How Couple-Friendly is Stade de France?

What makes it 78% Couple-Friendly: Couples can share the behind-the-scenes tour, dine at panoramic Le Club, or feel the stadium buzz at a concert; however, seating is far apart if you book late and romance is limited on packed trains.

Positives:

  • Easy Metro Access: RER B and Metro Line 13 stop directly at Stade de France–Saint-Denis station.
  • Shared Behind-the-Scenes Thrill: Couples can relive iconic moments as you step onto the actual playing field together.

Challenges:

  • Security Lines: Expect 15–30 min waits at security on event days—arrive early.
  • Busy Plaza on Events: Photo spots on the esplanade fill quickly when matches or concerts start soon.

The atmosphere was spectacular and the French crowd was so vocal and supportive of their team. The best stadium I've had the fortune to visit. Alcohol not being sold during a sporting event was definitely a massive improvement over other stadiums.

And when it was my turn, my ticket kep...

It was my first experience of visiting such a large stadium and it was incredible. Linkin Park's concert was great! The toilets and water stands were easy to get to.
