Marseille

The cosmopolitan vibe comes from a maritime history that has given Marseille a unique and international window on the world​.

Now, the historic city plays host to some very important Rugby World Cup 2023 matches.

No less than England, Argentina, South Africa, Scotland and hosts France will play at the Stade de Marseille in the pool stages of the competition, before two huge quarter-final games to end the Marseille stint of the tournament.

Usually home to OM, the stadium transforms brilliantly for rugby, to being a 67,000 seater arena, ensuring spectators are packed in to watch the special Rugby World Cup matches.
