“Les Fanzones Pas Parisiennes” is opening two giant venues for the 2026 World Cup in Asnières and Rueil-Malmaison
For the 2026 FIFA World Cup, Fanzones Pas Parisiennes is opening two giant venues west of the capital: the Bistrot Splash in Asnières-sur-Seine (92600), featuring three LED walls along the banks of the Seine, and Madame Soleil in Rueil-Malmaison (92500), on a rooftop suspended 14 meters above the ground. The Bistrots Pas Parisiens group, in collaboration with Stéphane Rotenberg, is offering an alternative to traditional Parisian fan zones, in partnership with M6. From June 16 through the final, both venues will broadcast all matches on state-of-the-art LED screens, with access available through advance ticket sales.
What are the “Non-Parisian” Fan Zones for the 2026 World Cup?
The “Fanzones Pas Parisiennes” consist of two venues transformed into XXL viewing areas for the 2026 FIFA World Cup: the Bistrot Splash in Asnières and Madame Soleil in Rueil-Malmaison. The concept is based on non-stop broadcasts of all the matches in two radically different yet complementary venues. The Bistrots Pas Parisiens group, which now has 15 locations in western Paris, is partnering with M6 to offer this dual experience. So, rather than a single fan zone right in the city center, fans will have two distinct settings to choose from: a laid-back riverside spot on one side and a rooftop with panoramic views on the other.
The shared promise? To enjoy every match in a welcoming atmosphere, among friends, under the sun, and by the water. From now on, cheering on Les Bleus takes place in a setting designed to rival the summer terraces of the south.
Stéphane Rotenberg and the group are banking on the diversity of fan profiles. Some want to be right by the water; others prefer to be up high with a view of the city. Furthermore, the geographical spread between Asnières and Rueil-Malmaison helps relieve congestion in western Paris on game nights.
This decision is also part of a strategy for controlled ticket sales. The “Fanzones Pas Parisiennes” operate exclusively through advance ticket sales, which avoids the endless lines seen at traditional municipal fanzones.
What is the concept behind Bistrot Splash in Asnières-sur-Seine?
Bistrot Splash, located at Port Van Gogh in Asnières-sur-Seine (92600), offers a laid-back summer atmosphere along the Seine. Highlights include three giant LED walls spread across three distinct areas, each designed to cater to all types of fans.
“The stage is set to follow Les Bleus in an atmosphere that feels just like vacation.”
First: a pool to cool things down between halves. Second: a peninsula to enjoy the view of the water during kickoff. Third: a fire pit to keep the liveliest evenings going after the final whistle.
As for the decor, palm trees, striped lounge chairs, and tricolor flags create a Mediterranean postcard scene just twenty minutes from Porte de Clichy. To make a reservation, call 01 47 98 30 45.
- Address: Port Van Gogh, 92600 Asnières-sur-Seine
- Screens: 3 giant LED walls
- Amenities: swimming pool, peninsula, fire pit
- Broadcast: All 2026 World Cup Matches
- Admission: Advance tickets required
Who is this first fanzone intended for?
Bistrot Splash caters to groups of friends who want to combine watching a game with swimming. Extended families will also find it enjoyable, thanks to the three separate areas, which allow everyone to choose the atmosphere they prefer.
Fans looking for a relaxing break between matches will enjoy the peninsula. On the other hand, those who want to really get into the spirit of things in the evening will want to settle in near the fire pit, where the energy naturally builds after kickoff.
What is Madame Soleil, the rooftop fan zone in Rueil-Malmaison, like?
Madame Soleil is taking a completely new approach: the fan zone is set up on a rooftop suspended 14 meters above the ground, at 1 Place Line Renaud in Rueil-Malmaison (92500). Here, four giant LED walls transform every match into a 360° spectacle, complete with a panoramic view of the city.
The goal is to create an immersive experience: no matter where a fan is sitting on the terrace, a screen remains within their field of vision. As a result, there are no bad seats and no blind spots during the decisive moments of the game.
The rooftop also retains its green vibe: banana trees, potted palm trees, rattan furniture, and globe lamps. As a result, the match experience blends seamlessly with that of a classic after-work gathering, without altering the venue’s character.
How is this different from a traditional fan zone?
Unlike the free but crowded municipal fan zones, Madame Soleil focuses on managing capacity. Advance ticket sales guarantee a seat, drinks and snacks, and a clear view of the screen.
The rooftop, perched 14 meters above the ground, also offers a photogenic setting—a rarity in the Île-de-France region. What’s more, the panoramic view of Rueil-Malmaison adds a visual dimension that’s missing from the giant screens installed in public squares.
How do I make a reservation, and how much should I budget for the non-Parisian Fanzones?
Access to the “Fanzones Pas Parisiennes” is available exclusively through online presales at bistrot-splash.fr for Asnières and madame-soleil-rooftop.fr for Rueil-Malmaison. The advance reservation system ensures smooth crowd management from June 16 through the 2026 FIFA World Cup final.
The drinks and snacks menu is curated by Pas Parisiens, staying true to the group’s reputation for fine dining. Pas Parisiens bistros offer approachable cuisine created by renowned chefs, including Michelin-starred chefs such as Glenn Viel, Danny Khezzar, and Gilles Goujon.
The exact cost depends on the game you choose and the time slot. For key matches (round of 16, quarterfinals, semifinals, and the final), it’s best to book several weeks in advance, as capacity is limited by the nature of the venues.
Which venue should you choose based on your fan profile?
For a relaxing atmosphere with lounge chairs and your feet in the water, head to Bistrot Splash in Asnières. The setting along the Seine and the pool create a summer retreat, perfect for watching afternoon games in the sunshine.
For an immersive and photogenic experience, Madame Soleil in Rueil-Malmaison is the place to be. The 14-meter-high rooftop and four LED walls transform the final-round evenings into a true urban event.
Fans who come in groups can even switch it up: group stage matches along the Seine, and knockout stage matches on the rooftop. Also, since both venues belong to the same group, the drinks and snacks experience remains consistent from one location to the next.
Which games are being broadcast?
The two non-Parisian Fanzones will broadcast all the 2026 World Cup matches, nonstop. This includes Les Bleus’ matches, of course, but also major showdowns like Brazil vs. Argentina and England vs. Germany.
The partnership with M6 ensures live broadcasts on state-of-the-art LED screens. Now, fans can watch a tournament match without worrying about technical glitches or poor image quality.
With Les Fanzones Pas Parisiennes, the Bistrots Pas Parisiens group is reaffirming its mission: to offer fans a bold, friendly, and decidedly different alternative to traditional fan zones. From the banks of the Seine in Asnières to the suspended rooftop in Rueil-Malmaison, western Paris now boasts two hubs designed for fans to cheer together all the way to the 2026 FIFA World Cup final.
