Stade de France
Of specific interest to those visiting Paris on college sports tours is that the national stadium, the Stade de France. It's the fifth biggest stadium in Europe, and a formidable structure even by international standards with its 3 galleries, large screens and a seated capability of 80,000. Though engineered fairly recently it's a prestigious place in sport history, having been the location of some historic sporting events, like the 1998 World Cup Final between France and Brazil - that the stadium was engineered. If your students are soccer or rugby players this can be an particularly inspiring attraction for them, and also the stadium tour offers lots of insight into French and international sporting culture and history.
