Carrefour, Fnac, Géant, Système U, Intermarché, Auchan, Leclerc, Virgin, Cora, Cultura, Galerie Lafayette, BHV

FNAC ( a French version of a Virgin Megastore) will probably be the easiest to find.

Away fans are usually assigned the Sud Tribune, so try and get tickets near there.

ive noticed a lot of supermarkets in that list pauk egan, but just wondering if all those have ticket outlets at each store throughout the country or is it designated stores in certain parts of the country?!

Just got a call from a friend who is at the Stade de France - large crowd queing there at the moment and the €80 tickets are the only ones that are left.

Maybe demand will be high from the French people after all??

Is it worth sending someone to these ticket shops if that's the case with tickets at stade de france

No. Only some of the bigger supermarkets have ticket outlets which is why it's generally best to pop into a Fnac which generally always has a ticket office if it's in a regional town (only some Fnac's have ticket offices in Paris).

I dunno really - if I was going down the buying tickets in France route id be doing it sooner rather than later - demand seems to higher than normal.

[paul_oshea]

wasn't expecting that, the frogs have heard the rallying call.

I have applied for tickets from the FAI but have a french mate who is going to get them in Paris for me this evening ...he is going over on the Eurostar at 3pm . I reckon this initial jump for tickets by the french will not last and they won't be sold out too early ....remember they have hardly ever sold out that stadium. If I am successful with both FAI and from France. I will be giving tickets to irish fans on the day.

Also people anybody loaded and just wants to be sure of tickets they are available from a relaively safe site www.viagogo.com right now .

Also be sure to see a glut of tickets available on Ebay ....regardless of the FFF saying they are going to clamp down on e sales.

Back in 2004 there was a load of hysteria ragarding tickets and look waht happene then! Don't fret we will all getin

Could be the c*nto trick of selling the dearest tickets first....

Could it just be that each outlet only gets a certain amount of tickets and the cheaper tickets are still available elsewhere? Pretty sure I've heard of this happen before with Ticketmaster in Ireland where Stephen's Green has massive qeues and runs out but then but it's easy enough to pick them up down the country.

[paul_oshea]

Ya of course, they sell the higher premium first where there is more of hte expensive tickets and less of the least expensive.

Just had a mate from luxenbourg go down who got 4 with his irish passport, so thats not a worry as suggested by some previouslly. But he was limited and couldn't get any when he went back later!

Lads, I've just been into my local fnac in Stras, got to the head of the queue by 12h40 and all 20€ and 40€ tickets had gone. dunno if they're releasing them in batches or have bundles reserved for clubs or what but the girl who served me implied that soon all that'd be left would be 100€ tickets...

I got mine a few minutes ago at Virgin in Gare Montparnasse. Went to FNAC on Rue de Rennes first but it was bedlam there. Everybody I know here got four tickets. They did ask for id and proof of address though as well as French telephone number.

[paul_oshea]

ya get all the irish out buying up 4, they will definitely sell them all when we get over.

[StretchRyan]

Just been to local Auuchan In luxembourg at lunch an they are selling tickets too.

But only the 80 and 100 eur ones,there was a queue in front of me of all french who bought the cheap tickets 40/60. No 20 went on sale here.

Was talking to few of these guys and most only buying to sell on to Irish that they work with.

[paul_oshea]

ya a mate told me he had to go over the border from luxenbourg to get them, he could only get 60 euro tickets. He is in west block :S1. Said that the girl wasn't fussed about passport and he didnt have to show it in the end, but that he had to give all his details, but said he reckoned he would be able go back and get more.

He did also say not many of his irish colleagues had gone down yet....

Well theres one of two things going on:

1. They are genuinely interested in getting behind their team and demand is high. In such a case were probably gonna have to be happy with what weve got - (i.e 8,500)

2) They are buying up the tickets in the hope that Paddy is coming with 29000 mates and they can fleece us.

Either way, it seems they wanna take us on in the stands as well as the field - Game on...

Looooooooooowwwwwwwwwwwwww......
