- City center, on-street
SimplePark knows all 30 parking zones of Tilburg: start your parking action in the app and stop it when you leave. Free parking is available at P+R Station Tilburg Universiteit. Covered parking is available at 013-Tivoli. The municipality checks with parking wardens on the street. The rates come from the municipality and were checked on September 7, 2026. With SimplePark you start and stop the parking action in the app. We charge €0.29 per parking action and €0.29 per top-up or direct debit.
City center or car park
Tilburg makes the choice in the city center simple, and expensive: if you park on-street there, there is only one product and that is the day ticket of 25 euro. Briefly picking something up and paying by the hour is not possible. Outside the city center the on-street rate depends on the location; you can see it on the meter or in your app.
If you are going into the center, you are therefore better off driving straight into a car park. The municipality has eight car parks in and around the center, from 013-Tivoli and Emmapassage to Pieter Vreedeplein, Schouwburg and Spoorzone-Zwijsen. Signs along the approach roads count down how many spaces are still free, so you do not have to search. The car parks are managed by P1, which also handles the season tickets and permits.
Free on the edge: P+R and carpool
If you stay longer or are traveling through, the three P+R sites at the stations are the cheapest: Tilburg Universiteit on Troelstraat, Reeshof Noord on Ketelhavenplein and Reeshof Zuid on Woerdenstraat. All three are free, with over 500 spaces between them. On the edge of the city there are also four free carpool sites, among others on Meierijbaan and at the slip roads of the N65 and the A58.
Mind the low-traffic center. Except between 6:00 and 11:00 in the morning, a large part of the city center is closed to motorized traffic, and cameras record who still drives in. On public holidays the Sunday rules apply.
Enforcement and paying
Municipal parking attendants issue the parking fines (naheffingsaanslagen); the collection agency Cannock sends them to you on behalf of the municipality. You can pay at the meter with a debit card, or on your phone. With SimplePark you start the parking action as soon as you have parked and stop it when you drive off. Outside the city center, where you pay by the hour, you then pay only for the time you were parked, in the steps of the municipal tariff, and you do not have to guess in advance.
