Practical information

01

Access and parking

Access to the city center of Lausanne is not always easy due to the high density of traffic on the main arteries of the city center. We strongly recommend that festival-goers use public transportation. However, there are a few parking lots close to the festival. We also recommend consulting the train timetables to and from Lausanne, which has a station that is generally well served. To get to Montbenon Park, an information office located in Lausanne train station will be happy to advise you on how to get there in less than 10 minutes on foot.
