What we will do in this experience

Hi guys! My name is Kevin and I will take you to the best matchday experience for OL!

We will meet in the city centre of Lyon, where we will have plenty of places to see. The point of this day is to make it a perfect fit between what you must absolutely see and your interests and tastes. This is why we will get to the Fourvière Hill for the best panoramic view of the city. You will get a memorable sight, all the way to the Alpes mountains.

The city centre of Lyon is simply amazing and full of cultural interests. The old town is arguably the best place to get to know the city from the inside. The ancient and elegant style of the streets and buildings, combined with the delicious smells coming from the many typical french food restaurants, makes it a very special place. Before heading to the Groupama Stadium, we will stop by the OL historical stadium of Gerland. This stadium holds a particular place in the OL fans heart. The club used to host its games in this stadium until 2016 when it moved to the brand new Groupama Stadium!

Once we get there, you will enjoy a jewel of stadium. The Groupama Stadium is a true beauty, inside and outside. There are a lot of activities to do previous to the game. Getting there a bit earlier will allow us to visit the OL Museum and on particular occasion the stadium itself! an amazing experience for getting to understand the historical background and popularity of the club.

Once the game is about to start, get inside the stadium and meet the North stand, where the Bad Gones are based and where they cheer up for the team all game long. OL fanbase is made of many ultras groups which always work to give a great atmosphere at each game in the Groupama Stadium.

    We had a great experience with Kevin in Lyon. Prior to our arrival, Kevin had suggested we catch the local pro Rugby match that was taking place before the OL match. What a great idea! Kevin met us at the old Lyon stadium, shared the history of the stadium with us and the history of Olympic Lyonnais. We then got to experience a Rugby match, which was a first for my wife and I. Kevin then took us out of the city to the new OL stadium, which is a magnificent building. Again gave us some history and took us into the stadium. It was a cold, rainy January evening but we had a great time at both games. Kevin was easy to communicate with before we arrived, very passionate about football, a great host and really made our quick trip to Lyon a highlight of our time in France. HIGHLY recommend Kevin and homefans for an unbelievable adventure!

    Had a great experience with Kevin watching Lyon beat Marseille. Kevin provided a lot of history about both the team and the city. Seats offered a great view and the atmosphere in the stadium was very impressive. Lyon is a fantastic city to visit, highly recommended.

    I would like to thank Kevin for the wornderful experience: Our matchday started with an interesting tour of the city of Lyon; it was great to be accompanied by Kevin as he was very nice in telling me some facts and curiosities about the city. As time passed, and as kick off started approaching, we started moving towards the stadium, and easily reached it with public transportation. It was at this time, that the conversation between Kevin and myself started getting more football-oriented. I had a lot of fun in learning more about the Lyonaisse team, and exchanging opinions with Kevin about footbal in general; I have to admit that he really is an expert about this wonderful sport. After reaching the stadium, we grabbed a sandwich, and we reached our seats just in time for kick-off. Something that I am very grateful for were the seats that were really close to the pitch (like 15 meters), I could really hear the players shouting and see the sweat on their faces. Overall, I had a very nice experience, first of all getting to know Lyon football club, its history and getting a better insight about the city; but what really is the added value is Kevin, who is a genuine guy, who has a great passion for football. It really felt like going to watch a football match with a real friend. Thanks Kevin for the incredible experience! Francesco
