Do not book or seek out stadium tickets—they do not exist. Walk the Champ-de-Mars for 15–30 minutes while visiting the Eiffel Tower; for a concrete substitute, book an official Eiffel Tower timed ticket as soon as your desired date opens, ideally stairs to the second floor plus summit elevator if available.
Free to enter — no ticket needed.
Do not book anything for “Eiffel Tower Stadium”: it was a temporary Paris 2024 venue on the Champ-de-Mars in the 7th arrondissement and has been dismantled. Visit the former footprint as part of a free Champ-de-Mars walk. If you mean the Eiffel Tower, book directly through the official Eiffel Tower ticket office as soon as sales open—up to 90 days ahead for elevator tickets, especially for summer, school holidays, sunset, or summit access.
When to go: Early on a weekday for quiet Champ-de-Mars photographs, or at blue hour for the illuminated Eiffel Tower. For an Eiffel Tower ascent, choose the first morning slot or a late-evening timed slot; avoid weekends, French school holidays, and midday.
There is no stadium entrance or queue to beat. For the former site, arrive around first light on a weekday; the Champ-de-Mars and Trocadéro become heavily crowded later in the day and in the evening.
There is no Eiffel Tower Stadium to enter: it was a temporary Paris 2024 structure on the Champ-de-Mars in Paris 7th and has been dismantled. For its former footprint, use Métro École Militaire (Line 8) for the south end of Champ-de-Mars, or Bir-Hakeim (Line 6) / RER C Champ de Mars–Tour Eiffel for the Tower end; then walk into the park. If visiting the Eiffel Tower instead, approach its East or South garden security entrances and arrive 15–20 minutes before a timed ticket; use only a small daypack, as there is no luggage storage and bags over 40 × 60 cm are refused.
Worth pairing: Eiffel Tower · Champ-de-Mars · Musée du Quai Branly – Jacques Chirac · Trocadéro
Eiffel Tower Stadium (Stade Tour Eiffel) was a temporary open-air Paris 2024 arena built on the Champ-de-Mars in Paris’s 7th arrondissement, beside the Eiffel Tower—not in Paris 15 Vaugirard. It hosted Olympic beach volleyball and Paralympic blind football for roughly 12,000 spectators, then was dismantled after the Games; no stadium, entrance, seating, museum, or ticketed venue remains.
It is worth knowing as a striking example of Paris 2024’s use of landmark city settings: the beach-volleyball grandstands beneath the Eiffel Tower created some of the Games’ signature images. For current travelers, however, it is only a former footprint within the Champ-de-Mars, worthwhile if you are already walking the park or interested in Olympic legacy. Skip a detour if you expect a stadium tour, sports event, Olympic displays, or a recreated arena view.
Before you go
No. Eiffel Tower Stadium was a temporary Paris 2024 arena on the Champ-de-Mars beside the Eiffel Tower, used for Olympic beach volleyball and Paralympic blind football. It was dismantled after the Games, so there is no stadium entrance, seating, tour, museum, events calendar, or remaining infrastructure to visit.
No. The former venue stood on the Champ-de-Mars in Paris’s 7th arrondissement, at the foot of the Eiffel Tower. Listings placing it in Paris 15 Vaugirard are inaccurate.
No. There are no stadium tickets, walk-up sales, timed entries, or stadium queues because the venue no longer exists. If you mean the Eiffel Tower itself, buy a timed ascent ticket from the official Eiffel Tower ticket office rather than a reseller.
For a specific summer, school-holiday, evening, or summit visit, book through the official Eiffel Tower ticket office as soon as dates open: elevator tickets to the second floor or summit are generally released up to 90 days ahead, while stairs tickets are generally released up to 60 days ahead. If summit tickets are sold out, book the second floor rather than paying inflated reseller prices. Fit visitors can choose stairs to the second floor and an elevator onward to the summit.
Its footprint was on the Champ-de-Mars below the Eiffel Tower. It is worth a brief stop only if you are already walking through the park, interested in Paris 2024 history, or want low-angle Eiffel Tower photographs. Do not make a special detour expecting Olympic structures, signage, or a recreated beach-volleyball setting.
Allow 15–30 minutes for a Champ-de-Mars walk and photographs. There is no venue to enter. If you are also ascending the Eiffel Tower, allow roughly 2–3 hours door-to-door for security, queues, lifts, and time on the platforms.
