An Evening With
ARNOLD
Schwarzenegger
From bodybuilding champ to Hollywood icon to politician.
Join us for an exclusive evening about reinventing yourself.
Bodybuilding champion. Movie star. Politician. Icon.
Following iconic editions with President Barack Obama and Oprah Winfrey, An Evening With… welcomes Arnold Schwarzenegger to the stage in 2026.
His story is one that goes far beyond a Hollywood success story. It traces a path of relentless reinvention: from arriving in America with a clear dream, to becoming a world-class athlete, one of the most famous actors of his time, and ultimately a European-born Governor of California, leading one of the world’s largest economies. His life proves how vision and discipline can drive impact far beyond the personal — and change the world.
An Evening with Arnold Schwarzenegger: an evening about ambition, reinvention, and the mindset behind lasting success — in life and in the world
One life story. One night. A rare opportunity to be there.
One night. One icon.
A lifetime of reinvention.
From bodybuilding to Hollywood to politics — Arnold didn’t wait for permission. He built his own path. During this exclusive evening, he breaks down the mindset behind world-class success, resilience, and reinvention. Expect straight talk. Expect big laughs. Expect a serious dose of fuel for your own next move.

Reinvent yourself
Arnold Schwarzenegger didn’t just reinvent himself once — he made reinvention a habit.
From a small Austrian village to world champion bodybuilder, Hollywood icon, and political leader, Arnold proved that identity is something you build, not something you inherit. His rule? Be useful.
In Be Useful: Seven Tools for Life, Arnold breaks down the mindset behind continuous reinvention: clear vision, bold ambition, relentless work, adaptability when things change, and the discipline to give back once you’ve grown.
This is not a feel-good story about success. It’s a hard truth about ownership. No one is coming to rescue you. Reinvention starts when you decide to be useful.
Every attendee receives a copy of Be Useful to take home.
Because reinvention doesn’t happen on stage. It happens after.

Getting to the venue
Let us bring you to the venue and back in our branded Polestars
To make your journey as smooth as possible, we’ve partnered once again with Polestar to offer an exclusive SuperNova Shuttle Service. Electric, comfortable, and stress-free — these shuttles will bring you straight from key parkings and selected hotels to the front door of Waagnatie.
This service is designed to remove friction: no searching for parking, no last-minute detours, just step in and arrive focused.
The full schedule and stops will be shared soon — we’ll update this page as soon as everything is confirmed
Hop on De Lijn — Antwerp’s easy city network
Antwerp’s buses and trams are run by De Lijn, and they’re one of the simplest ways to reach Waagnatie from Antwerpen-Centraal or around the city. From Central Station you can jump on:
- Tram 24 (to Havenhuis) — get off at Antwerpen London, then it’s about a 700 m walk to Waagnatie.
- Tram 7 (toward Eilandje) — get off at Antwerpen MAS, then it’s roughly a 350 m walk.
- Bus 17 — gets you to Felixpakhuis, around a 1 km walk.
How it works: Tickets can be bought via the De Lijn app (plan your trip, buy mobile tickets, get live times), at ticket machines at major stops, or directly on board where contactless payment is accepted. If in doubt, Google Maps travel planning works well too.
Rail in — direct, fast, and comfy to Antwerp
Your main rail hub is Antwerpen-Centraal — central, beautiful, and very well connected.
From within Belgium:
Belgian Rail tickets & planner: https://www.belgiantrain.be/en/
- From Brussels Airport (BRU): frequent direct trains run roughly every 30 minutes and take about 30 minutes to reach Antwerpen-Centraal.
- From Brussels city centre: trains depart regularly and take ~40 minutes.
- From other Belgian cities (Ghent, Bruges, Liège, etc.): just plug your origin into the Belgian Rail planner and book at https://www.belgiantrain.be/en/.
From abroad:
Eurostar tickets: https://www.eurostar.com/
- Eurostar doesn’t stop directly in Antwerp, but you can ride high-speed to Brussels-Midi and switch to a local NMBS/SNCB train from Brussels to Antwerpen-Centraal.
- International connections from Amsterdam, Paris, Cologne and beyond connect into Belgium’s rail network; just plan Brussels as your transfer point if needed.
Move how you like — wheels on demand
Antwerp’s city bike-share is a fantastic and eco choice. You can buy a day pass (€5) or week pass (€12) in the Velo app, unlock bikes at any of the many stations (including near Amsterdamstraat and Red Star Line), and return them at any other station when you’re done. Each ride is included up to 30 minutes per session — perfect for a quick cruise to Waagnatie.
Other rentals:
- Bike rentals (e-bikes, regular) via local services like Donkey Republic or Swapfiets — book through their apps and pick up close to Antwerp-Centraal.
- Electric scooters from providers like Bolt or Voi — find, unlock and pay via their apps; park responsibly when finished.
- Car rentals (Poppy, local agencies) give you full flexibility — just remember Waagnatie is inside Antwerp’s low-emission zone (LEZ).
Door-to-door — simple and stress-free
Taxis are everywhere in Antwerp — from stands (e.g., around Antwerp-Centraal) or via apps like Uber and local taxi apps. Just enter “Waagnatie, Rijnkaai 150, 2000 Antwerpen” as the destination and you’ll be dropped right at the venue entrance. This is one of the easiest options after trains or bikes if you’re carrying gear or prefer a private ride.
Coming by car? Plan smart.
Driving to SuperNova is possible — but it requires a bit of planning.
Due to ongoing construction works around Waagnatie, the large on-site parking at the venue will not be available during the event. If you’re coming by car, we strongly recommend deciding where to park in advance to avoid delays or last-minute stress.
What to expect:
- No public parking directly at Waagnatie
- Several alternative parkings will be available within reasonable distance
- From there, you’ll be able to continue by public transport, bike, taxi or shuttle
We’re currently finalising the best parking options for SuperNova visitors and will share clear recommendations shortly.
👉 Tip: if you want the smoothest arrival, consider combining parking with public transport, bike, or the SuperNova Shuttle Service.
Fly in, then hop on the train
If you’re flying into Brussels Airport (BRU), the fastest, easiest way to reach Antwerp is by train. Trains depart directly from the station below the airport terminals and reach Antwerpen-Centraal in about 30 minutes on direct services — with frequent departures throughout the day.
What to do:
- After landing, follow signs to the Train Station under the airport.
- Buy a ticket online in advance or at ticket machines; then board a direct train to Antwerpen-Centraal.
- From there, walk, use public transport (trams/bus), bike, taxi or scooter to reach Waagnatie.
If you prefer a taxi/Uber, they’re available curbside at the airport — quicker but more expensive.

Why is Arnold Schwarzenegger coming to An Evening With?

Because Reinvent Yourself isn’t a slogan — it’s his life story.
Arnold Schwarzenegger is the living proof that growth is never linear. From elite athlete to global movie icon to political leader, he has reinvented himself time and time again. Not as a one-off decision, but as a lifelong mindset.
That message matters more than ever today.
In a world shaped by rapid technological change and the rise of AI, individuals and organizations are being forced to rethink skills, roles, and business models. Reinvention is no longer optional — it’s essential to stay relevant.
“In a world defined by constant change, the ability to reinvent yourself has become essential. At SuperNova, we want to inspire people, companies, and even countries to embrace that mindset. Arnold Schwarzenegger is the living embodiment of ‘Reinvent Yourself’. His story shows that reinvention is not a one-time act, but a lifelong mindset. We are proud to welcome him for An Evening With.”
