Whether you are a big fan of Paris-Saint-Germain or an apprentice supporter, you will find in this small guide a summary of the experiences offered during a match at the Parc des Princes, sometimes unknown! In recent years, the Parisian stadium has become much more family-friendly and adapts to all audiences, from the historical fan to the parents who wish to share their passion for soccer with their children, and even to the tourist on a trip to the capital.
First, you have to get a seat for the game, and that's not easy! Unless you have a yearly subscription or know someone who does, it is necessary to get a seat relatively early, as soon as the date is announced, because the demand is very high for the Parisian club. You can also go to the official resale platform Ticketplace, but the price of the tickets can be quite high, depending on the location. Do not buy a ticket outside of these options, it could be a scam!
Depending on your profile, some stands are more optimal than others! The one of Auteuil for example, gathers the Ultras of the club and they are the ones who electrify the stadium during the game, with many songs! It is the most animated of the stadium, and a real experience to live. On the Boulogne side, it's a little bit quieter, because the time when the supporters answered each other is over, but this doesn't prevent a good atmosphere and a nice view in front of Auteuil!
The Paris stand is excellent for families, and offers many animations! You will often find there the club's mascot, Germain. As for Borelli, it is a bit more expensive and more difficult to access! We recommend the curves, when possible, which offer an unobstructed view of the action and allow you to enjoy it thoroughly.
If you are starting your fan adventure, prefer matches without particular stakes, against Ligue 1 opponents less rated than Lens or Marseille, the seats will be more accessible. Well, once you have the ticket in your pocket, you have to go to the Parc des Princes! Rather well served, the stadium is located in the 16th district of Paris, next to Jean Bouin, temple of rugby and Roland-Garros, in short, ideal for sports fans!
How do I get to the Parc des Princes in Paris? What you need to know before you come
Located in the 16th arrondissement of Paris, the Parc des Princes plays host to a large number of PSG soccer matches every year, as well as a number of musical events. Here are a few handy tips for getting to the Parc des Princes, whether you opt for public transport or the car. [Read more]
Depending on your location in the park, you will have to enter through different gates and can choose the nearest metro station to get there: Porte de Saint-Cloud, Porte d'Auteuil, Michel-Ange-Molitor or Exelmans, on lines 9 and 10. It will take you a few minutes to walk to the stadium and take the time to avoid the crowds. To enjoy the fan zone before the game, go through the Porte de Saint-Cloud!
You can also come by car, but parking spaces are scarce, so it's better to leave your car at a few stations and go back by transport. For those who live close by or are not afraid to pedal, the ideal is to come by bike! A free parking lot awaits you on site, fully secured, and you can even have your bike repaired if needed! Bus lines 22, 32, 52, 62 and 72 can also take you to your destination . If you want to live the experience to the fullest and enjoy the entertainment, try to arrive a good two hours before the game, it's ideal!
As far as food is concerned, you will be served at the Parc des Princes! In the fan zone, many foodtrucks are installed, with a large choice of food from around the world. Inside the stadium, you can also find these stands outside, and inside, you can taste burgers, hot-dogs, croque-monsieurs, nachos, with quality ingredients, whose recipes change regularly, so that you can try different tastes by coming several times, of course! Refreshment stands are installed on all three levels, so that no one goes hungry. In some stands, you can even order with a QR code on your phone and come and get your menu directly, without queuing!
Very practical, there are now 100% secure charging stations for your phones throughout the stadium. What a way to save your evening! Few people know it, but for the slightest problem or request, you can find Stadium Coaches (look for the red jackets!), present to solve problems throughout the evening .
During the game against Lens, the first Bodega in the history of the club took place, in the Paris Tribune. An additional animation which makes the post-game very festive, and which changes the usual end of the evening, where one hurries to catch a subway before it is packed. We hope that the event will be renewed and concern more stands in the future, because the atmosphere is incredible, between a DJ in full form, dancers in rhythm and a particularly gifted saxophonist. Something to prolong the experience!
For a few years now, the Parc des Princes has been a great place to take your children to discover a soccer match in the best conditions, in complete safety. The Paris Tribune is recommended, as many pre-match activities allow the youngest to have fun and get a taste of the match.
The best thing to do is to register your child under the age of 16, if he or she is a soccer fan, in the Junior Club, as a special stand will be reserved for them. This is how we create the fans of tomorrow! Special make-up, mini-games, messages to the players... you can even celebrate your birthday with the mascot! Kids also receive benefits throughout the year and can participate in special events or even escort the players on the field!
Whether you are a student club or an amateur club in the Paris region, Paris-Saint-Germain has a group offer for you! You will be able to choose your match, take advantage of a catering area and benefit from a grouped placement in the stands, which will make all the participants happy! The Football Room is a space dedicated to young football lovers, with an artificial turf, table soccer, ball activities and other sports activities.
The most VIP among you are largely served at the Parc des Princes! If the Paris-Saint-Germain experience can be lived whatever your bank account, the offers are exceptional to live the matches with prestige. The SO/Bar, for example, is located under the Parc's roof and offers a bird's eye view of the pitch, allowing you to experience the match from a unique perspective, while enjoying gourmet dishes.
Companies can also rent boxes for the season, to impress their employees and share a few memorable hours with them. Some of them have an exceptional view of the field, and you can find several services, including high-end catering, on a continuous basis. Corporate committees have at their disposal Le Duplex, which offers a spectacular view of the Parc, in the quarter turn of the Paris stand, with a comfortable terrace.
