OUTDOOR BELGIUM FLAGS
Our outdoor flags of Belgium are made out of quick-drying nylon, an outstanding option for all-around, everyday flying. A strong heading and brass grommets allow this American-made flag to be flown easily on many different sized flagpoles, including a house-mounted pole. 3’ x 5’ is the most common size, but let this chart be your guide. Keep in mind that the length of a flag should be 1/4 of the height of the flagpole. Flag vs. pole size information may be found in our FAQ.
These outdoor flags are fantastic for flying on Belgian holidays, such as Whit Sunday, Belgium National Day, and Armistice Day, or for supporting Belgian national sports teams.

MORE ABOUT THE BELGIUM FLAG
Belgium’s classic tri-colour flag is based on the flag of the Duchy of Brabant, which created the first independent Belgian state, though it was short-lived. Eventually, Belgium retained its independence and created its flag, which has remained the same since the country’s creation in 1831.
Since then, Belgium has emerged from the ashes of the two World Wars that devastated the country to become a cultural and economic nexus of Europe. Brussels, its capital, is known as one of the most important diplomatic centers in the world, as it is the headquarters for both the European Union and NATO.
The Belgian flag’s vertical tri-colour design was inspired by that of the flag of France. The Belgium flag’s colours meanings each represent the lion seals of several of the country’s founding regions:
- Red - Hainaut, Limburg, and Luxembourg
- Yellow - Brabant
- Black - Flanders and Namur
