Are you curious to know how fun fairs came about? A guide will tell you all about it every Sunday during the Mid-Lent fun fair. The guided tour starts at the Great Butchers' Hall at 2.30 pm.
As usual, there will be one stimulus-poor day during the Mid-Lent fun fair. This means that there will be less flickering lights, less commotion and less noise. This is a day when autistic or epileptic children and adults can really have fun at the fair.
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!
