Stade de France

Stade de France was built for the 1998 football World Cup, and was the setting for the nation’s greatest sporting achievement – the 3-0 win over Brazil in the final.

The stunning venue had been officially opened in January of that year when the hosts beat Spain 1-0 at football. A month later, France beat England 24-17 in the first rugby international there.

The first international try at Stade de France was scored by Philippe Bernat-Salles for France, while Neil Back scored England’s first try there.
With a capacity of 80,000, it replaced the Parc des Princes as the home of French rugby, although the old stadium is still used by Paris St Germain football club.

Located a few kilometres north of Paris in St Denis, it played host to the 2007 Rugby World Cup final on October 20, when South Africa were crowned champions with victory over England.
