Here’s the plan…
You don’t have to be a professional athlete to run around the Stade De France these days. This tour starts with a visit to the stands to take in the view. Beautifully designed and with a seating capacity of more than 80,000, you’re sure to snap a nice panorama or two at France’s largest stadium.
Then it’s onto the locker room, where the world’s most famous athletes often prepare for their games. Experience the ultimate sporting moment on your walk (okay, run) through the tunnel to the arena, like so many legends have done before you. Along the way your local guide will fill you in on the stadium’s history, its unique architecture (Stade de France is the biggest modular stadium in the world) and the stories of the people who frequent the pitch, both athletes and performers.
Your guide leads you to Stade de France’s museum, where you’ll say goodbye and explore the exhibition solo. Here, you’ll see intriguing archives and memorabilia gathered through the years. When you’re good and ready, head for the exit. We’ll see you next time.
