Stade Michel-Amand, Football stadium in Poitiers, France
Stade Michel-Amand is a football stadium located across Poitiers and Buxerolles with a grass playing surface and tiered seating sections. The venue has a capacity of around 15,750 spectators and provides facilities designed for football matches and related sporting events.
The stadium opened in 1989 under the name Stade de la Pépinière before being renamed in honor of a local figure. Major renovation work took place in 1995 and significantly improved the facilities and infrastructure.
The venue is the main gathering place for football supporters in the area and plays a central role in the region's sporting life. Fans from Poitiers and Buxerolles come here to watch their teams and connect with neighbors who share their passion for the sport.
The venue is easily accessible from both municipalities and has direct access points from nearby residential areas. Visitors should arrive early on event days to secure parking and enter without rushing.
The venue straddles the boundary between two municipalities, which is why it is jointly managed by the Grand Poitiers urban authority. This unusual location creates a shared gathering place for residents from both neighboring areas.
