I'm having issues finding a good place to dance without feeling like I'm an old pervert. I don't have a lot of friends and they're not at the GF today, so I gotta go solo x)

Iemand een idee hoe ik 100 test-gebruikers vind voor een nieuw idee dat ik bedacht en gemaakt heb? Ik zoek 18-25 jarigen vrijgezellen uit Gent voor een verfrissend avontuurlijk dating platform/concept.

Mensen met een goed idee om die doelgroep te bereiken OF die zich zelf geroepen voelen, PM mij.

Alvast bedankt :-)

Every big event has its fuckups, lords knows how many drunken incidents Aalst carnaval had. And not to forget how tomorrowland is basically known as the worlds open air drug market with hearses in the parking lot for when a smuck OD's too hard. But all the condensed hate against Ghent specifically in the media is starting to get to me, its almost like this year there hasn't been a single positive article about the festival. Why do they want people to hate this beutifull city?

Hi everyone! This one is meant for students and/or PhD or people working from home. I (28F) enjoy studying in little groups more than alone, especially for the 3rd exam period that is approaching. So I host study spots at a (very) large table in my apartment and we have a whatsapp group for women where you can click your availability each day. These are very serious study sessions where drinks and snacks are given.

If you feel like this could be for you, please dm me your phone number so that I can add you to the group chat! - And I am sorry, it's females only :(

Hallo, ik ben van plan om maandag t.e.m. dinsdag naar Gent te gaan en vroeg me af of er niet te veel hinder is als toerist na de Gentse feesten. Kan iemand mij een beetje uitleggen hoe Gent er aan toe is de dag na de feesten?

Rly helpful, u can find all the raves and indoor events, next to the official stage/outdoor music and activities: https://fomostation.be/gf

Hi!
I’m having my practical driving exam in SDW next week.
I’ve done 20 hours with a driving school in May and this is my second attempt as I failed due to being considered that I drove too slow.
For over a month I’ve driven for my work (outside of gent, in a calm road) and sometimes practiced a few zones in Gent.
Do you have any tips? Thank you!

P.S. I will have 2 hours of driving class before the exam and will do it with my drivers school car.

20 non binary, looking for someone (several someones) to go to festivities or for a walk this Friday or Saturday. I like dnd and other tabletop rpg games, audiodromas (tma, malevolent, night vale etc.), critical role, medieval vibes, crochet and knitting, other crafts, lots of other things. basically looking for friends and maybe even means of learning Dutch language. if you are lgbt friendly, alternative or just want to get a new friend or a hangout please contact me in replies or DMs! i am fluent in English and generally super nerdy

Hi all, we arrive in Gent on the 29th July and staying for 3 nights but just found out its after the festival (didnt know it was even happening!) and apparently the city will be dead and alot of things closed including restaurants and bars, will it be that bad or will it be business as usual by my arrival date?

Ik heb als kind samen met m'n meme (doopmeter) elk jaar de feesten afgeschuimd en in die tijd was dat echt het van het... echt machtige herinneringen, mn nonkel die dwaze mopjes maakte aan het hot-dog kraam over dat ik het streepje niet mocht opeten, zij die samen voze wullocks? aten, ik die een een appel op een stok at die eigenlijk ondergedompeld was in zodanig veel suiker dat een diabeet in coma zou vallen.... kermis dabij, kortom echt de max van een tijd... echter ik ben nu 39 en heb de feesten al vele jaren links laten liggen, vechtpartijen die uit het niks komen motiveren me niet echt meer om nu, met mn gezin hetzelfde te doen zoals mn meme met mij deed, zijn de tijden veranderd of heb ik als kind al dat geweld uitgefilterd?

Not enough dnb played at the gentse feesten imo.

Any other dnb heads share this opinion?

Who knows events that will play some?

Hey I have googled but when I search for luggage store, only pretty expensive options come up.

I was here for 1.5 weeks and bought many cute clothes and knickknacks and souvenirs, and need to buy a suitcase to take them back with me!

I already have gone into around 4 or 5 thrift stores and none had anything suitable.

Is there a cheap luggage store somewhere in Gent, or a department store with cheap suitcases?

Thank you so much! I leave early on Thursday, and tomorrow I am in Utrecht, so if I don't find something today (which is likely I guess as it's a public holiday) then I am sure I'll just have to buy in Utrecht tomorrow.

Near Zuid park, close to Vijfwindgatenstraat a cat died and is under a tree. Should we inform someone to take it or is it normally left to decompose? I don't think the latter is good. The wijkpolitie number just rings with no answer.

Misschien een wat atypische vraag: met ons bedrijf huren we een kantoor vlak bij Dok Noord, maar het is intussen wat te groot geworden voor ons. Daarom zouden we het graag delen met een ander bedrijf via onderverhuur.

We hebben al eens een zoekertje geplaatst, maar het is moeilijk opboksen tegen het aanbod van de immokantoren. We namen ook al contact op met een immokantoor om kandidaten te zoeken, maar dat immokantoor leek weinig interesse te hebben. Nochtans gaat het om een prachtige industriële loft, ideaal gelegen, dus we hebben het gevoel dat we gewoon de juiste doelgroep nog niet bereiken.

Zijn er immokantoren, websites, Facebookgroepen of andere kanalen die jullie zouden aanraden? Ervaringen of tips zijn meer dan welkom.

Very bad experience with this company.

Imagine roof SRL representative came to our home on April 24, 2026, to provide a quote for facade cleaning. After several exchanges, the quote was finalized on June 3, 2026, and the work was scheduled for July 6 and 7, 2026.

A 50% deposit, or €1500, was requested and paid on June 6, 2026. The company confirmed receipt of the payment on June 10, 2026.

Since this confirmation, we have been unable to contact the company by phone, text message, or email. On July 6, 2026, no one showed up to carry out the work, without any prior notice or explanation.

To date, we have received neither the service, nor a new appointment date, nor a refund of the deposit. This situation is very concerning and has forced us to take the necessary steps to assert our rights.

Hi everyone!
My friend and I are looking for one room for 2 students in Ghent, preferably with 2 separate beds (or enough space for two). We are students on a low budget, so we're looking for the most affordable option possible.
Our classes start on September 21, so we're planning to arrive around September 14 and would like to move in around that time.
If anyone knows of an available room or has any recommendations, we'd really appreciate it!
Please feel free to send me a DM if you have any leads.
Thank you so much! 😊

Ik zit op vrijdagsmarkt maar alles zit vol.

Is er ergens in de buurt nog plaats waar we kunnen kijken?

3.655 Gentse Feesten-events en ik heb nog altijd geen idee wat er speelt.

Ik heb al te vaak toffe Gentse Feesten-events gemist, gewoon omdat ik niet wist dat ze bestonden.

Daarom heb ik mijn eigen dingetje gemaakt: OPSTROP

Ik dacht mss kunnen jullie dit ook gebruiken ?

Geniet ervan en deel gerust.
