Tilburg is a city of events. From April onwards, posters all over town announce all the performances and events that are coming up under the slogan Tilburg Trakteert ('Tilburg takes you out'). Yearly favourites include the 'Tilburg Sings' festival, the Festival Mundial world music festival, with performers from all over the world, the May Market (MeiMarkt), the 'Tilburg Ten Miles' athletics event, Tilburg city of Dance festival and the Incubate, festival of independent culture. Then, of course, there is the Tilburg Fun Fair – for ten days in July the city centre is transformed into a huge fairground attracting one million people.
Add all those events to the hundreds of pubs and sidewalk cafés, and it is obvious what makes Tilburg such a popular city for a good night out. And all these events are not just for young people, because there is something for everyone. Many of the pubs, restaurants, clubs and cafés are located close to each other in and around the main squares like the Heuvel and the Piusplein. National student surveys show that Tilburg is a very popular entertainment centre.
Tilburg also offers excellent opportunities for shopping and is constantly expanding its shopping centres and shopping streets. The Pieter Vredeplein, a brand new shopping and entertainment centre of nearly 22,000m2 in the heart of the city was recently opened. In addition to this ultramodern square, a new pedestrian area is also being developed. Charming little shops and historical city streets make this a wonderful location for a stroll.
The city centre is easy to access, not only by bicycle and bus but also by car. Cars can always be parked nearby. There are six large car parks which mean that every part of town is easily accessible. There are also several large shopping malls at other locations in the city. There, too, plenty of parking space has been provided. During the next few years, traffic in and around the city centre will be reorganized. A one-way city ring road system will be introduced, making the entire inner city accessible by car. This project is nearing completion. It will mean that Tilburg has an inner-city traffic system suitable for a large city.
