History

About Allianz Riviera

A new stadium in the Var valley was first planned for 2007, but work was halted in 2006 over costs and the project was revived for France’s bid for Euro 2016. Construction began in July 2011 to a design by Jean-Michel Wilmotte, and OGC Nice moved from the Stade du Ray in September 2013, the first match being a 4–0 win over Valenciennes on 22 September. The stadium hosted four matches at Euro 2016 and six at the 2019 FIFA Women’s World Cup, and it houses the Musée National du Sport.
