History - The original 1936 stadium - which has seen bullfighting, cycling, athletics, top flight football and rugby - was modernised in 1993 in preparation for being a 1998 World Cup venue. During the revamp, the 1998 Heineken Cup semi-final against Brive attracted a then full house of 26,000 and the 1999/2000 quarter-final against Montferrand a 20,000 crowd. Le Stadium required major repairs after being damaged in a chemical explosion in 2001 but is now fully operational.
