The Flag of the Brussels-Capital Region consists of a stylized yellow, grey and white iris on a blue background. Note that this is the flag of the whole Brussels Region, and the City of Brussels municipality has a different flag.
The first flag was adopted by the Capital Region in 1991. A new flag based on the city's current logo became official in early 2015.
First flag (1991–2015)[]
The Brussels-Capital Region, created on 18 June 1989, adopted the plant as the symbol of the city on 5 March 1991. The exact design was chosen through a public competition, with the design by Jacques Richez being chosen. The blue and yellow colours are those of the European Union, of which Brussels is the de facto capital city. Design The flag, as defined by law, had proportions of 2:3. The iris is yellow with a white border and the background is blue.
