What’s Tilburg Like in March?

March in Tilburg marks the transition from winter to spring. Average daily temperatures typically range from 2°C (36°F) to 11°C (52°F), making for cool, often crisp, weather. You can expect around 40-60mm of rainfall spread over 10-15 days, so waterproof outerwear is advisable. Sunshine averages 3-4 hours per day, with cloudy skies common. Winds can be breezy, adding to the chill.

What Are Typical Costs and Availability in March?

March is generally considered shoulder season in Tilburg. Accommodation availability is usually good, with prices for a mid-range hotel estimated to be in the range of €70-€150 per night. Public transport, such as train tickets within the Netherlands, has fixed prices. Casual meals at restaurants typically cost €15-€25 per person, while a coffee might be €3-€5. Availability for attractions and restaurants is high, and booking far in advance is rarely necessary outside of specific events.

What to Expect (Crowds, Events, Conditions)?

Crowds in Tilburg during March are typically lower than in the peak summer months. The city feels less bustling, offering a more relaxed experience. Conditions are cool and often damp, so dress in layers and bring waterproof clothing. While dates vary annually, if Carnaval (locally known as Kruikenstad) falls in early March (e.g., March 2-4, 2025), expect a lively, crowded atmosphere with many local celebrations. Otherwise, March is generally a quieter month for events.

What Are the Best Activities for March?

Given the variable weather, a mix of indoor and outdoor activities is ideal. Explore indoor attractions like the De Pont Museum of Contemporary Art or the Natuurmuseum Brabant. The LocHal, a former locomotive shed transformed into a public library and meeting space, is perfect for a warm and engaging visit.
