The stairs before the town hall are a well-known gathering place in Utrecht. Usually with sun and free music. Which provides entertainment and liveliness at this place.
Even more entertaining at this place is the interaction of the promotion teams / sales teams and the city visitors. The city visitor, who does not feel like a conversation and promotion team looking for victims. Both play a leading role in dance with the aim of getting around each other or meeting each other.
If the promotion team wins then I see the city visitor listening to the promotion talk and thinking how fast can I flee, while the promotion team finally has someone and thinks let me take the time.
Sometimes the city visitor wins then the dance is even better, because the promotion team does not give up and goes in pursuit or involves a new victim in the dance. This is the dance of infinity supported by steps, words, gestures and a smile. A dance that continues in its own rhythm with highs and lows until closing time.
