YelloPark is a planned football stadium to be built in Nantes, France. It is expected to serve as the future stadium of FC Nantes and as a football venue for the 2024 Summer Olympic Games in Paris and the 2023 Rugby World Cup. The stadium will have a capacity of 40,000 seats and its construction is projected to take place between 2019 and 2022.[2][3][4]. It will be built near the Stade de la Beaujoire that it must eventually replace.
On 7 December 2018, the Nantes Metropolitan Council approved the sale of the land which will be used to built the stadium. It also voted for the renovation of the Stade de la Beaujoire.[1][5]
On 26 2019 the project is cancelled.[6]
