Match Clermont vs Leicester, 13/01/2023
Date :Friday, January 13, 2023 Kick Off : 02:00 Venue : Stade Marcel Michelin Tournament : Champions Cup Round : pool stage.

A Friday afternoon at 14:00! Really!! Anyone corroborate this? Travel plans will have to be changed if this is actually correct.
European fixtures have yet to be confirmed, this is just a holding date and time for the game.

Watch out for your timings, we did the same, Eurostar only gave us 1 hour to cross Paris, train arrived 25 mins late into Gare de Nord, we missed our connection at Bercy station, it is not easy to find especially if you are in a rush.
Exactly right. Bercy is a nightmare to get to. Allow plenty of time or get a very expensive Taxi. Cheap flights are also available to Limoges with trains from there.

EasyJet - Luton - Lyon £55pp return Friday - Sunday (price doesn’t change a great deal to add Monday into it either) - choose your seats for £3.99 each way.
Train from Lyon to Clermont €35 2.5 hours (only looked at one way so far, if it’s like over here it won’t be a massive jump to go return)

Tickets would be hard to come by potentially, as only available from Clermont office… Available two weeks out from the game in most cases.

I am now planning a trip of Clermont Friday night, then trying to get to Paris for Stade v Lions then on Sunday Racing v Quinn’s

La Rochelle will be tricky and long

Also from previous experience check the coaches from Lyon airport to Clermont they actually as they actually can be half hour quicker

Internal flight might be the best hope for getting from Clermont to La Rochelle.
