Stade Pierre-Mauroy: where to park easily on a match or concert night?

Category: Football / Rugby stadiums

Address: 261 Boulevard de Tournai, 59650 Villeneuve-d'Ascq

Venue overview

Opened in 2012 in Villeneuve-d'Ascq, in the Lille metropolitan area, Stade Pierre-Mauroy (Decathlon Arena) is unique in Europe thanks to its removable turf, which allows it to become a modular indoor arena. Home of LOSC, it has hosted Euro 2016, the 2023 Rugby World Cup, Davis Cup finals and major concerts (Rihanna, Celine Dion, Indochine), with a capacity that can exceed 50,000 seats.

The parking puzzle

The stadium sits on the outskirts of Lille, in an area where traffic and official parking fill up quickly on high‑attendance evenings, especially when sports events and concerts are scheduled back‑to‑back, drawing tens of thousands of people at once.

The solution: book with locals

That’s exactly what PrendsMaPlace helps you avoid. By booking a parking spot from a local resident near Stade Pierre-Mauroy before you even hit the road, you’re guaranteed a space just a few minutes’ walk away – no last‑minute stress or endless searching. It’s often cheaper than official parking while still ensuring a reserved spot even on the busiest nights.
