Black and Gold faithful, the wait is over: a regular-season game is coming to Paris in 2026, and Sports Fans Travel is bringing Pittsburgh fans along for the ride. The game will be played at the iconic Stade de France — France's national stadium and the only venue in the world to have hosted a FIFA World Cup, Rugby World Cup, UEFA Champions League Final, UEFA European Championship Final, and the 2024 Olympic Games. For Pittsburgh fans traveling to Paris in 2026, this isn't just an away game. It's a once-in-a-generation moment — the first time the Black and Gold have ever played a regular-season game on French soil, and one of the largest NFL international games of the season.
Pittsburgh has one of the most globally recognized fan bases in professional sports, with Terrible Towels waved on every continent and supporter clubs active across Europe. With over 14 million football fans across France and a growing Paris fan base already in place, the 2026 Paris game is arriving into one of the most game-ready markets the international schedule has ever entered. Pittsburgh fans heading to Paris will find a city that's genuinely excited to host them — and a stadium atmosphere unlike anything you've experienced at an away game back home.
Sports Fans Travel has been hosting fans on international trips for years, from Dublin to Munich to London, and the 2026 Paris game is shaping up to be our most spectacular yet. From a Champagne country day trip and a Seine River cruise to an all-inclusive pre-game tailgate steps from Stade de France, every detail is designed so that Pittsburgh fans can focus entirely on the experience. Paris is extraordinary on its own — add a historic regular-season game, a legendary Pittsburgh legend host, and a week of events with fellow Black and Gold faithful, and you have the trip of a lifetime. The Pittsburgh fans going to Paris in 2026 already know: you don't wait on a trip like this. Here we go — because when the Black and Gold take Paris, the city won't know what hit it.
Jerome Bettis, famously known as “The Bus,” was one of the NFL’s most dominant power running backs and a cornerstone of the Pittsburgh Steelers for more than a decade. A six-time Pro Bowler and Super Bowl XL champion, Bettis finished his Hall of Fame career with over 13,000 rushing yards, earning a reputation for toughness, leadership, and clutch performances.

Taylor was great! We had a great time and made several new friends. We appreciated the options for hotels.we are frequent travelers but thought the tips were well thought out for those who may not travel often or who have traveled internationally before.

Dublin trip 2025
We suck at planning things to do when we go on vacation, so having everything planned for us already was great. We didn’t have to think about getting game tickets, plane tickets, book a hotel, or how to go sight seeing because it was all included. For us, this was a fantastic value and experience.
