Gerland
Concert hall, stadium and riverside park
Gerland is the southern part of the 7th arrondissement, a former industrial area now home to a concert hall, a stadium and a large park. Much of it was shaped by the architect Tony Garnier.
The Halle Tony Garnier, a former cattle market, is now the largest standing concert venue in the Lyon area. The Stade de Gerland, built between 1913 and 1926 to Garnier's plans, now hosts rugby and has four monumental gates listed since 1967.
The Parc de Gerland runs along the Rhône, with a big meadow, a three-hectare garden of 300 plant species and the Maison des Fleurs. In the evening the chromatic garden is lit with coloured light and sound until 22:00.
Getting there
Metro line B stops at Debourg for the Halle Tony Garnier, and tram T1 stops at Halle Tony Garnier itself. Line B and bus 60 also serve the Stade de Gerland stop.
What to see
Start at the Halle Tony Garnier, the former cattle market, then continue to the Stade de Gerland on avenue Jean Jaurès.
The Parc de Gerland is free and open from 6:30 to 20:30 in winter and to 22:30 in summer.
Where to eat and drink
Gerland is mainly an events district, so check the Halle Tony Garnier's own page for food and drink on site before a concert.
Otherwise, bring food into the park or head back to Guillotière.
