Tickets
Plan ahead. Usually from £13. The Grand Public ticket offer is open for each home match as it is listed; the club does not publish a fixed number of days, and 'M'alerter' style alerts are the official way to hear of later matches.
- Open billetterie.ol.fr/fr; you may be held in a Queue-it waiting room for a minute or two.
- Press 'Réserver' next to the match in 'Les prochains matchs', or use 'Être alerté' for games not yet on sale.
- On the match page, find the 'BILLET UNITE' offer (from EUR 15 for Angers on 31 Oct 2026) and press 'Réserver' on the 'GRAND PUBLIC' line, then 'Choisir mes places'.
- Pick your seats on the stadium plan, log in or create a free OL account, and pay by card.
- Your e-ticket appears under 'Mon compte' then 'Mes billets', and in the Groupama Stadium app under 'Profil' then 'Mes commandes'.
