Do you have your tickets for the next big concert at the Zénith de Strasbourg Europe ? Whether it’s for an international star, a comedy show or a musical, the evening promises to be memorable. But there is a shadow in the picture that all regulars know well: access and parking.
The traffic jams on the A351 in Eckbolsheim, the huge but saturated car park, and above all, the hour wasted trying to get out of your parking space at the end of the show… Don’t let logistics ruin your fun. VTC Strasbourg DMD offers you a VIP alternative: leave your car in the garage and opt for a shuttle with a private driver.
1. The nightmare of the Zenith car park (and how to avoid it)
The Zenith can accommodate up to 12,000 people. Imagine 4,000 cars trying to exit at the same time through the same bottlenecks at 11:00 p.m. It’s inevitable: it’s jamming.
By choosing a VTC to go to the Zenith, you benefit from a privilege: the Drop-off.
- On the outward leg: Your driver will drop you off as close as possible to the entrance to the forecourt. You don’t have to walk 15 minutes from the bottom of the muddy parking lot.
- On the way back: We agree on a strategic meeting point to recover you quickly and leave the area before the bulk of the traffic.
2. Enjoy the evening (and the refreshment bar) without risk
A concert is a moment of celebration. This is an opportunity to drink a beer or a glass of champagne with friends before the show or during the intermission.
With a private driver, the question “Who drives home?” no longer arises.
- Security: You return with a sober and rested professional driver.
- Licence saved: Police checks are frequent at roundabouts at the exit of the Zenith on nights of big events. Don’t take any chances.
3. The Van VTC solution for groups of friends
We rarely go to see a concert alone. Are you going with 4, 5 or 6 people?
Rather than taking two cars (and looking for two parking spaces), book our Mercedes V-Class Van.
- Conviviality: The debriefing of the concert begins as soon as you get into the van. Music, space, comfort.
- Economy: By dividing the price of the fare by 6 or 7 passengers, the fare per person is often only slightly more expensive than the tram, with the added benefit of “Luxury” comfort.
4. Fixed Price vs Taxi Meter: Don’t Pay for Traffic Tickets
This is a crucial point. If you take a classic taxi at the end of the concert and get stuck in the traffic jams of Eckbolsheim for 30 minutes, the meter keeps ticking. The bill can be steep.
At VTC Strasbourg DMD, the price is fixed at the time of booking. Even if it takes us a long time to get out of the Zenith area because of the crowds, you don’t pay a euro more. This is the guarantee of a controlled budget for your evening.
5. How to book your Zenith shuttle?
On the evenings of major concerts (such as Mylène Farmer, Indochine, Stromae, etc.), demand is explosive in Strasbourg. Uber and taxis are often nowhere to be found or apply 3x fare increases.
Our expert advice: Book your round trip at least 24 to 48 hours in advance.
- Indicate the start time of the show for the outward journey.
- For the return, we usually follow the end of the concert, but plan to be picked up about 20 to 30 minutes after the theoretical end of the show (the time to leave the venue).
The show doesn’t wait!

FAQ: Coming to the Zénith de Strasbourg by VTC
Where does the driver pick me up at the end of the concert?
As the forecourt is full of people, we usually agree on a precise and quieter meeting point (for example towards the Campanile hotel or a landmark near the P3 car park) to quickly get you out of the crowds. Your driver will contact you via SMS.
What if the concert ends later than planned?
Don’t panic. When booking, we take into account a margin. In addition, you can communicate with your driver. We know that artists’ “recalls” can last!
How much does it cost to get from the city centre to Zénith?
