Stade Rennais Football Club

⚽ A trip to Roazhon Park: experience the passion of Stade Rennais during your stay!

If you're staying at the Au Lutin Pommé lodge and you're a sports fan, a great atmosphere, or simply curious to discover a vibrant side of local culture, don't miss a trip to Roazhon Park, the legendary stadium of Stade Rennais Football Club. Less than an hour's drive from the lodge, it's an ideal outing for a lively evening or an afternoon with the family.

Stade Rennais, a story of the heart

Founded in 1901, Stade Rennais is one of the oldest football clubs in France. For over a century, it has embodied the fervor of an entire region. The "Rouge et Noir," as they are affectionately known, play a central role in the lives of Rennes and Brittany.

The club has enjoyed its glory days, notably winning the Coupe de France in 1965, 1971... and more recently in 2019, a moving victory celebrated by all of Brittany! Stade Rennais is today a solid Ligue 1 club, renowned for the quality of its training center, from which talents such as Eduardo Camavinga and Ousmane Dembélé have emerged.

Roazhon Park: a modern stadium on a human scale

Located west of Rennes, Roazhon Park (formerly Stade de la Route de Lorient) offers a unique atmosphere. With its 29,000 seats, it's a modern, well-designed stadium that offers unobstructed views from any seat. The atmosphere is friendly and festive, and the "RCK" (Red Kaos 94) stand sets the tone with chants, flags, and entertainment.

Even if you're not a football fan, attending a Stade Rennais match is an experience to be had: the Breton chants, the popular fervor, the proximity to the pitch... everything is there to have a good time.

A moment to share, even with family

Contrary to popular belief, going to the stadium is perfectly suited to families. The atmosphere is friendly, with lots of children in the stands and a very active support team. It's a unique outing to consider during your stay, especially if your children enjoy sports or are new to the world of football.

It's also possible to visit Roazhon Park outside of match days, particularly during open days or special events organized by the club. A great opportunity to explore the backstage area, the locker room, or the pitch without the crowds of big nights.

Practical information from the gîte

From Au Lutin Pommé, it's about a 50-minute drive to Roazhon Park. The easiest way to park is in one of the free car parks near the stadium, particularly on the Beauregard or Cleunay side.

Remember to book your tickets in advance on the official Stade Rennais website, especially if you want to attend a match against a "big" club (PSG, Marseille, Lyon, etc.). Tickets go fast!

And why not take advantage of this opportunity to spend the afternoon in Rennes, strolling through the historic center, then ending the day with a match at Roazhon Park? It's the perfect opportunity to combine urban exploration, gastronomy, and a sporting atmosphere.

What if you became a supporter for one night?

Even if you don't know much about football, you'll quickly be swept away by the local enthusiasm. All it takes is a Rennes goal or a chant sung by the entire stadium to get you into the game. We bet you'll leave with a red and black scarf as a souvenir? 😉

And then... in the magic of sport, each match is a story, with its twists and turns, its heroes of the day and its shared emotions.

In summary: an original, lively, and 100% Breton outing less than an hour from the gîte.

Whether you're passionate, curious, or simply looking for an authentic experience, an evening at Roazhon Park is a great idea to add to your schedule. Come on, Rennes!
