Beyoncé is gearing up to set the Stade de France alight at three not-to-be-missed (sold-out) concerts on Thursday June 19, Saturday June 21 and Sunday June 22, 2025. Queen B is set to take advantage of the occasion to celebrate her award-winning opus "Cowboy Carter". If you're one of the lucky holders of this precious ticket and you're planning to reach the legendary Seine-Saint-Denis stadium 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.

June promises to be a particularly busy month musically, with the Fête de la Musique, numerous festivals and big concerts, including three Beyoncé shows. Queen B returns to the Stade de France on Thursday June 19, Saturday June 21 and Sunday June 22, 2025, as part of her " Cowboy Carter Tour".

Not surprisingly, tickets for Beyoncé's three Paris shows sold out in minutes. Beyoncé 's new tour will feature her award-winning album"Cowboy Carter", released last February at the 67th Grammy Awards!

French and foreign fans of the American artist, holders of the precious sesame, are therefore in the starting-blocks, impatient to see Queen B in concert in Paris on June 19, 21 and 22, 2025.

But before you can catch Beyoncé on stage, you'll have to get to the Stade de France. Given the number of people expected to be in the vicinity of the stadium on June 19, 21 and 22, this promises to be a difficult mission. 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, 13 and 14, Transilienline H and tramway T8.

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 entrance gate. Itineraries vary according to the stadium entrance indicated on your ticket.

Please note that from June 20 to July 10, Monday to Friday from 10.45pm, traffic will be interrupted on the RER B between Gare du Nord and Aéroport Charles de Gaulle 2-TGV / Mitry-Claye due to maintenance work.

As for the rest, here are the public transport options you need to prioritize to get to and from the Stade de France, depending on your access gate.
