Every year, the city carilloneur Kenneth Theunissen performs carillon concerts
from the Belfry the whole summer long. From the Sint-Baafsplein, you can enjoy
the concerts and watch them on a screen. There's no need to book.
The programme consists of a nice mix of regulars and new guests who join the
city carillonneur at the carillon to deliver a beautiful concert of ensemble
playing.

Are you driving to Ghent? First check whether you may enter the city centre with
your vehicle. Clean vehicles may enter the city centre free of charge, polluting
vehicles have to pay. Is your vehicle allowed to enter, but do you not have a
Belgian or Dutch number plate? You will ALWAYS have to register!
