THE Durham Lumiere is set to return tomorrow for four days of artwork, food and stalls - and here's where you can park.

From Thursday right through to Sunday, Durham City will be transformed into a live exhibition with thousands expected to attend.

Naturally, car parks across the city - including many multi stories - may fill up fairly quickly, so organisers are suggesting Park & Ride is the best way to travel.

We've put together a short guide on where you can park your car - including how much it costs and for how long.

Belmont Park and Ride site

People travelling from Sunderland, Gateshead and Newcastle, will likely use this park and ride station for the Lumiere as it is close to the A1 junction 62 sliproad.

Address: Belmont, DH1 1SR

Howlands Farm Park and Ride site

People travelling from Spennymoor, Bishop Auckland and Weardale, will likely use this park and ride for the Lumiere as it is close to the A177 at the A167 roundabout.

Address: Howlands Farm, DH1 3DE 

Sniperley Park and Ride site

People travelling from East Durham, parts of Sunderland, will likely use this park and ride for the Lumiere as it is close to the A167/A691 roundabout.

Address: Sniperley, DH1 5AA 

The Northern Echo:

How much does it cost and when is it open?

The Park and Ride costs £2 per person and is free for those with a concessionary pass user and those under 16s accompanied by an adult.

Regular services will run to and from each of the three sites into the city centre until 11.30pm each night.

Lumiere bosses have confirmed that none of the sites will be closed during the festival, meaning they will be open round the clock over the four days.
