St Nicholas to hand out chocolates on Brussels metro

After a busy night delivering gifts to the children of Belgium, Saint Nicholas will be handing out sweets and chocolates on Brussels' public transport network this Tuesday.

The STIB says St Nick will spend most of 6 December on trams and metros in the city, thanking passengers of all ages for using public transport.

He will set off from the Gare de l'Ouest at 8.15 towards De Brouckère, jump on a tram one stop to Rogier at 9.00 and then take a metro to Porte de Hal.

Other stop-offs on his itinerary are Arts-Loi, Maelbeek and Gare Centrale metro stations, before he calls it a day at about 16.00.
