Concert Noble will no longer host NatCon conference next week.

It was billed as a glittering gathering of right-wing political figures from across Europe. But the future of the National Conservative conference due to take place in Brussels next week is in doubt after the host venue pulled out of the event.

Concert Noble, an upmarket events space in the heart of the European Quarter, has announced it  will no longer host the NatCon conference scheduled for Tuesday and Wednesday.

Among those slated to attend are Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, former British Home Secretary Suella Braverman, former UKIP leader Nigel Farage, and French politician Eric Zemmour.

MCC Brussels, a Hungarian government-backed think tank and part organizer of the event, said a search is now on for an alternative venue. Frank Furedi, executive director of MCC Brussels, denounced the decision by the venue to cancel the event.

    Among those slated to attend are Hungarian Prime Minister Viktor Orbán, former British Home Secretary Suella Braverman, former UKIP leader Nigel Farage, and French politician Eric Zemmour.

    NatCon has emerged as a player on the international think-tank circuit in recent years, and has a strong transatlantic focus.

    Next week’s gathering in Brussels was due to be its ninth event, with a further conference scheduled to take place in Washington this summer.

    The conference is run by the Edmund Burke Foundation, a Washington-based think tank founded in 2019 with the aim of advancing conservative ideology.
