Champions League final: PSG to host live screening at Parc des Princes

PSG supporters will have a place to gather for the upcoming Champions League final. Although the match against Arsenal is scheduled to take place in Budapest on May 30 at 6:00 PM, the Parc des Princes will host a special live broadcast for fans in Paris.

A repeat of the stadium screening experience

This initiative follows a similar event held last year during the final in Munich. The club intends to transform its home ground into a festive venue once again. While full details are set to be released this Thursday, supporters are already able to sign up for alerts regarding the opening of the ticket office.

The Parisian club described the Parc des Princes as a legendary location capable of delivering intense collective emotions. The planned evening is expected to include a high-quality artistic and musical lineup, aiming to recreate the strong bond between the team and its fan base seen in previous seasons.

No public fan zones in the capital

In contrast to the stadium event, there will be no traditional fan zones set up throughout Paris for this final. City officials, including those close to Deputy Mayor Emmanuel Grégoire, have confirmed that no such spaces will be established. This decision aligns with recent statements from the Paris police prefecture, which expressed opposition to public fan zones due to safety and security concerns.
