RC Strasbourg unveils Meinau programme for Lens visit

RC Strasbourg has planned food, music, family activities and transport options for the Racing-Lens fixture at the Meinau.

RC Strasbourg will turn the Meinau into a full-day fan venue when Lens visit for the second Ligue 1 fixture of 2026/27. The programme covers food, entertainment, family activities and easier travel from Strasbourg station to Krimmeri-Meinau, with trains scheduled before and after the match to reduce traffic and informal parking around the stadium.

The Fan Zone will offer grilled sausages, merguez, ice cream, churros, Brazilian food and waffles. Burger Strasse, Rush and Hoplà will add burgers, wraps, cold sandwiches, drinks and spätzles, while flammekueche will be available in several areas, including the South Stand’s fifth floor. The 90+4 area and the first-level concourse will also host catering outlets.

Before kick-off, DJ Q, D-CLIC, speaker Cédric, Storcki and his dancers will lead the entertainment, alongside Topmusic blind tests, games, pétanque, Mölkky, a photobooth and player-arrival coverage. The Europa-Park Family Zone will feature esports, mini football pitches, colouring, wooden games, virtual reality and creative workshops. Supporters can also exchange duplicate 2026 World Cup Panini stickers in the north-east corner.

The club’s decibel meter returns, with noise above 90 decibels adding €1,000 to a Women of Football social fund. The Schmoutz’Cam, mascot and dancers will be present, while AS Westhouse and Groupement Jeunes Alsace du Nord meet at half-time. After the game, a player appearance, the press conference and DJ Q’s outdoor bodega will form the Third Half. Nine-year-old Milan will receive gifts and a pitchside moment before kick-off.
