I visited Paris last year for the first time as I thought I would dislike it. It’s wonderful and I loved it.

Any idea what time the Metro finishes at night?

Paris is a wonderful city.

Not the most controversial of opinions, I know, but hey ho.

I’m imagining the PSG mirror of this thread.

Went three years ago to watch PSG v Marseille. Great city, grounds a dump
and rather moody around there. If it’s of interest you can get single tickets in the home end on their secondary market site, link on psg website, for €265. Pairs start from €550 odd though.

Last arrival at terminus is about 1:30 am, so depending on the line, the last departure from the originating station will be around 12:30 am.

It was, been spruced up though.

Last time I saw PSG was in the week it was bought by the Qataris (so, a long time ago). Pitched up half an hour before kick off, got a ticket from the ticket office for a tenner and watched them beat St Etienne in a half full dump of a stadium. Times have changed.

Last went in this past summer to see a women’s Olympic quarter final. Granted, had great seats just above the dugouts in connection with work, but the Parc was looking magnificent (despite there being nil atmosphere for that particular game).

I lived in Paris for a couple of years back in the day. It's manky, miserable, the Metro stinks, the architecture all looks the same, and the locals are po-faced twats.

London's much better.

Yeah, reckon these are going to be the only seats that will come available to the general public. I understand STH can purchase up to 2 seats per ST, and given there are 37k STH, that will easily mop up the difference between the number of STH and ground capacity.

Was keeping an eye on the site yesterday and you could see all the STH piling in. By the evening, many of those tickets were available on the ticket exchange site. For some STH then, it’s a way of lowering their ST cost over the year.

However, the resale site is an “bourse” type affair, so the price is set freely by the vendor and will fluctuate with demand. Between yesterday and today, the starting price went from 350e to about 220e this morning. Might be worth waiting a few days to see how that stabilises. Have mentally factored in a price of 200e that I could swallow. Any more than that and the fam are saying that the best option is to take them away to a 5-star hotel spa and buy a very large TV… :)

Also, mate of mine popped down the ticket office on the off chance. They weren’t selling any tickets for the Villa game but, surprisingly, they were selling tickets for this Sunday’s classico, even though there are none available online.

So, that might be an option in the 2 or 3 days leading up to the game.

Difference between living in and visiting.

Like any big city, it’s nice if the city’s treating you right. If it’s not, it ain’t. ;)

Looking forward to this one but already nervous for the game.  Going on the Eurostar and staying in the Montmartre area.

There probably isn't a major city in the world where this isn't true.
