Travel suggestions
Arles old town is small and most festival venues can be reached on foot, so transport expenses during the week should be minimal. Major airlines service Marseille airport, which is one hour drive from Arles. Some small airlines service Nîmes airport, which is 20 minutes from Arles (e.g. Ryanair, if flying from UK). Trains connect Arles with Paris. Trains and taxis connect to Marseille and Nîmes.
