About Orange Velodrome
The Stade Vélodrome was built in the 1930s and opened in 1937, initially featuring a cycling track — the origin of its name. It underwent significant expansion over the decades, hosting matches at the 1998 FIFA World Cup and UEFA Euro 1984. The most transformative redevelopment came ahead of UEFA Euro 2016, when the stadium was comprehensively rebuilt and given a striking new roof canopy by the firm SCAU Architects, boosting capacity and modernising facilities substantially. The renamed Orange Vélodrome, reflecting a commercial naming-rights deal, hosted group-stage and knockout matches at Euro 2016, and further events during the Paris 2024 Olympics.
The Orange Vélodrome is renowned for producing one of the most intense atmospheres in European club football. The fully enclosed roof traps noise dramatically, amplifying the roar of the passionate Marseille support. The Virage Sud, home to the club's most vocal ultras groups, generates near-constant noise throughout matches. Derbies and European nights in particular produce an electrifying, intimidating environment that visiting sides consistently cite as one of the most challenging in France.
Orange Velodrome is a landmark destination for live events in Marseille with a capacity of about 67,394. Whatever you're here to see, Staadly's verified listings and interactive seat map help you find the right seat at the right price.
Opened in the late 1930s, the Orange Velodrome has grown into the beating heart of football in Marseille and the passionate home of Olympique de Marseille. Over the decades it has undergone major redevelopment, most notably the addition of its striking curved roof, which shelters supporters while amplifying the roar of the crowd. The stadium has hosted matches at World Cups and European Championships, as well as major rugby fixtures and large-scale concerts, cementing its reputation as a landmark venue in the south of France. On matchday the atmosphere is electric, with the famous OM support filling the stands, waving flags and singing throughout. Few grounds in Europe generate such colour and noise, making a visit here a memorable occasion whether you are a lifelong fan or a first-time visitor.
How to get to Orange Velodrome
The stadium sits in the 8th arrondissement of Marseille, roughly four kilometres south-east of the city centre. The nearest metro station is Rond-Point du Prado on Line 2, from which the ground is a short walk. Tram services and dedicated match-day bus routes also serve the area. Driving is possible but parking is limited; public transport is strongly recommended on event days.
Getting to Orange Velodrome
The Orange Velodrome sits in the Sainte-Marguerite area to the south of Marseille city centre and is well served by public transport. The Metro is usually the easiest option, with a station close to the ground, while several bus routes and tram connections also serve the surrounding area. If you are travelling from further afield, Marseille's main railway station connects to the Metro network, and driving is possible though parking near the stadium can be limited and busy on event days, so arriving early is advisable. Allow extra time before kick-off or the start of a show, as crowds build quickly around the venue.
