DRIVING If you are coming from the direction of the airport or North of the city, take the A55 towards Marseille and follow signs for the city centre. Once you are on this road, it shouldn’t take longer than 25 minutes. The address is as follows: 3, Boulevard Michelet, 13008 Marseille Car Parks There is a reasonable amount of on site parking located north of the ground which is available to use on matchdays at the price of a few euros. TRAIN Gare de Marseille Saint-Charles (Often just called Marseille Saint-Charles) is the main train station of the city and is one of the main terminal stations for TGV in the South of France. This means that it is well connected to the rest of the country; you can reach Paris away in three hours for example and Lyon in just over 90 minutes. METRO Marseille has a marvellous metro system operated by Régie des transports de Marseille (RTM), and the city is served by two simple lines: Blue (Line 1) and Red (Line 2). To get to the stadium hope on to the red line 2 southbound, and look to get off at either Rond-Point du Prado (West of the Stadium) or Sainte-Marguerite Dromel (East). Both will leave you with a walk less than 5 minutes to the ground, it really is that easy. Rond Point du Prado Metro Station Rond Point du Prado Metro Station – the closest stop to Stade Velodrome. BUS The train station Marseille Saint-Charles is also the main bus station of the city, but there’s no information offered as to what bus lines can take you there. Don’t worry though, the Metro is much easier. AIRPORTS The main airport for the city and the Alpes-Côte d’Azur region is Marseille Provence Airport which is located in Marignane. Approximately 27 km northwest of the city centre and Stade Vélodrome, the airport is the 5th busiest in France and the only non-Parisian one in the country which flies to the United States. Once you have landed you can get to Marseille by taking either the shuttle bus service, a taxi or train. All options should take you no more than 30 minutes.
