Stade Vuillermet, Stadium in 8th arrondissement of Lyon, France
Stade Vuillermet is a sports facility in the 8th arrondissement that holds two separate playing fields and a covered grandstand seating 1,100 people. One field serves football and rugby matches while the other smaller field is used for seven-a-side football games.
Architect Alexandre Audouze-Tabourin designed this sports venue, which opened in 1926 and initially served as the home ground for Lyon OU. It remained the team's primary home until 2011.
This venue serves as a gathering place where residents come to watch local football and rugby teams compete throughout the year. The matches bring neighbors together and create moments of shared excitement and community spirit.
The venue is located at Avenue Paul Santy and easily accessible by TCL public transportation services. Visitors can also use the nearby Vélo'v bike-sharing network for convenient arrival from different parts of the city.
The facility can host simultaneous training sessions and matches because of its two separate fields. This arrangement allows different sports and multiple teams to use the grounds at the same time without interfering with each other.
