Tilburg

My hometown Tilburg is known for its 10-day-long funfair, the largest in the Benelux, held in July each year. The funfair boasts some 250 attractions and rides ranging from rollercoasters and catapults to bumper cars spread across 4.5 kilometres in the city centre. Every year over 1.5 million people visit the fair, making it the most popular event in the Netherlands. The monday during the funfair is called Pink Monday and is one of the biggest gay and emancipation events in the Netherlands.
