But before you can see Muse in the flesh on stage and (re)discover their many hits live, you'll have to get to the Stade de France. And let's face it, it's going to be a complicated mission, given the crowds expected around the stadium, and the fact that Muse 's only show in Paris is sold out.

As the RATP reminds us, "the Stade de France can be reached by public transport in a number of ways ", including RER lines B and D, metro lines 12 and 13, and T1 and T2.

So, if you're planning to come by public transport, here are a few practical tips to help you avoid any queues around the stadium and get as close as possible to your front door. After all, itineraries vary according to the stadium entrance indicated on your ticket.

Here are the public transport options you should use to get to and from the stadium, depending on your entrance gate.
