Preparing your visit

Here are some tips to help you prepare for your visit.

1. Check live traffic conditions

The Bonjour RATP app is ideal for checking live traffic updates, or planning a route just before you leave. The journey planner takes disruptions into account and suggests the best routes accordingly! Be sure, however, to follow the recommendations in this article to get off at the right station depending on your gate.

2. Buy your tickets in advance

To save time and avoid queues at the station, our best advice is to buy your tickets in advance.

From the Bonjour RATP app, in the Tickets section, you can choose to buy and load your ticket onto a physical Navigo Easy pass, or directly onto your phone. If you choose your phone, you will also use it to validate your journey at the station. Just follow our instructions in the app!

3. Protect yourself from the heat

As the Seine-Saint-Denis department is under a red heatwave alert, a few precautions are necessary!

  • Remember to stay hydrated regularly: you may bring your water bottles (maximum 0.50 L, no glass) or plastic bottles without caps, and drinking water points are available throughout the stadium.
  • Also protect yourself from the sun by staying in shaded areas, bringing a cap or hat, and avoiding physical exertion; small rechargeable plastic misting sprays, portable handheld fans, and folding fans are allowed inside the stadium. To limit exposure to the heat, also avoid arriving too early.

Finally, if needed, medical teams are present on site.
