Hard blow for Les Bleus, who are used to playing at the Stade de France throughout the year during their home matches. Due to the Rugby World Cup and then the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, the latter will be inaccessible to soccer for several months, forcing the FFF to find fallback solutions. The Parc des Princes is one of them, so we'll see you on September 7, 2023, for aEuro 2024 qualifying match against Ireland, in the 16th arrondissement of Paris.
It's off to the second leg of the qualifiers, to be watched on TF1 from 8.45pm. No major worries for Les Bleus, who lead their group with 4 wins from 4 matches, without conceding a single goal!
Stade de France: no match or concert in 2024 before the Paris Olympics
In anticipation of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games, the Stade de France will be put to rest in early 2024. No sporting event or concert will take place in the mythical stadium before the fall. [Read more]
The Paris-Saint-Germain stadium, which was home to Les Bleus until 1997, will thus launch the 2023-2024 season of the former world champions. Even if the Parc des Princes has half as many seats as the Stade de France, its stadium allows fans to make their voices heard. Ideal for Kylian Mbappé, who will be playing at home! Only one match between Les Bleus and Gibraltar is scheduled at the Stade de France this year, before renovation work begins on November 18, 2023.
Other matches have been relocated outside the capital, between Lille, Lyon, Marseille, Bordeaux and Metz. This represents quite a change for the French national team, which should not be disrupted by these moves, as it has been in great form over the last few years.
