Bollaert-Delelis Stadium is a distinctive English-style football venue, with four separate stands positioned close to the pitch. Its capacity of more than 38,000 spectators and its close association with RC Lens make it one of the most important sporting venues in northern France.
The steep stands and short distance from the playing surface create powerful acoustics and provide clear views from most sections. Modernised facilities include comfortable seating, refreshment kiosks and food and drink areas, although available services may vary depending on the event and ticket category.
The stadium is located at Avenue Alfred Maës, Lens, France. Entrances are arranged around the stadium forecourt, with signs from the surrounding streets and nearby bus stops directing visitors to the correct stand. Parking immediately beside the venue may be restricted during events, so visitors should check the organiser’s arrival instructions in advance; broader information about getting around Lens is provided below.
