Saba Casa da Música is the 644-space car park under Porto’s concert hall on Avenida da Boavista, open 24 hours. By day it costs €1.95 for the first hour and €1.70 per hour after that; concert-goers can use a €3 event ticket valid for three and a half hours, and online passes start at about €13 per day. This guide covers the tariffs, the height limit, the metro connection to the centre and the alternatives in the Boavista area.
Driving in? Still choosing a car? Our Porto car rental guide compares the local desks and prices – pick the car first, then park it cheaply with the tips below.
Saba Casa da Música is the concert hall’s own car park: three underground levels (-1 to -3) beneath the building on Avenida da Boavista, next to the Rotunda da Boavista. It is not in the historic centre – the Baixa is a short metro ride away – which is exactly why it is easier to reach by car.
