When visiting Popcentrum 013 by car, please pay attention to where you park the car, so that you avoid a parking ticket! Parking is very strictly controlled to counteract the additional parking pressure in the neighborhood.
Simply planning your trip with Google, can give you the wrong outcome.

So since the summer of 2019, parking violations are controlled by a ‘scan-mobile’. It’s a small on electric energy driven car, with 360-degree cameras on top. So, Nobody escapes the ‘scan car’. So not paying for parking is playing with fire in Tilburg. The scanning cars which are driving around make the chances of a parking fine very high. So it is better to avoid the risk and prepare to find the right spot to park your car.

Popcentrum 013 in Tilburg is easily accessible by public transport. It is only a short 10-minute walk from Central Station and the route by foot to 013 is really very simple.

If you leave the station, you cross the street at the pedestrian lights and turn left to follow the street which passe in front of the station (the Spoorlaan). Then you walk straight on until you get to a large intersection with traffic lights and on your right have the ice cream parlor “InterMetzo”. Here you turn to the right into the Heuvelring. Take the first opportunity left the Veemarktstraat and follow this street until right after the curve you arrive within 10 a minutes walk, at Popcentrum 013.

As you can see Bed and Breakfast Tilburg Gust van Dijk is just at a stone throw away from Popcentrum 013. Make your visit to your favorite band concert at Popcentrum 013 to a real discovery, stay the night over at our lovely and comfortable B&B. You soon happily discover how nice and lay-back the atmosphere is in our city of Tilburg.

There are three places to park your car, as you drive to Popcentrum 013. I can highly advise you to use one of the car parks to park your car. Note that you need to consider the choice where to park your car upfront, as you drive into Tilburg!

If you plan your route, you can not find these places where you can park your car properly, because Tilburg city-centre has circular one-way traffic regulation. This means that if you are on the wrong side of Popcentrum 013 by car, you can not reach the entrances to the car parks and have to turn back. All parking spots are only accessible via the Spoorlaan, so look close and pay attention that you do not choose to cross the surrounding districts and end up on streets who run to the wrong side of 013. So setting out for the two streets where Popcentrum 013 is located; like the Veemarktstraat and Korte Heuvel, won’t get you there. Both streets are closed to traffic and you won’t be able to reach the car parks. You will end up in one way traffic circulation, which is very frustrating. Especially if you want to reach your concert on time.

If you are driving into Tilburg, follow beltline East /Ringbaan Oost until you reach the railway viaduct, then here, turn left. So you’ll go straight on to the Spoorlaan, now you have three places to park your car:

First option

No, as yet 013 can not sell exit tickets. Note that especially at the Tivoli car-park long queues can occur during a show or concert or after a show or concert at the ticket vending machines.
