Parking rental in Marseille: your space at a reduced price!

Parking in Marseille isn't easy. The number of on-street parking spaces is shrinking and city traffic is heavy. Marseille also has many car parks that let you park on either side of the city. They're usually located near the main landmarks: Saint-Charles and Blancarde stations, Marseille Provence airport, Orange Vélodrome stadium, Vieux Port, city centre, shopping malls, hospitals, beaches, Calanques... The catch: they can be full! 

Yespark therefore lets you book and rent a space in one of its many underground car parks in Marseille! By choosing a Yespark space, you'll get a spot available at any time!

In Marseille, finding a parking space isn't easy to start with. But finding cheap parking is even harder! In fact, the city is gradually removing many on-street spaces, especially pavement spots or half-on-pavement/half-on-road ones.

So what to do? There are several solutions. You can choose car parks on the outskirts, often cheaper and sometimes even free. But you'll need public transport to reach the city centre. You can also opt for long-term parking. Many underground car parks offer parking subscriptions at competitive rates. With Yespark, enjoy a parking space by the month or by the hour at a competitive price!

If you choose to park in a covered car park or underground car park, prices vary. Some are public, others private and run by operators like Q-Park or Indigo. While the first half hour is often free, expect to pay between €0.80 and €1 per quarter hour of parking.

In some Marseille neighbourhoods, outside the central districts and more on the outskirts, parking is free. From the 9th to the 16th districts, there are free parking spots.

You can also park for free in one of the Marseille park-and-ride car parks, near public transport hubs:

• Parking Louis Armand
• Saint Jérôme
• La Blancarde
• La Rose
• Bougainville
• Rond-Point du Prado
• Parc Chanot

Note that parking in Marseille is not free in August in the usually paid areas!

The Friche Belle de Mai is an entirely pedestrian public and cultural venue. It still has a car park of 86 spaces, the Champ de Mai. As a result, given the limited availability, it can be hard to park nearby. Also, the car park may be closed if a public event is held on the Champ de Mai.

800 metres from the Friche Belle de Mai there's also a Yespark covered car park. Don't hesitate to book your space to easily park in the area!

During the Marsatac Festival, held at Parc Borély, finding a parking space can be particularly hard. The festival gathers over 35,000 festival-goers over 3 days in mid-June.

What about on-street parking in Marseille? In the city's paid zones, parking can be very expensive. The on-street spaces are paid from 9am to 7pm every day, except on Sundays and public holidays. Here are the on-street parking prices in Marseille :

As you can see, the maximum durations are: 

• yellow and orange zones: 4h30
• red lanes: 2h30

Make sure to respect the maximum allowed duration, or you'll expose yourself to the post-parking fixed penalty (FPS) in Marseille! Some rules must also be followed to avoid having your vehicle towed.

For now, parking for powered two-wheelers (motorbikes and scooters) remains free on-street in Marseille. However, several issues arise:

• it's often hard to park on-street by motorbike in Marseille without causing obstructive or abusive parking;
• enforcement officers don't hesitate to carry out punitive operations against these abusive parking practices;
• parking your motorbike or scooter in Marseille exposes you to theft risks.

That's why it's better to opt for an underground car park dedicated to two-wheelers. Yespark offers a wide range of covered car parks suited to your motorbike or scooter in the Phocaean city!

The city has many bike shelters set up by La Métropole Mobilité. This network is free and the bike shelters are located near transport hubs and interchanges. Currently numbering 24, the plan is to reach 80 across the metropolis by 2024, for a total of 3,600 spaces.

These shelters let you park your bike safely and are fitted with lockers (bring your own padlock). They include access control and a CCTV system.

What about EV charging stations in Marseille? The Phocaean city is far from behind on this topic and has even rolled out a real public network. If you have an electric car and want a cost-effective alternative to on-street parking, we have the solution.

Thanks to Yespark, you can rent your private charging station monthly in Marseille, with the parking space included! By combining parking and charging, you'll save significantly and won't have to drive around looking for an available charger!
