Best sections

Virage Sud (Chevalier Roze / Depé)

The home ultras end — loudest, most passionate atmosphere, but expect non-stop standing and singing.

Virage Nord (Patrice de Peretti)

The opposite ultras curve, named after a legendary supporter — another all-action standing section.

Tribune Jean Bouin

A covered side stand with strong views of the pitch and a calmer vibe than the curves.

Insider tips

  • The Vélodrome is well served by the Métro — Rond-Point du Prado (Line 2) is a short walk from the ground.
  • Avoid wearing the away team's colours near the Virage Sud and Nord on derby or high-profile match days.
