50 iconic vehicles come to Brussels in December as part of new James Bond exhibition

Around 50 iconic and exclusive vehicles of the British secret agent James Bond will come to Brussels from 9 December 2022 to 14 May 2023 during the "Bond in Motion" exhibition. Visitors will also learn how the vehicles' spectacular scenes and stunts were created.

In 1962 "Dr No" was released, James Bond's debut on the big screen. The 60 year anniversary will be celebrated in Belgium in a big way. After the "Bond in Motion" exhibition was previously shown in London and Los Angeles, it is now Brussels' turn. Visitors will be immersed in 007's universe with around 50 iconic vehicles.

The expo will display cars, motorbikes, boats, helicopters, a jetpack and even an underground car used throughout the 25 James Bond films. They come straight from the set. Of course, the Aston Martin DB5 is not to be missed. Set pieces and other objects show how the famous action scenes were made.

The 6,000 square metres of the Brussels Expo will be arranged according to the four themes of water, earth, air and fire. The latter guarantees the explosive situations the British secret agent regularly finds himself in. There will also be a large British Bar where James Bond's signature vodka martini, "shaken, not stirred", is served.
