Course Des 2 Stades - Villeneuve-d'Ascq 2027

Course Des 2 Stades is a running weekend in Villeneuve-d'Ascq connecting two sports venues: Stadium Lille Metropole and Decathlon Arena - Stade Pierre-Mauroy. Participants can select timed 6 km or 10 km races, with children's races of 300 m and 1 km also offered. This event is structured as a mass-participation race, expecting several thousand runners and over 200 volunteers throughout the weekend. The route begins at Stadium Lille Metropole, travels through Villeneuve-d'Ascq on an urban course, and concludes at Decathlon Arena - Stade Pierre-Mauroy, providing an in-stadium finish with refreshments and recovery zones. Music will be present along the course, and the arrangements include supervision, medical support, and secure race logistics. Agence Voix des Sports and Ligue Hauts-de-France d'Athletisme organize the event, with one euro from each entry fee donated to Institut Pasteur de Lille for its research and health-prevention initiatives.
