Bruis

How do you travel to Bruis?

In the weekend of 1-3 September, the Sphinx Quarter and the Muziekgieterij will be the location for the Bruis music festival. We inform you how to get to the festival.

On foot or by bicycle

Visiting the festival site on foot or by bike? You'll find bicycle racks at the Muziekgieterij and the Pathé. Would you like to park your bike under cover and with supervision? Then park your bike in the free indoor bike park on the Market Square. From there it is a maximum of 10 minutes walk to the Muziekgieterij. The supervised bike park on the Kesselskade is a 15-minute walk away.

Festival Bruis is easily accessible by train and bus. From Maastricht Central Station, you can walk to the city center in 10 to 20 minutes. Or you can take a shared bike from Arriva or OV-fiets. There is an Arriva station on the Boschstraat, close to the Pathé cinema.
