  • People in Tunhout like to have parties. This is common all over Belgium, but during the summer there is always something to do. Every excuse is good for a party, special when there is lots of beer ;-)

  • Every year, on the market square they hold the so called Fri-days. This means that every Friday evening there is a concert from national and international bands. This event is free and is going on from end of June till end of August. Check the website for the bands. See for pictures of some concerts in my travelogue please...

  • Every year during the summer months we have a Sidewalk Cafe Theatre on the Market Place. This is a competition between several theatre groups during several weeks. It's always fun and artistic together with a nice (alcoholic) drink...

  • Every year in August the Turnhout fun fain is a fact. This 10 day during fair is very enjoyable and takes place at the market square between all the pubs. Big attraction is also the day when the fair peddlers arriving on the market square. Then lots of music bands will play and lots of people enjoy the view with a glass of beer on one off the terraces. Take contact with the tourist office to know the right dates please...

     This is our second time staying at the Ter Driezen and it was wonderful. We stayed off the courtyard. I would highly recommend to anyone traveling to Turnhout.
