Several streets in the city centre are hosting the fair Braderie Publique, during which shops will be offering unique promotions and special discounts.
Shop smart and park your car at one of the P+Rs on the outskirts of the city. Prefer to park in the city centre? Keep in mind that some streets are traffic-free during this event.(09u00 - 19u00). In addition, several routes to and from the city centre car parks have been changed due to roadworks.
Less mobile? Additional parking spaces are provided on Henegouwenstraat for persons with disabled parking permits.
Due to major roadworks in the (Neder)Kouter area certain routes to and from some city centre car parks have been altered.
Cyclists may continue to ride on participating streets, depending on the crowds. Be courteous and consider pedestrians. Make use of the existing bike parks or the additional bike parking near Henegouwenstraat.
Public transport will take you to the market zone hassle-free. Use De Lijn's route planner to plan your trip.
Are you driving to Ghent? First check whether you may enter the city centre with your vehicle. Clean vehicles may enter the city centre free of charge, polluting vehicles have to pay. Is your vehicle allowed to enter, but do you not have a Belgian or Dutch number plate? You will ALWAYS have to register!
