The Stadhuisplein is one of the most popular places among young Rotterdam residents. Because of the many terraces and bars, it is a busy day and night.
During the day, the square on Coolsingel is full of shopping fanatics. The terraces are also packed with good weather. At night, the vibrant Rotterdam nightlife flourishes. There is no better place for hossers, jumpers and sing-a-longs than Stadhuisplein.
Stadhuisplein is the place to be if Rotterdam's largest football club Feyenoord has to play an important match or is honored? Football fans make it a real popular festival when 'their cluppie' competes for a big prize. The last time Stadhuisplen filled up with tens of thousands of supporters was in May 2017, when Feyenoord became the national champion of the Netherlands for the first time in 18 years. If that happens again, a visit to this square will be an experience to remember. Be there on time, because people are already crowded in front of the gates early in the morning.
The Kruiskade is a stone's throw from the Stadhuisplein. Walk a bit back towards Central Station and suddenly you find yourself in one of the nicest nightlife streets in the city. Partygoers continue until the early hours at De Apres Skihut, Café 't Fust and Club Villa Thalia.
