- Consider cycling or using public transport to reach De Ceuvel, as parking is limited and can be expensive.
- Check the weather and dress in layers, as parts of the market are outdoors and you'll want to enjoy the cozy fireside seating.
- Bring your furry friends! The market is pet-friendly, but ensure your pet is comfortable around other animals and follow staff guidance.
