The new “FELYN” music festival will take place on 19 and 20 June 2020, followed by international hard rock band Rammstein on 9 and 10 July. The Gruss circus has already paid the stadium a visit, and the Cirque du Soleil will be performing from 19 March until 26 April 2020. We have already established a BtoB offering and arranged a private concert for Groupama, our partner. And we expect to announce more exciting events by the end of the year.

It’s now the go- to entertainment and business venue in the east Lyon suburbs. And developments there have only just begun. IN FACT, ISN’T THERE ALSO A PLAN TO BUILD A NEW ARENA? The new Arena dovetails perfectly with our Full Entertainment strategy and OL City’s development. Its main function will be that of an entertainment venue hosting concerts (capacity of 15-16,000), large-scale seminars and conferences (over 3,000 attendees) and sports events (seating for 12,000 spectators). We have also sealed a partnership agreement with the LDLC ASVEL basketball club, which will play its EuroLeague matches there. It will be France’s largest indoor arena outside Paris.

UNIVERSAL REGISTRATION DOCUMENT - OL GROUPE 2018/19 V OL GROUPE AT A GLANCE THE GROUP IS ORGANISED AROUND SIX COMPLEMENTARY SOURCES OF REVENUE TICKETING SPONSORING AND ADVERTISING MEDIA AND MARKETING RIGHTS EVENTS BRAND-RELATED REVENUE PLAYER TRADING (derivative products, OL Images, etc.) Since its new stadium was inaugurated in January 2016, OL Groupe has had full ownership of it, like all the other top European clubs. This ultra-modern, multi-purpose stadium, open 365 days a year, constitutes a major new source of medium-term growth for the Group. In addition, training and developing young players in the OL Academy, one of the best in Europe, remains a pillar of the Group’s strategy. It provides a pipeline of talented young players for the first-team squad and creates substantial value for the Group. Leveraging these strengths and its sound financial condition, OL Groupe continues to pursue a strategy of sustained, elite-level performance by its playing squads to underpin its growth and development, both domestically and internationally. Its objective is to rank among the top European clubs in the medium term. The risks to which the Group is exposed are described in chapter 3 of this Universal Registration Document.
