Markets and shopping map Ghent for visitors 

There’s so much more to shopping 

in Ghent than this map 

Good idea, citytripping to Ghent. Especially 

when you love shopping! Ghent has Belgium’s 

biggest pedestrianised shopping area with 

loads of markets and shops. The city has all 

the major chain stores as well as authentic 

shops, trendy and more traditional places, 

within walking distance of one another. 

This map guides you to the various shopping 

areas, each with their own personality and 

includes a representative selection of typical 

and distinctive Ghent shops, stores and markets, 

which are original and just a tad different. 

But be sure to follow your own intuition 

and discover the many other surprising boutiques 

and gadget stores in our city. And don’t 

forget to share your experiences with us. 

Trendy Ghent 

This map first and foremost focuses on stores 

that sell authentic products, which are typical 

of Ghent. You won’t find any chain stores in 

this list. 

We also pay attention to those stores that are 

off the beaten path. The kind of stores you 

wouldn’t bump into. 

In the stores on this map you will find gifts, 

clothing (accessories) and souvenirs subdivided 

into eight categories (see below). 

You can also get some great deals in Ghent’s 

markets. Real market fans can enjoy the 

unique atmosphere of five typical Ghent 

markets during the Sunday market walk. 

We have indicated this walk in on the map. 

Exploring the ‘hoods’ 

Just need some inspiration Then why not 

walk from one neighbourhood to the other to 

check out what’s available. 

Langemunt – Veldstraat 

Traditionally the main shopping streets of 

Ghent with branches of small and big chains. 

Onderbergen 

A pleasant, stylish shopping street, which 

runs parallel with Veldstraat, offering a mix 

of qualitative, original fashion, antiques and 

interior design shops as well as some nice 

places to lunch. 

Bennesteeg – Sint-Niklaasstraat 

Fashion for everyone, but especially for children, 

in the streets off Veldstraat. 

Voldersstraat – Hoornstraat 

The widest cross street of Veldstraat. 

A variety of food stores, as well as clothing 

stores selling affordable fashions or couture. 

Henegouwenstraat 

Voldersstraat turns into Henegouwenstraat, 

where the emphasis is on luxury, regardless 

of the store’s speciality. 

Mageleinstraat – Kalandeberg – Koestraat 

Belgian fashions for all ages, but also a nice 

selection of delicatessen and sweet shops. 

Kortedagsteeg – Walpoortstraat – 

Sint-Pietersnieuwstraat 

Mainly fashion, casual chic for everyone, 

sometimes in prestigious settings, such as the 

Xandres flagship store, which was designed 

by Glenn Sestig and the fourteenth-century 

Wool Weavers’ Chapel with the women’s collection 

of McGregor. Streetwear for hipsters 

at one end of Sint-Pietersnieuwstraat and 

around the corner, in Lammerstraat. 

Brabantdam – Vlaanderenstraat – Zuid 

Stylish menswear and women’s fashions and 

original interior design stores. Shopping 

Centre Gent Zuid has all the usual suspects. 

Jan Breydelstraat – Burgstraat 

Definitely the place for you if you love 

bric-à-brac, art and antiques. 

Serpentstraat – Baudelostraat – Oudburg 

Near Vrijdagmarkt is a treasure trove of tiny 

stores which do not really have a common denominator. 

The locals love them and visitors 

to the city also appreciate them! 

Something for 

everyone: 

eight categories 

In order to ensure that you can easily find 

what you are looking for we have subdivided 

the list of shops in the following categories. 

Each category has its own color. 


Tierenteyn mustard, mastellen and several 

other deliciously old-fashion sweets... Oh, the 

choices! For those who prefer a more lasting 

memento to take home, there are souvenirs 

abound. 

Designer fashions 

Ghent is a rising star on the fashion front. 

You can find stores that specialise in exclusive 

designer fashions and accessories 

around Vrijdagmarkt but also in streets that 

are farther afield. Prominent Belgian brands, 

as well as up-and-coming talent from Belgium 

and abroad are given a platform here. 

Made in Ghent: 

fashion by Ghent-based designers 

We already mentioned that Ghent is a rising 

star when it comes to fashion stores but this 

also applies to Ghent’s designers, who present 

their original designs in their own stores, 

which can be found all over the city centre. 

Accessories 

If you are a firm believer in accessorising 

then you will love Ghent. There are speciality 

stores in almost all of the shopping neighbourhoods 

which sell a wide range of designs 

by Belgian and international designers. 

Gifts 

Looking for an original gift but lacking the 

inspiration There are gift shops all over the 

city centre, which will help you solve your 

quandary! 


Hand-knotted rugs, furniture by contemporary 

international designers... you can find 

this and much more in the interior design 

shops in Ghent. Some shops are a little 

farther afield. 

Art, antiques & bric-à-brac 

The many galleries and antique stores in 

Ghent sell modern and contemporary art as 

well as retro design, Western and ethnic art. 

The art and antiques market in Bij Sint-Jacobs 

comes highly recommended. Many an 

antique lover has already walked away with a 

great deal! 

Vintage and retro 

The popularity of old (designer) clothes and 

furniture led to a boom in retro stores. 

Markets 

You often best remember the ‘small experiences’ 

in a city. Ghent is really the place to go if 

you like a taste of what’s on offer, along with 

the locals. The Friday and weekend markets 

also play an important role in colouring your 

experience. 

A Kouter 

If you want to meet the locals then head over 

to the Sunday flower market. Enjoy a delicious 

espresso at La Dolce Barista on arrival 

and end your visit with a fresh oyster and a 

glass of white wine at the Blue Kiosk. 

B Oude Beestenmarkt 

On Sunday morning you will find chickens, 

rabbits and other small pets looking for new 

owners. What a contrast with the atmosphere 

a few hours earlier. Several well-known rock 

bands have their rehearsal spaces above the 

many trendy bars. 

C Bij Sint-Jacobs and Beverhoutplein 

Every Friday, Saturday and Sunday morning 

the bric-à-brac market invades Bij Sint-Jacobs 

square and market stalls turn this square 

into a paradise for treasure hunters. You can 

also browse several stores in the surrounding 

streets if you haven’t found that bargain! 

D Vrijdagmarkt 

This large open market square has been 

buzzing with activity for centuries. Every 

Friday morning and Saturday afternoon 

hawkers peddle their wares here. On Sunday 

early birds literally (!) show off their colourful 

plumage and singing skills. 

E Groentenmarkt 

The small farmer’s market on Friday morning 

mainly sells organic vegetables and fruit. But 

you can also buy bread and organic cheeses 

here. On Sundays local artists sell decorative 

items or other creations here. 

F Ajuinlei 

Book stalls along the water. No, this is not 

Paris. It’s only a small step from flowers to 

books in Ghent on a Sunday morning.
