Parking in Lille

Getting around Lille easily

To make the most of your visit, we recommend parking on the outskirts of the city centre. Many nearby car parks offer quick access to the heart of Lille, either on foot or by public transport.

The city centre is very well connected: 

  • Metro (Lines M1 and M2): Rihour, République Beaux-Arts, Lille Flandres / Lille Europe train stations, and Gambetta (Wazemmes district).
  • Bus: numerous routes also serve the area.

To plan your journey, visit the ilévia website or app.
