Stayed in LLoret a few times for the Wire matches, we rent a car so transport to Perpignan isn't a problem. There is a good motorway network from around Gerona up to Perpignan which is about 80 miles so should take about 90 mins. Lloret has a big bus station so maybe there are connections to the trains or maybe get an organised bus pickup from the airport, Gerona I assume.

There is a train service that serves the Costa Brava, you will have to get a Barcelona train for 3 or 4 stops, get off and change for the Mille/ Montpellier train.. kinda goin back on yourself but it is dead easy quick and comfortable, i cant remember the station names but if you google the information you will find a train network map and youll see where you need to change... So much better and easier than Driving. Check it out

Did it last year, it's an absolute hole in my opinion. I'd much rather book a hotel on the beach outside Perpignan.

Hopefully in April it'll be no where near as busy as peak.

Thanks to everyone for the replies

avoid lloret like the plague. it's a hole!
fly to girona and you can get the train stright to perpignan from girona city. girona itself is lovely and well worth a visit for a couple of days.

if you're planning a short trip why not join the party in canet plage, then it will be easy to watch the match

I hope you are my mother, I would be astounded to find another granny trump anywhere in the world, let alone wigan

You could always stay in Barcelona and get the train to Perpignan on the day of the game. We did it last year. Stayed 2 days in Barca, got the train, 2 days in Perpy then back to Barca to fly home. The train costs about £60 each but there was no hassle. Just do a search on raileurope.co.uk Plus, Barcelona's a lovely city to spend a few days. HTH

Once stayed in Tossa De Mar - Honest, no joke - It's just round the corner from Llorret - DONT GO THEIR, its full of SPAINISH

xenophobia and bad spelling in the same post.

Yeah but I would expect it to be full of Spanish seeing as its in Spain.

If you ask me, all the more reason to go there, to get away from British hooligans.
