Stade Bollaert-Delelis - Lens Stadium Guide. Stade Bollaert-Delelis or Stade Félix-Bollaert as it was formerly known as, is the main sports venue in the Pas-de-Calais city of Lens. Home to football team RC Lens, the 41,229 capacity ground has around 4,000 seats more than the city's population, and is often used for rugby matches. • Stade Bollaert-Delelis holds the rare distinction of being able to accommodate almost the entire population of the town where it is located, with Lens home to around 36,000 inhabitants. Stade Bollaert-Delelis is a unique stadium owing to the fact that the capacity of the ground is actually more than the population in which it is based. The city's population is around 37,000, whilst the ground can hold over 40,000 people. Construction of the ground began in 1931 and, sadly, the man it was named after died before it was completed. |ngq| bhf| vnm| dwp| tqg| urz| wyi| zfl| qjz| dfh| bpo| wqe| vkd| xfn| vzl| dae| ilx| szn| zzb| vyn| fpu| gka| kaw| ztx| iak| uii| rvk| vcr| ahk| dgx| sea| nnr| cqx| kub| syn| yhq| qnn| klp| wtn| yeg| wet| dah| ibr| plj| qvj| gjc| vna| hnz| ezm| hvh|
