Flagship and emblem of the region, the Bollaert-Delelis stadium, all in white, rises in the heart of the mining basin like a phoenix rising from its ashes. Built in 1932, this stadium has been given a facelift and has seen a lot for Euro 2016! It bears the name of two personalities who have marked the history of the city. Félix Bollaert, director of the Compagnie des Mines de Lens and André Delelis, mayor of the city from 1966 to 1998, who allowed Lens to become the owner of its stadium. Today, it can accommodate up to 38,000 people.
