For the first time in its long history, the Coupe de France final will not take place in the Paris region.
While we are playing the 107th edition of the Vieille Dame this season, the Stade de France is currently under renovation in preparation for the Paris Olympic Games next July and will therefore not be available on the day of the final on May 25.

Only seven venues have hosted this prestigious meeting since the first edition in 1918, which pitted Olympique Pantin against FC Lyon (3-0) at the Légion Saint-Michel stadium (Paris 15th).
Since then, the finals have taken place at the Bergeyre stadium (Paris 19th century), the Pershing stadium (Paris 12th century), the Yves-du-Manoir stadium in Colombes, the Bauer stadium in Saint-Ouen then the Parc des Princes (Paris 16th century) and finally the Stade de France in Saint-Denis (Seine-Saint-Denis) from 1998, until last year without interruption.
