How do I book a train to Bruges from the UK?
We will stop selling Any Belgian Station tickets on 31 March 2025 and the last available travel date for these tickets is 14 June 2025.
For a short time, you’ll need to buy tickets for connecting journeys across Belgium from other local rail operators. But very soon you will be able to buy connecting tickets at eurostar.com and on our app.
With this replacement solution, you’ll be able to book your Eurostar and SNCB tickets in one go, directly selecting your origin or destination station in Belgium. You’ll then receive your SNCB ticket to connect in Brussels, Liège or Antwerp.
We’re making this change so we can offer connecting journeys to passengers on all our routes and not just those travelling between Belgium and the UK.
To get to Bruges from the UK, book an Any Belgian Station ticket.
You’ll travel with Eurostar to Brussels-Midi/Zuid (it’s one station, it just has a French and a Dutch name), then it’s a simple change to an SNCB train to continue your journey through Belgium. Our trains within Belgium, high speed ICE trains, as well as the Brussels Metro and trams aren’t covered by your ticket.
You won’t have a seat booked on the local train, so just hop on and find a seat – in first class if you have a Standard Premier or Business Premier ticket.
There’s no need to rush your connection. As long as you carry on within 24 hours, you can spend a little time in Brussels en route. On the way home, you can arrive in Brussels any time within 24 hours of your Eurostar departure.
Your ticket will only show travel times to/from Brussels.
Please ensure that you allow plenty of time to get from your final destination to Brussels for your return trip.
