Friday and Saturday, Nice will host the TOP 14 semi-finals at the Allianz Riviera for the first time. On this occasion, the top 4 clubs of the TOP 14 season will face off in Nice to reach the Final and attempt to win the Brennus Shield: on Friday, June 17, Castres Olympique will take on Stade Toulousain, and on Saturday, June 18, Montpellier Hรฉrault Rugby will meet Union Bordeaux Bรจgles. This must-see event is organized by the National Rugby League and is expected to attract 70,000 people to Nice.
To fully capture the magic of these two days, the entire city will be decked out in the colors of the Top 14, with notably a village of activities on the Quai des Etats-Unis allowing fans to passionately experience this event throughout Friday and Saturday. The program includes rugby initiation, a giant haka, passing and penalty contests, quizzes, a photobooth, and an exhibition of the Brennus Shield…
From the Rugby Village, visitors can reach the Allianz Riviera stadium directly with dedicated shuttles departing from the Thรฉรขtre de Verdure, or by tram line 2, which will take them to the foot of the stadium.
In close proximity to the village, a park of 400 bicycles will be available free of charge to supporters (in exchange for a deposit) who wish to reach the stadium by this means of transport. Estimated duration: 40 minutes, for a 10 km secure route.
Around the stadium, supporters will be able to enjoy a giant Fan Zone open from 5 PM and visit the National Sports Museum to discover an exhibition on the legend of the Brennus Shield.
