But the Stade de France is also known for opening its doors to many national and international artists, resulting in memorableconcerts, such as those by Prince, Johnny Hallyday, who performed there nine times, and more recently Coldplay. If you like statistics, you'll be interested to know that the Stade de France has hosted nearly 500 events and welcomed almost 35 million spectators since it opened in 1998!
