With three crucial matches remaining in their bid to secure their Ligue 1 status (against Lens, Auxerre and Metz), OGC Nice will face RC Lens in the Crédit Agricole Coupe de France final on Friday 22nd May at 9pm. Following an initial update in the wake of qualification, here is some further important information for the rouge-et-noir faithful heading to the Stade de France.

When will ticket sales begin?

The FFF, in collaboration with the finalist clubs, is currently finalising the technical arrangements so that tickets for season ticket holders can go on sale on Thursday 30th April at 11am.

As a reminder, the final will take place on Friday 22nd May at 9pm. This decision was taken “to avoid transport disruptions the following day due to works for the ‘Grand Paris’ project'”.

What are the stages of the ticket sales process?

1. When sales open on Thursday 30th April at 11am, OGC Nice season ticket holders will have priority to purchase tickets until Monday 4th May at 3pm on billetterie.ogcnice.com

2. After this deadline, all registered Rouge et Noir supporters will be able to purchase tickets subject to availability and in accordance with the terms and conditions set out by the club.

3. Ticket sales by OGC Nice will close on Monday 11th May at 6pm

How are the tickets allocated?

Each finalist club is allocated 19,600 paid tickets for its supporters across various categories, as well as the option to offer hospitality packages to its partners. The remaining seats at the Stade de France are reserved by the federation for amateur clubs and districts via their regional leagues, and for the competition’s partners.

The final allocation of tickets in the neutral zones will go on sale from 12th May via the FFF’s website once the clubs have finished selling their tickets, subject to availability.

What’s the limit?

Each season ticket holder will be able to purchase up to four tickets so they can enjoy this major event with their family and loved ones.

Please note: this system does not apply to season ticket holders who are members of a supporters’ club (see below) or to season tickets purchased by organisations (works councils, companies, amateur clubs such as GymAveni, etc.).

Where can I buy tickets?

Exclusively via the club’s online ticket office, excluding groups (see below)

Following Decree No. 2024-416 of 3rd May 2024, only digital, named tickets will be on sale this year: please note that there will be no physical ticket office at the Stade de France.

What about members of supporters’ clubs?

Season ticket holders in the Populaire Sud 2nd tier who are members of the Populaire Sud group will, initially, be able to purchase a seat in the dedicated area to ensure that every member of the group can benefit from this. Purchases will be made via our website by logging into the dedicated section. This booking system has been designed so that group members can gather together, just as they do at the Allianz Riviera, in a single area within the Stade de France.

Members registered with a supporters’ group (Supporters’ Club, Falabrac) should contact their respective association, through which they can book their tickets.

What are the ticket prices?

The prices for the 19,600 seats reserved by the FFF for the finalist clubs’ supporters range from €29 to €120. These are fixed prices. There are no discounts for children, works councils or any other groups.

Nice fans on the north side

The decision regarding which section (north or south) the supporters of the finalist clubs will occupy has been approved by the authorities, taking various factors into account, including fan travel. On their two previous visits to the Stade de France in 2006 (against Nancy) and 2022 (against Nantes), the Gym’s supporters were on the south side. On 22nd May, they will be on the north side.

And how do we get to Saint-Denis?

OGC Nice is working with the relevant authorities to identify all possible public transport options to help its supporters travel to the Stade de France. The club will inform the public as soon as concrete arrangements have been finalised.

Are there any other packages available?

The club’s sales department also offers ‘hospitality’ packages at the Stade de France. These include access to additional services. Some packages also include transport. For further information, please contact your sales representatives.
