There are two car parks at the Cité Internationale (P1 and P2).
 

Car park P2 is the closest to the Amphithéâtre 3000.
This car park is the preferred choice of most people who come to the Amphithéâtre 3000, so the waiting time to get in and out of the car park (and payment at the cashier's desk) can be relatively long.

Car park P1 is just 4 minutes' walk from the entrance to the Amphithéâtre 3000.

The Amphithéâtre 3000 is served by several public transport network (TCL) lines:

C1 bus from Lyon Part Dieu Station - Cité internationale | Centre de Congrès stop

C2 bus from Lyon Part Dieu Station - Cité internationale | Transbordeur stop

C4 bus from Jean Macé metro station - Cité internationale | Centre de Congrès stop

C5 bus from Cordeliers metro station - Cité internationale | Centre de Congrès stop

C26 bus from Grange Blanche metro station - Cité internationale | Transbordeur stop

Bus 70 from Lyon Part Dieu Station - Cité internationale | Transbordeur stop

When queuing, Persons with Reduced Mobility or Disabled Persons should inform the security staff of their situation in order to obtain priority access to the theatre hall.

The hall staff will show you to your reserved seats. We have 30 places available for persons with disabilities. These PRM places must be specifically reserved when purchasing your tickets. If a prior reservation has not been made, we cannot guarantee a PRM space will be available on busy evenings.
Access is free for guide dogs and companion dogs.

The doors generally open one hour before the start of the concert/show.

Access to the hall and specific numbered seats cannot be guaranteed if spectators arrive after the scheduled starting time of the show and no refund shall be given in this case.

When the "Vigipirate" (French national anti-terrorism alert) plan is in force, the contents of bags are systematically checked. This measure is compulsory when the plan is activated. Everyone is required to undergo a security check at the entrance to the establishment. This involves a pat-down search by specialised staff.
Anyone who refuses to comply with the control measures shall be refused entry to the Amphithéâtre 3000 or removed from the premises.

Visitors carrying bulky objects shall not be granted access to the Amphithéâtre 3000. This includes items such as suitcases, rucksacks, shopping bags and other bags or luggage whose volume is greater than 10 litres.
 

It is also forbidden to bring any objects into the premises that could be used as a projectile or pose a danger to the spectators/visitors or artists. This notably includes weapons and ammunition of any kind, tear gas canisters, knives and sharp objects; explosive, flammable or volatile substances; alcoholic beverages, illegal substances, glass or plastic bottles with corks.

Depending on the show, the above list of forbidden items may be supplemented with additional items.

These items shall be automatically confiscated by the security/safety staff at the entrance to the Amphithéâtre 3000 and then deposited in the left-luggage office, except in the case of aluminium cans and glass bottles, which shall be disposed of in the waste bins.

Note: in order to guarantee the safety of everyone, a left-luggage office is available for helmets and bulky items that are not allowed in the Amphitheatre hall.
All items deposited in the left-luggage room shall remain under the responsibility of their owners. The Security Staff cannot be held responsible for any loss or damage to the items deposited.

However, there is no on-site cloakroom.

No recordings (sound, video, photo) may be made in the theatre hall before, during and after the concert/show without the prior written agreement of the production team or the artist. This applies to all recordings/photos, whether taken with or without a flash. Anyone caught making a recording shall have their camera/device confiscated.

F&B services (sandwiches, salads, snacks, drinks, desserts) are available on the 1^st floor of the Amphithéâtre 3000 before the start of concerts or shows and during the interval. 

It is forbidden to bring food or drink into the premises from outside the venue.

Spectators can obtain protective ear plugs free of charge from the bar at the Amphithéâtre 3000.

Appropriate headsets can be provided to protect the hearing of young children. If you need such equipment, please ask for these devices at the left-luggage office at the entrance. Protective headsets/earplugs are provided in exchange for a valid ID card or a €20 deposit and must be returned at the end of the concert/show.

For safety reasons (including potential hearing damage), children under the age of 3 shall not be allowed in the theatre hall.
