Maastricht Burgundians!

This year, Festival TREK has been around for 11 years! And how many of you came over the past decade. Together we enjoyed lots of delicious food, cold drinks, theater, live music, nostalgic fairground attractions and much more!

As the brand new Mayor of TREK, I am very proud of that. I feel very honored to welcome you again this year from Thursday 29 May to Sunday 1 June (Ascension weekend) in the Maastricht City Park. Especially for this weekend, we are transforming this beautiful park into one big open-air restaurant.

Make a tasty journey of discovery through the wide range of street food. Take a seat at the Chef’s Table at one of the mobile food trucks, taste surprising ingredients or dare to try the tastefully prepared new dishes. From sushi to Surinamese, from vegetarian to burgers; your taste buds will be treated all weekend long. You can quench your thirst at the cocktail bar, the extensive wine bar with a lovely terrace, the Biergarten with a wide range of special beers or the Sangria & Bubbels Bar.

Special acts by young theatre makers and intimate live performances complete a visit to TREK. Musical talent and cabaret artists get the chance to play the stars from the sky on the stage of my City Hall and break through in their own city and country. A theatre caravan travels through the park to entertain you and old fairground classics provide the greatest fun. As soon as evening falls, the day ends with dancing with the best funk, soul and dance hits from the eighties.

Whether you go with friends, family, colleagues or a nice date, a day at TREK is a tasteful and atmospheric afternoon, evening or day out for everyone. All you need is good company, a good appetite and a good mood. Then we will take care of the rest!

See you in the City Park.
