by car
Jazz à la Petite France encourages carpooling: ecological, economical, and great for meeting new people. Driving and parking in the city centre is difficult. Better to park in a parking lot outside the centre and come to the festival by tram or bus.
Vél'hop bike rental stations are located in the central train station and at the Porte de l'Hôpital tram stop (among others).
