How do I reach MECC Maastricht?

From Eindhoven

With the opening of the Koning Willem Alexander tunnel, MECC Maastricht is even more accessible. On the A2 take exit 53+54 (N2). Then take exit 53 in the tunnel tube. At the T-junction, turn left onto the N278. Then take the 2ndth exit (direction Ceramique – Wyck). At the roundabout, take the second exit (left), and then turn left again into the 2de street. At the T-junction you turn left again, after which you only have to keep following the road to the right to finally turn right into the garage under the crossing.

From the direction of Liège: 

Take exit 56 (Gronsveld-MECC). Then follow the ANWB signs marked MECC. These will show you the way to the parking areas of MECC Maastricht.
