My husband really wants to attend a soccer game while we are in Paris. We will be arriving on November 30th and departing on December 5th. Is it possible to find out if there is a game in Paris while we%26#39;re there? Also, if there is one, how would we go about buying tickets? Thanks in advance for any help you can give.

Here%26#39;s the official website: http://www.psg.fr/fr/index.html
I saved the link because we%26#39;re hoping to attend a game in February. If you click on the logo and enter you will see %26quot;Billeterie%26quot; in the center of the menu on the main page. It has all the information (if you can read French or have a browser that can translate the page).
Maybe the experts can give you more information, but that should at least give you the schedule.

You can also purchase tickets at www.francebillet.com, they have information in English, and you can pick up tickets at any of the FNAC sales outlets etc.

Coincidense?
I%26#39;m in Paris from 26th Nov to 4th Dec, and I also planned to visit some football game. Maybe we can go together if something is going on. Also I%26#39;m planning to go arround those days so it would be great to have a companion for that. If he%26#39;s interested it would be great!

Bluepoint, Thanks for the website. Unfortunately, Tuckee, it appears that there aren%26#39;t any home games during the time we%26#39;re in Paris. Oh well!

Well, yes, I checked, it%26#39;s true for PSG, and also for Lille, a stadium-less soccer team that plays its big European games at the Stade de France. But do you know that Paris has got another European class team? It%26#39;s Stade français, the local rugby team. How more European can you get than attending a rugby game in winter? And, guess what, they are playing the Irish team of Ulster at Stade Jean Bouin (next to the Parc des Princes) on Dec 4, 14h00. If you go to their website, at www.stade.fr, you%26#39;ll have all the details, plus pictures of the famous Stade français calendar, featuring all those muscular hunks wearing nothing more than a rugby ball!

Thanks, Bob

Strangly enough they also played Ulster in December of last year (and won easily). At half time one of the men behind us offered us a sip of whiskey from his hip flask. I of cousre returned the guesture by offering him some whisky from my hip flask :)
Remember...
%26quot;Soccer is a gentlemans game played by thugs and rugby is a thugs game played by gentleman.%26quot; :)
