Parc des PrincesSeating Guide: Where to Sit & Best Seats
The Parc des Princes, Paris Saint-Germain's home in the 16th arrondissement, holds about 48,000 in a tight, steep concrete bowl famous for keeping every seat close to the pitch. Four stands ring the ground: the lateral Tribune Borelli (main/press side) and Tribune Paris, and the two ends — Virage Auteuil, home of PSG's ultras (Collectif Ultras Paris), and Tribune Boulogne. Best views are the central upper blocks of Borelli or Paris; the Auteuil end delivers the noise. The compact bowl means even 'cheap' seats are closer than at most big stadiums.

Seating map
This is the map used for ticket sales at Parc des Princes. Exact configuration varies by event.
Configurations
Football — Ligue 1 / Champions League
Standard configuration. The CUP ultras animate the Virage Auteuil; European nights push the whole bowl up a level.
Concerts / other events (occasional)
End-stage productions use the pitch as floor with one virage behind the stage closed; the tight bowl makes for an unusually intimate stadium show.
Seating levels explained
Lower Tier (Premier Niveau)Lower blocks (100-level style numbering by tribune)
The lower ring of the tight bowl — genuinely close to the pitch on all sides.
Pros: Proximity: even end lower blocks feel near the action; central lower Borelli/Paris is premium.
Cons: Shallow front rows sit low; the ends are end-on views.
Upper Tier (Deuxième Niveau)Upper blocks
The steep upper ring hanging over the lower — the Parc’s signature acoustic amplifier.
Pros: Excellent elevated views from central Borelli/Paris; the concrete roof traps the noise memorably.
Cons: Back-corner upper seats are the furthest, though still close by big-stadium standards.
Best seats at Parc des Princes
| For | Sections | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Best overall | Central upper Tribune Borelli or Tribune Paris, halfway line | Elevated central views in a bowl where no seat is truly far — the best way to read PSG’s play. |
| Best value | Upper Boulogne central blocks | End-stand pricing, full view of the pitch, and you face the Auteuil ultras’ show. |
| Atmosphere | Virage Auteuil lower blocks and neighbours | The Collectif Ultras Paris end: capos, drums, tifos and constant song. |
| With kids / calm | Lower Tribune Paris mid-blocks | Close, covered, and away from the standing-singing ends. |
Seats to avoid & obstructed views
- Upper corner back rows: The furthest seats; roof supports can clip the very top peripheral views.
- Lower end front rows (Auteuil/Boulogne): Low, behind-goal angle; far-end play is hard to follow.
- Behind-stage blocks at concerts: Closed or restricted depending on the production.
Accessibility & companion seating
Wheelchair positions with companion seats at lower-ring level across the tribunes, accessible entrances and adapted services; book through PSG’s dedicated accessibility ticketing in advance — allocation is limited in the compact bowl.
Where: Lower-ring accessible platforms across the four tribunes.

Frequently asked questions
What is the capacity?
About 47,900 — small for a superclub, which is exactly why the Parc feels so intense: the steep double-deck bowl keeps everyone close and traps the noise under the concrete roof.
Where do PSG’s ultras sit?
The Virage Auteuil (one end), home of the Collectif Ultras Paris. Buy there (or adjacent) for the full standing-singing experience; Tribune Boulogne opposite is calmer.
Are seats covered?
Yes — the elliptical concrete roof covers all seats; front rows can catch drifting rain.
Where do away fans sit?
In a segregated corner block (upper level between Auteuil and Paris tribunes) with a dedicated entrance; allocation is small.
Is PSG moving stadium?
The club has publicly explored a move or major redevelopment for years. Nothing changes for visitors today — the Parc remains PSG’s home; follow official club channels for developments.
How do I get there?
Métro Line 9 to Porte de Saint-Cloud (5-minute walk) or Line 10 to Porte d’Auteuil; the stadium is in the west of Paris near Roland-Garros.
