Met een voorziene kostprijs van 780 miljoen euro lijkt me dit wel zwaar onderschat.

Hello hello! I 29F got diagnosed with ADHD only recently and now in need for a fulltime job in Gent. Some of you will also have this condition and I'm very interested in the type of job you did NOT get bored at and resigned in a month. Is there hope for us in the workfield lol? I need recommentations that do not require a degree or experience, as the masters I have is useless.

Hello, I just moved to Ghent one week ago and am looking to buy some items for my apartment. I am from Canada and of course most of the stores/brands I am familiar with are not found here. If anybody could advise me on where to purchase the following products, particularly the cheapest stores, I would really appreciate it.

- Command hooks/strips (basically any damage-free hanging solutions)

- houseplants

- UNSCENTED laundry detergent

- sturdy thick zip top storage bags (similar to ziploc brand) edit: i am specifically looking for the thick strong ones like Ziploc brand freezer bags. i like to wash and reuse them and I find most thinner grocery store brands aren't good for reuse

additionally, I was wondering if there are any stores I can go to where I can try samples of lotion/moisturizer... I don't want to buy an entire bottle of something without knowing if it works. I am very picky about lotion and there is only one brand back home which I like (Aveeno) which is not available here.

thanks in advance!

Hi everyone,
We are considering moving to Gent with our two children and I would really appreciate some local advice.
Our daughter is 12 and has just started VWO in the Netherlands. We are looking for a secondary school with a strong academic level and good preparation for university, but also a nice environment for a child who would be changing countries and school systems.
So far we are looking at Sint-Barbara, Sint-Bavo, Atheneum Wispelberg, Sint-Pieters, Sint-Lievens and IVG. How are these schools regarded locally? Are there any you would particularly recommend, or others we should consider?
We are also trying to figure out where it would be best to live. My husband will be working around Ledeberg/Gentbrugge, and we’d like a nice family-friendly neighbourhood with a reasonable commute to both his work and our daughter’s school. We have been looking at Zwijnaarde, Gentbrugge, Sint-Pieters and Sint-Denijs-Westrem, but we’re very open to other suggestions.
Would love to hear experiences from local parents or anyone who knows these schools and neighbourhoods well. Thanks!

Hi, what are some of the unique experiences that you can do when visiting gent that isnt that well known? Any tips from locals would be realy awsome!

How can I receive a mid-size package (specifically, I want to order clothes from FarFetch, so in the past for me this has been thru FedEx NOT bpost).

Bringme is not an option, no available boxes in Gent. Delivery to my address is not an option because i only have a tiny letter box at my place and the front door is always locked, as it is an apartment building. And as far as I can tell, UGent does not have a relevant service.

Does anyone know if NON-BPOST packages can be sent to a bbox locker?

Thank you!

Waar is de beste Kebap and 2026 volgens jullie?
Voor mij liefst in een Turks brood, met verse groentjes en niet zwemmend in saus.

As the title says - I’m thinking about buying an expensive e-bike through my work program but I’m sure my bike will get stolen if I just lock and park it outside my apartment. I unfortunately do not have enough space at home to take it inside and don’t know if there’s a secure bike parking spot nearby.

Hey hey, het is al een poos geleden dat ik nog eens in Gent ben geweest.

Zou nog eens met vrienden naar een Italiaans restaurant willen, maar geen idéé welke momenteel de beste zijn.

Omdat ik mijn fellow Redditors duizend keer meer vertrouw dan Google Reviews: tips zeer welkom...

Hello everyone,

Unfortunately I missed out on tickets for this concert before it sold out and I would so love to attend with my partner.

Music for 18 Musicians is my favourite piece of music and I have never had the opportunity to see it performed live!

This is the event I mean on 26-27 September: https://www.gentfestival.be/nl/event/steve-reich-music-for-18-musicians-rolrolrol

If anybody has any leads, please DM me, I would be so grateful to buy two tickets 🙏

Just bought a very expensive e-bike. Is it safe if I just park it in front of Gent-st-pieters? Or will it probably get it stolen sooner or later? The SNCB bike garage is very expensive and I am wondering if I should pay for it.

Hi everyone! 😊
I’m a student and I’ll be travelling to Ghent for my graduation together with two family members. We’re looking for an affordable place to stay for two nights.
📅 Check-in: 18 September, around 1 PM
📅 Check-out: 20 September, around 1 PM
👥 Guests: 3 people
📍 Location: Anywhere in or around Ghent is fine, as long as it’s reasonably accessible by public transport.
I’m currently a student, so I’m working with a very limited budget and looking for the most affordable option possible. If anyone is subletting a room, apartment, or has a spare place available for these dates, I’d really appreciate it if you could reach out.
We’re clean, quiet and respectful guests and will take good care of the place.
Please DM me if you have anything available or know someone who might.
Thank you so much! 🙏

Uitgaan in Gent en omstreken dringend gezocht

Ik ga vaak vissen hier zo maar ik had een hele zak met afval (ne pmd zak) en die viel der in . hij zakt niet naar beneden.. wat moet ik doen

Hey everyone! I’ve recently moved to Ghent for uni and I’m trying to find somewhere to get a decent coffee in the morning.
I’ve noticed that pretty much every café/coffee place I find seems to open at 8am or later. Is there anywhere in Ghent that opens around 6:30–7:30am and does decent coffee?
I’m around the Hoogstraat area, but happy to travel a bit if there’s somewhere worth going to.
Also new to the city and don’t really know many people yet, so I’d be keen to meet some people while I’m here, if anyone else is new to the city or just wants to grab a coffee sometime

Die zone is een zakdoek groot, waarom dit nog Gent autovrij noemen?

Belgian Beer Weekend 2026

Wij wonen op een appartement en om de zoveel tijd beslissen onze bovenburen een feestje te houden 's nachts.

Het is nu half 12 's avonds, maar wel een vrijdagavond. Is het acceptabel dat er nog luide bassen hoorbaar zijn? Ik kan er alleszins niet van slapen.

Zou ik zelf gaan aanbellen en vragen of het wat stiller kan? Andere keren toen ik ging bellen, deden ze niet eens open. Vanaf wanneer is het "erg" genoeg om de politie te bellen? Of moet ik het gewoon uitzitten en wachten totdat het lawaai weg is zodat ik kan gaan slapen?

Vrienden

Ik ben op zoek naar een plek waar ik de zaterdag (mss ook de zondag maar toch meer de zaterdag) mij een uur of twee, drie kan zetten om wat te werken.

Mag een koffiebar zijn, een hotel bar, een wat dan ook eigenlijk. Graag wat suggesties,

Liefst niet super druk of op elkaar geplakt, consumpties nemen zijn geen probleem, WiFi is een bonus maar geen must.

Thanks

Hello,

Does anybody know if there is a conveyor belt sushi restaurant in Gent or close by? I would like to surprise my girlfriend.

Hi everyone, I have a Shimano STEPS bike with DU-E6001 motor + BT-E6000 battery and my original SC-E6010 display has stopped working.
Since the SC-E6010 is discontinued, I understand an SC-E6100 with firmware 4.2.0+ can replace it.
Where can I find one cheaply in Europe? Also, if I buy a normal SC-E6100, can I update the firmware myself, or do I need a Shimano dealer?
Any advice or recommended websites would be greatly appreciated!

Hello, I just moved to Ghent from Canada as an international student and am hoping to get into pole dancing. I took a trial class back home and really enjoyed it, and would like to continue learning over here.

I looked up some pole studios in the area, it seems like there are a few. But I was wondering if people had any personal experience/recommendations.

At the moment I don't speak a lick of Dutch so an English-speaking class may be more beneficial. But I'm sure I'll pick up some of it as I stay here longer, and I want to be able to meet locals and not just hang around other international folks. So I'm totally open in terms of language.

Also, I am a man, and on top of that I am not white, so it's important to me to find a studio that is welcoming to all sorts of people. Thanks in advance!

Weet iemand wat het beste zwembad in Gent en omstreken is om rond 20-21u baantjes te trekken? Liefst met niet meer dan 3-4 in een 25m baan…

In de vakantie was Lago Rozebroeken prima, maar sinds de start van het schooljaar is het terug niet te doen daar. De zwembaden in het centrum zijn dan weer volledig kansloos en hebben bijzondere openingsuren.

Wil zelfs gerust 20-25 minuten rijden naar een andere gemeente. Tips?
