Decathlon Arena - Stade Pierre Mauroy — Attraction in Lille

French only venue . Xenophobic / Unprofessional staff who don’t give care about visiting fans. Would give a 0 star if I could .

In our stand we had 1 choice of food. Hotdogs or nothing at all. No alcohol served for visiting fans - which isn’t that bad if it was actually communicated to people - 0 information until you get to the till and work it out for yourself.

Beyond the food and drink, they do not even bother to organise visiting fans so people ended up sitting anywhere and everywhere. They send you on a while goose chase when you ask where you’re supposed to go (because it ain’t that clear)

Then they confiscate portable chargers (senseless) when they’re super important for visiting fans because we need our phones to work not just generally but to get back to our hotel etc.

Worse, after the game they lose our cables and items that we gave them. The solution is a shrug of the shoulders with ‘ I’m sorry other people took yours ‘ I am sorry but if I handed it to you (which tbh the security guard just grabbed it off me and handed it to the security meant for confiscation because manners don’t exist in France) - then it’s your responsibility to keep it safe so I could pick it up with my ticket later.

Atrocious service - so unfriendly to tourist - barely any food / drinks options and they lose...

Attending a Champions League game at Stade Pierre-Mauroy was nothing short of an electrifying experience. From the moment I arrived, the atmosphere was absolutely buzzing with excitement.
