2022 Universal Registration Document

Programming and commercial activity in the venues managed by VINCI Stadium gathered pace throughout 2022, eventually outperforming the results achieved in 2019. A key highlight of the year was the resumption of concerts in the stadiums, with exceptional productions such as the Coldplay, Indochine and Lady Gaga roadshows. Meanwhile, three network stadiums (in Saint-Denis, Bordeaux and Nice) are actively preparing to host the Rugby World Cup France 2023 and the world’s largest sporting event in 2024, for which all teams are mobilised.

All in all, 91 events were organised in the four stadiums in 2022, including 14 concerts and 77 sporting fixtures.

VINCI Stadium

The Stade de France (Saint-Denis)

hosted 22 events, including 12 concerts and 10 sporting fixtures (four France XV rugby matches, three French national soccer team games and the finals of the Coupe de France soccer, Champions League soccer and Top 14 rugby competitions), welcoming 1.8 million spectators altogether. Furthermore, the stadium beat two records for audience size: more than 97,000 in a single evening (Indochine concert) and over 320,000 for a single group (the four-night run of Coldplay concerts).

VINCI Stadium

The Matmut Atlantique (Bordeaux)

hosted 18 soccer matches (nine Ligue 1 and nine Ligue 2), an Indochine concert drawing 55,000 people (record attendance for the venue thanks to the central stage layout) and a Soprano concert attracting 50,000 fans. The partnership with the Restos du Cœur food bank was maintained and will be carried forward in 2023.

VINCI Stadium

The Allianz Riviera (Nice)

hosted 17 French Ligue 1 soccer matches, two Coupe de France games, four Europa Conference matches, and two friendlies played by its resident club, OGC Nice. The stadium also hosted two Top 14 semi-finals attracting almost 60,000 spectators and a charity match played by former soccer and rugby champions, with proceeds going to the non-profit group “Un sourire, un espoir pour la vie” (A smile, a hope for life).

The Stade Marie-Marvingt (Le Mans)

welcomed 17 French third division soccer team matches, a friendly played by its resident club, two Ligue 2 Paris FC games, one Division 2 women’s match and one French national women’s soccer team game. After expiry of the naming contract with MMA and at the request of the concession-granting authority, the stadium was renamed “Stade Marie-Marvingt” in honour of the pioneering female aviator and multi-sport athlete.
