Route & Parking

Since de Gelderlandfabriek is located next to Culemborg train station, arriving by train is highly convenient. From the NS station side, you can reach the venue via the stairs at Stationsplein or Parking Lot 1—both routes are marked with yellow arrows on the map.
- Parking Lot 1 and Parking Lot 3 are the most convenient options. However, please note that they may fill up quickly in bad weather!
- Parking Lot 2 has designated spaces for visitors with reduced mobility. Other guests may also park here or in Parking Lot 6, but due to another event taking place, these spots may be occupied.
- Parking Lot 4 and Parking Lot 5, located on the opposite side of the station, can be accessed via the railway tunnel. Please note that you will need to check in and out using an OV-chipkaart or a contactless payment card.
Feeling hungry?
Inside De Gelderlandfabriek, you’ll find Restaurant Una Volta, serving delicious antipasti, (gluten-free) wood-fired pizzas, and pasta dishes.
