    Beluga is the only place I've eaten in Maastricht but it was good - really depends what sort of place you want/ your budget etc

    Can't give any advice, but can say how envious I am. We saw the concert screened live at the cinema last year, and it looked wonderful. All those people sitting in the restaurants surrounding the seating area and stage looked like they were having a most amazing time.


    Can I ask how you go about booking this. We would much rather be a part of this, instead of watching it on a screen.

    OMG you lucky thing, I'm sure you will have a fabulous time!

    I was in Maastricht recently. It's a really lovely place. I took the bus over to
    Aachen in Germany. Short enough journey, and it was great too.

    Just walk around Maastricht. It's the only way to see it right.

    The food is great. Sorry can't remember the names of the restaurants, but they were both on the riverbank, and in the Vrijtus Square. It doesn't matter, you will find plenty of them.

    People are so friendly and full of fun too.

    Oh I wish I was there again.

    My 20yr old niece was studying on Erasmus program there, and I popped over to see her. She snuck me into the Halls of Residence. No problems at all, the staff had a laugh at this quite mature student arriving out of nowhere! My word. The student life now is so much more luxurious than back in my day! But what total fun I had. Absolutely laughed my way through it all.

    I hope you enjoy and I'm sure you will!

    ooooooooooooooo I'm green with envy and hope the sun shines for Andre - it usually does.
    The only advise I would suggest is take plenty of money and have spare cards just in case it's more expensive thank you thought.
    What the heck you only live once, go enjoy and give a whoop for me.
