Jean Bouin stadium, originally built in 1925, had insufficient capacity and comfort, and no longer met rugby’s latest requirements for hosting and broadcasting national and international matches. The decision was made to completely rebuild it. The new stadium officially opened in 2013 has three floors below ground level and two to six upper floor levels. It has 20,000 seats, a gymnasium, an underground car park, office spaces and business premises.
