Avignon offers three street‑parking zones with different rates, totalling around 2,500 rentable spaces.
Orange zone inside the historic walls uses a progressive pricing to encourage short stays. The first hour is cheap to support city‑centre merchants, but longer stays become pricey: €0.20 per 15 min for the first hour, then €0.30 per 15 min. About 140 meters‑high parking meters enforce payment.
Yellow zone surrounds the old town as a buffer, promoting alternative mobility. Parking is free for up to 4 hours; beyond that it costs €0.20 per 15 min. A daily pass is €6, and during peak season free shuttle services are offered.
Green zone is geared toward shoppers: the first 15 minutes are free, then a charge applies.
During the Avignon Festival, handy tips are available for getting around from the parking guide.
Parking from Private Owners
The rise of collaborative parking lets you rent a spot from a local resident, whether by the hour or for longer periods. It’s cheaper and more convenient, saving you a significant amount when you need to park.
Prendsmaplace.fr lists many vacant spots across Avignon’s zones. Prices vary by neighbourhood, but private rentals typically cost 30‑50 % less than daily municipal rates.
