This year, with the double edition, Hellfest is setting up a new official and free parking system to facilitate the circulation and to prevent wild parks in Clisson.
2 official and free parking are now available :
The parking addresses will soon be available on Google Maps and Waze. When you arrive at the checkpoint, follow the signs “PARKING FESTIVAL” set up by our teams.
Camping-cars and converted vehicles are only authorized within the official car parks zones. They must respect the parking rules of our volunteers team (the famous “Guardians of the Street”)
Tents, campfires, arbors and other camping structures are strictly forbidden on the parking.
WARNING : Parking outside of these official car parks zones will not be tolerated, the police will punish those who will be in violation of the law on the public road (fine and removal of the vehicle by the pound)
The Clisson bypass will be closed. All vehicles located in this area before Wednesday, June 15, will be impounded immediately!
A shuttle service is available from the train station of Clisson or the Nantes airport / train station to the festival site
Shuttles
This year again, MonAmiligo transports are partners of Hellfest for the implementation of official shuttles.
Attention : For the journeys from and to the Nantes train station, the use of SNCF trains – faster and more economical – is to be preferred. Shuttles from the Nantes train station will be set up when the trains are no longer running.
In Clisson station, shuttles will be available without reservation at each train arrival. At the end of Hellfest, shuttles will be available without reservation, for the return trip to the Clisson train station.
Reservations available soon.
