Exterior of Lille Europe

Lille-Europe is a train station station in Lille, France. This station is primarily used for high-speed Eurostar and TGV services although some regional trains also call at the station.

The station was built in 1993 to be used as a through station for trains between the UK, Belgium and the Netherlands, as well as French TGV services, except those coming from Paris which normally terminate at Lille Flandres.

For travellers who are travelling from the United Kingdom to popular destinations not served directly by Eurostar, connections are available here on trains towards Disneyland Paris, Charles de Gaulle International Airport, Lyon, Valence, then Avignon, Aix-en-Provence, Marseille St. Charles (and also on to Cannes & Nice); or Nîmes, Montpellier and Perpignan.
