Template:Use dmy dates Script error: No such module "Infobox".Template:Template otherScript error: No such module "Check for unknown parameters".Template:Main other Allianz Riviera[1] (also known as Grand Stade de Nice and Stade de Nice due to UEFA, FIFA, and IOC sponsorship regulations[2][3]) is a multi-use stadium in Nice, France, used mostly for football matches of host OGC Nice and also for occasional home matches of rugby union club Toulon. The stadium has a capacity of 36,178 people and replaces the city's former stadium Stade Municipal du Ray. Construction started in 2011 and was completed two years later. The stadium's opening was on 22 September 2013, for a match between OGC Nice and Valenciennes.
The stadium was originally planned to be completed by 2007. However, construction was halted the previous year because of concerns related to the future cost of the structure. Plans for the stadium, located in Saint-Isidore near the Var, were then shelved. The project was revived as part of France's ultimately successful bid to host UEFA Euro 2016. The stadium hosted six matches at the 2019 FIFA Women's World Cup[4] and six matches at the 2024 Paris Olympic Games.[5]
The stadium is bordered on its east by a short shopping street. Access for away fans as of 30 January 2025 is on the northwest on the bottom floor, on the north end of the west parking square.
