NICE
Recognised as one of the most beautiful cities in France, Nice – the capital of the Côte d’Azur- is in the French Riviera between the Mediterranean and the Alps.
With 300 days of sunshine on average per year, there is no bad time of the year to visit Nice, a city loved by both tourists and the French alike. Try the Mediterranean gastronomic specialties of Nice, pan bagnat, pissaladière or socca in one of the small restaurants hidden away on the typical narrow streets of the city or on the piazzettas.
With its Italian influences and its famous Promenade des Anglais, the city is full of Mediterranean character. Boasting the success of a UEFA Euro 2016 host, Nice is ready for another international celebration during Rugby World Cup 2023, showing off its new stadium that prides itself on being one of the most environmentally responsible in Europe.
LYON
The history of Lyon, the capital of Roman Gaul, reads like a Who’s Who of French cultural pioneers, including the Lumière brothers (the godfathers of cinema) to Paul Bocuse, a three-star Michelin chef.
Situated within the regions of Beaujolais and Côtes-du-Rhône, Lyon is famous for wine but also has a rich food tradition. No visit to Lyon would be complete without a visit to one of the ‘bouchons’, traditional restaurants unique to Lyon serving the local specialties and found in the alleyways of the Old Town, the Terreaux district, Rue Mercière and Rue des Marronniers.
Rugby World Cup 2023 will welcome players and fans to the OL Stadium, the third largest in France. After hosting RWC 2007 and the European Challenge Cup final in 2016, Lyon is the all-round ultimate fan experience.
PARIS
Arguably the world’s most picturesque city, the French capital oozes class and culture around each of its twenty arrondissements.
A short distance from the centre of Paris lies the energetic district of Saint-Denis. Here, you’ll find the Basilica of Saint-Denis, Street Art Avenue and the Cité du Cinéma, a film studio complex and celebration of the art of cinema.
As the venue for the opening match and RWC 2023 Final, Saint-Denis is also home to the country’s largest sporting venue, the Stade de France, host to the 1998 FIFA World Cup, 2003 IAAF World Championships, Rugby World Cup 2007 and UEFA Euro 2016.

LILLE
Close to the border with Belgium, Lille can lay claim to being the most ‘European’ city of France. Renowned for its hospitality, generosity and friendly disposition, this quaint city is perfectly poised to offer a truly international welcome.
Whether you’re strolling along the Grand Place, wandering the Old Quarter of Lille or admiring the Vielle Bourse (the Old Stock Exchange), discovering Lille is a pleasure. This is evident at the Lille Braderie, a huge street market that attracts between two and three million visitors each year. Be sure to try the gastronomic specialties of the city including carbonnade, a Flemish beef dish, and waterzoï, a fish stew.
Lille has a tradition of hosting major events, both cultural and sporting. The Stade Pierre-Mauroy is an ultra-modern venue with a retractable roof and the ‘Boîte à Spectacles’ – a sliding pitch to accommodate other sporting events and concerts.
