Stadium
Stade Pierre-Mauroy
Villeneuve-d'Ascq, France
Formerly: Grand Stade Lille Métropole
Three hours is the number that separates this ground from the rest of France.
It opened on 17 August 2012 as the Grand Stade Lille Métropole. Since 24 June 2022 a five-year sponsorship has added Decathlon Arena to the front of it, though the plain name is the one used for the major events.
The attendance records show the split personality. The sporting best is 49,712, for Lille against ПСЖ on 14 April 2019; in arena configuration it is 28,010, set twice at the 2017 world handball championship, on 21 and 24 January.
In 2024 it took the final of the Coupe de France out of Paris for the first time.
