At the height of summer, Thee met Vlinders will allow visitors to experience a unique event: a venue where they can enjoy their favourite drink, surrounded by hundreds of flying butterflies.

Encircled by exotic plants and butterflies, visitors will be able to admire species that live all around the world, from the Blue Morpho butterfly to the Owl butterfly. The elegant cafe surroundings encourage visitors to relax and enjoy their beverage of choice: be it tea, coffee, soft drinks, juice, a glass of wine, champagne or fine Belgium beer.

Thee met Vlinders is designed to recreate an ecosystem that perfectly suits the needs of these ephemeral beings. Butterflies are delicate creatures and very sensitive to climate change, which is why the scientific management of Tea with the Butterflies has been entrusted to the entomologist Laurian Parmentier, a researcher at the University of Ghent.

After the success of Thee met Vlinders in Rome and Florence, visitors of Knokke are not only invited to enjoy a drink, but to also learn about the fascinating life cycle of butterflies, and the need to protect these little creatures, as the destruction of their habitat and increasing air pollution makes them particularly vulnerable.
