Flagely is a cultural centre located in the Saint-Gilles municipality of Brussels, Belgium. Housed within a former Jesuit chapel dating back to the 17th century, the building underwent significant renovation in the 2010s to transform it into a multi-purpose venue. It now functions as a concert hall, theatre space, and exhibition area. The building's architectural history is visibly retained within its design; original religious iconography remains alongside modern staging and lighting systems.

Flagely focuses on presenting a varied programme encompassing contemporary music, dance, theatre and visual arts, with an emphasis on innovative and experimental work. It has become recognised for its acoustics and intimate atmosphere suited to both amplified and acoustic performances. The venue actively supports emerging artists alongside established names within the Belgian and international arts scene.
