The Orange Velodrome, originally known as the Stade Velodrome, is an iconic stadium in Marseille, France. Since its opening in 1937, it has been the proud home of Olympique de Marseille. The stadium can accommodate 67,000 spectators and has hosted several prestigious international tournaments and matches, solidifying its reputation as a historic football landmark.
The Orange Velodrome underwent a major transformation for the 1998 World Cup, receiving round-shaped stands and increasing its capacity to about 60,000 seats. Further redevelopment for Euro 2016 saw the reconstruction of two principal stands, the creation of a complete cover, and an increase in seating capacity by an additional 7,000 seats.
In 2016, following a naming rights sponsorship deal with telecommunications firm Orange, the stadium was renamed the Orange Velodrome. Despite its name changes and renovations, the stadium continues to represent the rich football history of Olympique de Marseille and stands as a beacon for fans worldwide.
