Events between the centre and station
Garage Silvani is outside the ZTL and convenient for walking to Cineteca, MAMbo, Bologna Centrale and the historic centre.
Choose according to the venue
Check the event location and compare walking routes from both garages. San Rocco favours the heart of the historic centre; Silvani makes arrival outside the ZTL and travel towards the station easier.
