Match Details

Bordeaux

In Bordeaux, the city that Queen Elizabeth II described as “the very essence of elegance”, there's a lot of sights to see and tastes to taste! (The city's world-renowned wine, for example.) Bordeaux is not far from the Atlantic and was historically an important port town. The old port area, charmingly named the Port of the Moon, now has UNESCO status for its contributions to the exchange of cultural values. The city’s location, its world-renowned vineyards, and its overall elegant vibe make it a perfect spot to unwind from the thrill of a rugby match.
Speaking of rugby, the history of its club, Union Bordeaux-Bègles, is a beautiful demonstration of rugby values: the two clubs united to become one after more than 100 years of rivalry. It doesn’t get any more rugby than that!

La Rochelle

Capital of the Charente-Maritime, La Rochelle is well known for its beautiful port. Protected by the Chaîne tower and the Saint-Nicolas tower, the old port has inspired numerous artists. After a stroll on the quays, the visitor is encouraged to follow the stunning narrow streets of the old town. It is packed with fascinating mansions, Renaissance residences, and old timber-framed houses. The many shops lining the pedestrian streets and under the arcades are perfect for fans of shopping.
The main Renaissance building of the town hall dates back from the 15th and 16th centuries and features a surrounding wall of Flamboyant Gothic style. It certainly is a building not to be missed! A visit of the city carries on with the Fine art museum, the New World Museum which is dedicated to the history of the relations between La Rochelle and the Americas, the natural history museum and the Orbigny-Bernon museum displaying earthenware collections, carvings, and paintings.
The immense Minimes port is entirely dedicated to sailing and attracts sailors from all over the world. Close to the old port, the aquarium of La Rochelle allows those who enjoy the marine world to encounter fauna and flora of the seas and oceans of the globe.
To relax on after visiting the fortified town, there's nothing like a break on the stunning beaches of La Rochelle.

Nantes

Nantes is a gateway to the beautiful northwest of France, renowned for its connection with its history, the arts, and the outdoors. This is evident just outside the train station; the city’s impressive botanical garden is about 50 metres outside the door, and the awe-inspiring Château des Ducs de Bretagne is just two tram stops away. In the city’s old shipyards, you’ll find the Machines of the Isle of Nantes, a collection of machine animals that are a living art installation and one of the city’s must-sees. Green spaces are sprinkled around the city, and beyond the city limits are charming fairytale villages and idyllic farms, the latter of which fuel the region’s dairy industry (which is the strongest in France). This might explain the impressive use of cheese and butter in the area’s food. Bon appetit!
