About
Opened on 8 May 1984 for the European Championship, La Beaujoire took over from the Stade Marcel-Saupin as the home of FC Nantes. Designed by Berdje Agopyan, it has borne since 1989 the name of Louis Fonteneau, president of the Maison Jaune from 1959 to 1986. It was here that the Canaries celebrated their eighth French league title in 2001.
The FC Nantes Tour takes you behind the scenes: the dressing rooms and the warm-up area, the VIP lounges, the mixed zone, the edge of the pitch, the dugout and the press conference room. The visit lasts about 1 hour 30 minutes and also brings the club's history to life through anecdotes and original content. The FC Nantes VR experience lets you virtually walk out onto the pitch with the players and join a dressing-room celebration. Online booking is compulsory and groups are limited to 25 people. Tours set off from the stadium's official shop, where visitors get 10% off on the day of their visit.
Did you know?
The very first match played at the Stade de La Beaujoire was a friendly between FC Nantes and… Romania! For this gala fixture arranged by the club's president at the time, Louis Fonteneau, the Canaries lost 1-0 in front of 30,000 spectators. It took the first official match, a 3-1 win over Toulon in August 1984, before the Canaries finally found the net on their new pitch.
