Explore our temporary exhibition The Parade together with an expert guide. Expect fresh insights into the STAM collection, fascinating stories and surprising discoveries. How did these objects become part of the collection? Why were they collected in the first place? And how are they preserved for future generations?
Would you prefer to visit The Parade with your group, without a guide? That's possible too. Please make sure to register your self-guided group visit in advance.
Do you have any questions about the content of this guided tour or would you like personalised advice? Feel free to contact us.

Most exhibitions start with a theme, a storyline, and a carefully selected group of objects. But not for ‘The Parade’. For this exhibition, we’re deliberately steering clear of the traditional approach. Forget the theme and the narrative; ‘The Parade’ takes its cue purely from our collection - holding around 30,000 remarkably diverse objects - and the sheer joy of looking and discovering. Destination unknown; the journey itself - as is so often the case - is what matters most.
Explore 'The Parade' with your group and an expert guide, then go behind the scenes at STAM. Discover how a museum works and gain access to areas usually closed to visitors.
Feel free to touch! A fun children’s trail that leads through every room in the museum. Children become merchants, craftspeople, architects or city trippers and participate in city life. They sell cloth, make coats of arms, face façades and work out routes.
STAM turned ten last year... time for a make-over for the permanent exhibition! Since the end of 2020 you can stroll through the new Story of Ghent.
