Overview
Monaco's compact terrain and steep hillsides mean most parking is provided through underground public car parks rather than surface spaces. The Principality operates approximately 16 public car parks managed by Monaco Parkings, a government-supervised entity.
Real-time availability for all facilities is displayed on electronic panels throughout Monaco and on the official website parkings.mc.

Rates and subscriptions
Hourly rates in public car parks typically start from around 1.50 EUR per hour, varying by location and time of day.
Resident subscriptions are available for Monaco residents who need regular parking access. Applications are handled through the Monaco Parkings customer service portal. Priority is generally given to residents of the immediate neighbourhood.
Monapass cardholders can link their parking subscription to the integrated mobility card, combining bus travel, parking, and other transport services in a single account.
During major events (Grand Prix, Yacht Show, etc.), parking restrictions change significantly and some car parks may close or operate under modified hours. Check parkings.mc for event-specific updates.
Electric vehicle charging
EV charging points are available in several public car parks and the network is being expanded as part of Monaco's environmental and energy transition commitments.
Motorcycles and scooters
Dedicated two-wheel parking zones exist throughout Monaco, often free or at reduced rates. These are separate from the main underground car parks.
