat 20 Feb 2027 · Manège Fonck, Liège, Belgium
Festival de Liège 2027
Biennial, so skipping it means waiting until 2029. The Manège Fonck programmes harder work than most houses in the region.
Sat 30 Jan 2027 – Sun 31 Jan 2027 · ULB Solbosch campus, Brussels, Belgium
FOSDEM 2027
Two and a half hours by train from Luxembourg and it costs nothing, which makes it the best value tech weekend in the region.
Sat 30 Jan 2027 – Sun 31 Jan 2027 · Vaals, Netherlands
Trail des Trois Bornes 2027
The only start line on the agenda outside the Greater Region, at the point where the Dutch, German and Belgian borders meet, and a winter trail is a fair excuse to go and stand on it. Entries are not open yet, so the notify button is the only move for now.
