The European Parliament elections of 9 June 2024 unfolded within a particularly dynamic political context in Belgium. Coinciding with the country’s federal and regional elections, they occurred just four months before voters returned to the polls for municipal and provincial contests. Additionally, these elections overlapped with Belgium’s Presidency of the Council of the European Union (January–June 2024) and introduced two remarkable features: the post-Brexit redistribution of seats, which increased Belgium’s representation to 22 Members of the European Parliament, and the extension of voting rights to 16- and 17-year-olds for the first time. The concurrence of the European, national and regional elections created expectations that the European Parliament results would closely align with federal and regional outcomes—a prediction that proved largely accurate, albeit not without some interesting exceptions. The far-right Vlaams Belang, widely anticipated to dominate across all levels, emerged as the largest party exclusively in the European Parliament, while the Flemish nationalist N-VA maintained its dominant position at the national and regional levels. Meanwhile, the far-left Partij van de Arbeid van België (Workers’ Party of Belgium, PVDA-PTB) achieved a historic milestone by securing its first-ever seat in the Dutch-speaking electoral college.
