While you can bring small, non-glass containers of drinks and snacks to the André Rieu concert in Maastricht, it's important to check the specific rules as they usually only allow sealed plastic bottles of water and may have restrictions on the size and type of food you can bring; most people opt to purchase refreshments at the venue before the concert or during the interval.
The concert begins at 9pm and ends just before midnight. You are in for a real spectacle!

Yes. We arrive in Maastricht in the early afternoon and you have plenty of time to explore this quaint Dutch town. Maastricht, a university city on the southern tip of the Netherlands, is distinguished by its medieval-era architecture and vibrant cultural scene. In its cobbled old town, is the Gothic-style church Sint Janskerk, and the Romanesque Basilica of St. Servatius houses a significant collection of religious art. On the banks of the Maas River, bisecting the city, lies futuristic-looking Bonnefanten art museum.
You may wish to make dinner reservations in advance, as the town can be quite busy on concert day. We are unable to make any recommendations, but there are plenty of options to choose from.
If you wish to change for the concert, you are welcome to do so but there is no obligation. You may wish to change in the facilities of a local restaurant or you can use the space onboard your coach by speaking with your Tour Manager.
The concert in July takes places in the town square so is outside. In the event of poor weather and rain, ponchos are available. Umbrellas are not permitted as this restricts the view of the stage for other concert-goers.
