Antwerp comes from the name ‘aan de werpe,’ which is the Dutch translation for ‘the throw’ in reference to the river throwing sand at the bend. This city is blessed with a river and an outlet to the ocean, which made it one of the most influential trading ports in the 16th century. With increasing trade and different cultures introduced to the city, Antwerp has evolved into a dynamic city in Belgium today. Antwerp is also the world’s ‘diamond city’ since 70 percent of all diamonds in the market are traded here. This fusion of other cultures, an easy lifestyle, and carefree people attracts many tourists.

Antwerp has a high value for the arts and classy performances. The Antwerpen theatre scene takes cue from the development of Belgian music theatre in the 1980’s. Before, Antwerp produced a lot of operas that were major productions that catered to a mass audience. Now, music-theatre productions are made to cater to focused audiences. Music theatres are also produced in small scale, which means that they do not subscribe to the conventional process of opera productions. Antwerp was the first city in Belgium to have talented production companies for theatre performances.
