The city’s authorities took action and turned once an abandoned area into a modern entertainment hub. The city’s center was already too busy at that time and there was not enough space for all restaurants and shops. Currently, this is a beloved destination for young people and shopaholics. In 2014 and 2015, Venlo won the honorable title of the Best City Centre. Vleesstraat is one more popular shopping destination in the city. One will see shops by many international brands along that street. All fans of sneakers and other trendy footwear are welcome at Calico Jack. This spacious shop in the heart of Venlo offers a fantastic selection of footwear, from classy to futurist ones.
Even though shops can close quite early in Venlo, that doesn’t mean that everyone is ready to sleep. The city’s nightlife can please even experienced travelers. A theatre, two cinemas, a music podium, and a church transformed into a performance area are always ready to impress their guests. If you are not interesting in dancing, there are many bars that work till late at night. Finally, there are wine bars where guests can relax, sipping their favorite drink.
Preuf & Praotlokaal de Klep is, without a doubt, a unique venue. It is open in the Domani Monastery in Keizerstraatje. The bar has its own micro-brewery that produced two sorts of monastery beer. There is also a fantastic selection of specialty beers. The atmosphere of this venue is so special that Preuf & Praotlokaal de Klep was voted number 4 in the Top 100 National Bar Ranking.
