City of Groningen
Where many cities turn down a gear in winter, Groningen turns it on. From winter activities and bars and restaurants to quirky culture and a nightlife without closing times: raw, creative and a bit headstrong. Visit the city festival Winter Gold: street food from local entrepreneurs, live acts and surprises on every street corner. Or immerse yourself in the European music scene, as Eurosonic Noorderslag celebrates its fortieth edition. In short, Groningen is asking to be discovered this winter. City with (egg) balls? Sounds like Groningen.
