Expo 58
Expo 58, also known as the Brussels World’s Fair ((オランダ語:Brusselse Wereldtentoonstelling), (フランス語:Exposition Universelle et Internationale de Bruxelles)), was held from 17 April to 19 October 1958.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=When the world was in Brussels )〕 It was the first major World's Fair after World War II.
==Background==
Nearly 15,000 workers spent three years building the site on the Heysel plateau, northwest of central Brussels, Belgium. Many of the buildings were re-used from the Brussels International Exposition of 1935, which had been held on the same site.
Every 25 years starting in 1855, Belgium had staged large national events to celebrate its national independence following the Belgian Revolution of 1830. However, the Belgian government under prime minister Achille Van Acker decided to forego celebrations in 1955 to have additional funding for the 1958 Expo.〔''Expo 58'', The Royal Belgian Film Archive, Revised Edition, 2008, p. 78 (booklet accompanying DVD edition of footage from the exhibition)〕
Expo 58 was the 11th World's Fair hosted by Belgium, and the fifth in Brussels, following the fairs in 1888, 1897, 1910 and 1935. Since Expo 58, Belgium has not arranged any more world fairs.
