One night, seven museums, and plenty happening long after their usual closing hours: Luxembourg City's Night of Museums returns for its 25th edition, bringing together exhibitions, performances, DJ sets, workshops, special tours, and food stops until 1am. This year's anniversary edition also comes with a creative challenge: collect a stamp at each participating museum to gradually build your own artistic souvenir.

What: Lazy Sundays: Brunch & Film
Where: Kulturfabrik, Esch-sur-Alzette
When: Sunday 11 October, from 11am – more info here
Sunday plans do not need to involve rushing anywhere. Kulturfabrik's Lazy Sundays series has the right idea: start with a generous buffet brunch, then stick around for an afternoon trip to the cinema.

With just 40 brunch places available per sitting, booking ahead is a smart move.
