Directions to our car park in Como

Address: Via Bellini 21, 22100 Como, Italy. Or click on the map above: it will guide you to us.

Limited traffic zone (ZTL)

Access is from Via Bellini, where the queuing lane is. The car park is outside the ZTL: you can reach it without passing any ZTL gate, so no risk of fines.

Access rules

One single gate for entry and exit: enter only on green. A red light means a car is leaving.
Wait your turn in the queuing lane on Via Bellini at the stop line. Anyone attempting to enter through the entry gate on a red light is automatically barred for 24 hours, without being able to park.

How to exit

Please pay for your stay at the automatic pay stations before driving into the exit lane (EasyPark Camera Park users pay via the app). Prepaid card holders must have active credit on their card before driving into the exit lane.
Driving into the exit lane without having paid is strictly prohibited: it causes queues at the exit and prevents customers waiting outside from entering the car park.
Automatic exit: the exit barrier opens automatically thanks to number-plate recognition. Please approach the exit column slowly.
Please stop for two seconds at the entry column and at the exit column so that your number plate can be read.
If your number plate is not read at the exit, please scan your paid entry ticket at the exit column.

⚠️ Car park rules

🚗 Reserved car park: access is permitted only to cars with a maximum length of 5 metres. Motorcycles, campervans and bicycles are not admitted.
🚭 Smoking is strictly prohibited throughout the car park for fire safety reasons. Offenders will be subject to the penalties provided for by law.
🚻 The car park has no toilet facilities.
⛔ The Teatro Sociale is a historic site. Anyone found using the area as an open-air toilet will be immediately removed from the car park together with their car, reported to the public security authorities in accordance with the law and permanently barred from the car park. They will also be invoiced for the cost of sanitising the area.
📱 Stays of more than 24 hours are permitted only if notified in advance by SMS to +39 338 4454556 📞. The SMS must state the car’s number plate. This notice is required for safety reasons: it allows the car park to be cleared in an emergency and the customer to be traced.
↔️ We simply ask you to park your car straight, within the white lines, so that no cars are damaged.

♿ Accessibility

The car park has a pedestrian gate with a ramp, accessible by wheelchair, for people with disabilities to enter and leave. The pedestrian access for wheelchair users and people with disabilities is on Via Indipendenza, about 50 m away, as shown by the signs.

About us and our location

Parcheggio Arena del Teatro Sociale is located directly behind the Teatro Sociale di Como, an Italian historic monument built in 1813 and opened in 1813. It lies within the walled city, home to around a thousand shops. The street market, held on alternate days, is about a 10-minute walk away, and Lake Como, with its charming lakeside promenade, is just 5 minutes away.
