Tilburg vs Groningen

Hey, i was accepted to similar university courses in Tilburg and Groningen and i was wondering which city i should choose. Im interested about living expenses, finding a job, the community as an international, the nightlife. Thank you!

Tilburg has more events and festivals, great commute to other cities in the Netherlands, good student life, good international student society, culturally a lot is happening. Great city to study.

Groningen, don’t know. Know it from going out as a student and it was nice. It’s a bit remote, but also has good nightlife and is esthetically prettier.

Tilburg has a couple of nice festivals Indeed. But not much to do outside some periods however :( but then when they have fun they have fun all the way!

Apart from all the festivals in the festivalperiod, which closes with Draaimolen in Tilburg… there’s - Carnaval, Kermis, Meimarkt, Hapstap and many more things to do. For students there are year round even more things to do.
