On the Road with Union SG to Twente

When Union Saint-Gilloise travelled to Enschede for their Europa League match against FC Twente, way2events wasn’t tagging along - we were running point. From departure to matchday, we took charge of player-focused logistics: chartered transport on Union’s schedule, a quiet hotel tailored to team routines, secured meeting spaces, and on-site coordination with no room for improvisation. Our role? Make sure the squad could focus on football — and nothing else.

From Brussels to Enschede: no distractions, just purpose

Way2events mapped out the entire operation. Not just getting the team from A to B, but setting the rhythm for a performance. Private transport locked to Union’s matchday timeline. A well chosen hotel just minutes from the stadium. Separate briefing spaces, secure and quiet, for final prep. Meal schedules, downtime, movement — all aligned with what the squad needed.

No noise. No press. No surprises.

Enschede: Built from Ashes, Buzzing with Grit

Tucked in the eastern corner of the Netherlands, Enschede is a city with a story. Once the beating heart of the Dutch textile industry, today it blends a creative edge with a warm, no-nonsense vibe. For those with an eye for culture, the city offers vibrant squares, surprising art in public spaces, and the buzzing Roombeek district - rebuilt after a tragic fireworks explosion in 2000 and now a symbol of resilience. It’s not just where Union came to play. It’s where they briefly walked, ate, rested - and won. Sometimes, a city leaves its mark in small but lasting ways.

De Grolsch Veste was loud. Really loud.

Twente came out swinging — full throttle, front foot, crowd behind them. But Union didn’t blink. They held shape, stayed sharp, and struck with intent. 0–1. No fireworks, no frills — just a textbook away win in a pressure cooker.
In the stands: pure tension. On the sidelines: laser focus. And that morning, back at the hotel: the foundation. Structured rest. Silent prep. Timed meals. Zero chaos.

This is where way2events shows up — not in the headlines, but in the margins. Because we don’t just get you to the pitch. We build everything around it, so when the whistle blows, your team is already one step ahead.
