Stade de France

We hope to go to see the Alegria Circus in June at the National Stadium in Pairs. I%26#39;ll have my 7-year old daughter and elderly mother with me. What is the public transport like to the Stadium from Central Paris? My Mother can%26#39;t walk too far. Is it possible to get a taxi back from there relatively easily in the evening (ie 10pmish)?

Hello;





From central Paris take the RER B line to the Stade de France. It is very convenient. Station is right there at the Stade.. I%26#39;d say it%26#39;s about 100 meters from the station to the entrance of the Stade





Getting a cab will depend on the crowd leaving the Circus and how many of them want a taxi. The RER will still be running and it will be the fastest way back to central Paris.





You have to walk just as far as that to get to a taxi station...

It%26#39;s a lot more than 100 metres from the station to the stadium.





Using the RATP site and %26quot;plan de quartier%26quot; for %26quot;La Plaine Stade de France%26quot;, it looks more like 700m. It took us about 10 minutes to stroll back - it%26#39;s easy walking though, all flat apart from the slope up to the station platform.

It seems the event is not in Stade de France but near to it. Please ignore my previous post and refer to this which I copied from the official site.
