So am I right in thinking the 3 packs go onsale this afternoon?

The site says:

OUVERTURE AU GRAND PUBLIC
L’ouverture à tous du PACK UEFA EUROPA LEAGUE se fera le mercredi 3 septembre en fin de journée.

Which translates (google) as:

OPEN TO THE PUBLIC
Inclusiveness UEFA EUROPA LEAGUE PACK will be Wednesday, Sept. 3 in the afternoon.

Not very specific, anyone have any idea on what time? I can get through to where you select seats in the stadium but the button that says "Valider mon choix" (Validate my choice) is unclickable at the moment.

Have you got to buy the 3 game pack and how much is it?

Reckon they'd believe me if I phoned up and claimed I was from the Lille Supporters Club, Merseyside branch?

Me and a mate are getting the overnight bus from London-Lille on weds (get to lille at 6am Thursday) & then again night bus back on Thursdy night. Get in to London at 5am on Friday and then struggle though friday at work means we only have to take a day off & no need for Hotels, will be knackering I know. Bus was £51 return.

We're on this one - some IDBUS or something? seems like there's quite a few of us!

Gonna be madness - saying that we cross the channel via the train , was hoping for the ferry. Fingers crossed they have stop off at service stations along the way

Prices not available yet, but it was 25 euro for club members. Also a few seasons ago, the home playoff leg + all 4 CL group matches was a 70 euro, 5 match pack...


You don't have to buy the 3 match pack, but that is the first available ticketing option.

You could try Airbnb, where you rent out a room or a whole place. You have to register on the site, but here is a selection of rooms in Lille for under £50 a night.

If there are a few of you, then the room price is still the same.

Airbnb is a great shout...


Sorry if anyone is booking this, but there's a decent budget place that has rooms for up to 4 people

It's at the other end of the yellow metro line from the stadium next to one of the hospitals (CHR Oscar Lambret is the stop for it).

Then there's a hostel at St Philibert hospital too, called Mister Bed. Left-hand end of the red line (St Philibert is the name of the stop)

If you're booking out of the centre, rememeber that the metro is shut between 00:30 and 5am each night. There's always taxis though.

Thanks for your reply that airbnb seems a good option but not sure any of the hosts would appreciate me rolling in at 4am pissed up singing Roberto had a dream. Have tried to book the f1 Lille mons but website seems to be playing up.
