De Warande is a Flemish club, located in Brussels, Belgium. The club was founded in Brussels in 1988.

When founded in 1988, then club received an interest-free loan of €750,000 from Flanders to renovate its building at Brussels Park (Dutch: Warandepark). In 2018, the Flemish Government granted the business club a 20-year interest-free loan of €800,000, to "strengthen the Flemish presence in Brussels and promote the international [...] Flanders." Both loans are reimbursed by memberships for 50 or 60 Flemish ministers, heads of cabinet and top civil servants, equivalent to €800 per year, per membership.[1]
