‘t Preuvenemint

‘t Preuvenemint is a four-day culinary event on the Vrijthof square in the city of Maastricht. Over thirty stands are put up here and function just like any high quality restaurant. You get the chance to taste delicious food and wine and enjoy a large variety of live music. This makes the Maastricht Preuvenemint the largest open air restaurant in the world.

Gastronomy and Music

The word Preuvenemint is a contraction of the Maastricht words 'preuve' (to taste) and 'evenemint' (event) and these are exactly what you can expect. Maastricht is one of the gastronomic capitals of Europe. During ‘t Preuvenemint you can experience the culinary sensations of some of Maastricht’s best restaurants. Later in the evening, thousands of people gather on Vrijthof square to sing along with the live music on the open-air stage.

Good Causes

The four-day culinary event is a great way to get to know the culture of the province Limburg. It’s free of charge and held yearly in the last full weekend of August. The proceeds of ‘t Preuvenemint are fully donated to good causes.
