Stade De France, a recipe for Human Crush Petition: Signature List Feed http://www.gopetition.com/signatures/stade-de-france-a-recipe-for-human-crush.html Online petition signatures en-us Wed, 22 Apr 2026 05:49 UTC GoPetition RSS Feed Generator Copyright 2026 GoPetition Mr Stephen O'Riordan [Signature #46] https://www.gopetition.com/signature/locate/24219585?utm_medium=rss Horrific experience outside France Ireland game particularly at Gates ABC and D . Crowds forced to access stadium away from their designated gate . Bars outside stadium allowed to remain open causing people to delay entering the stadium and adding to the crowd crush . COVID 19 checks that created even bigger crowds in areas that were clearly not designed to cater for those numbers . A wonder that nobody died or was seriously injured . After Cameroon I would have expected more from France .

I'm happy to give the stadium a little time to share strategies which have worked at several U2 concerts. I just want to see it work, fairly.

Why??? Once in the stadium my wife got caught on a barrier as a stupid arrogant security man pulled and grabbed her to move her out the way as the crowd also crushed her causing her to panick and choke. This should never have happened. Its a disgrace.

They just stood and watched and didn't help anyone getting crushed. It was only the help of others in the queue that more people did not get injured. Security need to take a more active role in allowing people into the stadium and to be more organised before, during and after the shows.

They are very fortunate that no one was seriously injured at this event. i assuer you I will never visit this venue again.

After waiting from the morning, our gate opened the last (and it was a u2 fan pre-sale gate), it was very unsafe too. I love Paris and the atmosphere during the concert, but I am not willing to go to concerts in Stade de France again.

Impensable d'avoir une telle "non-organisation" pour des évènements de cette ampleur.
J'ai pu comparer avec Amsterdam, et la différence fait peur à voir.
Remettez vous en cause Mesdames et Messieurs les responsables !

Crowd control measures are not the product of overcautiousness, they are very necessary, unfortunately it seems that all the preventable deaths that have occurred in stadium crowd disasters in the past mean nothing to Stade De France. I hope that they never ever have to learn the hard way, like all those other stadia.

We arrived at 2.00 at the stadium gate Y there where only maibe 200 people waiting to get in
There where people who where before the gates who where there very early that get out of the queue because of breathing problems ....Everytime when one of the security guys
transmit to the other security people ( To put in there earplugs )....the line goes forward so the people went crushed ...to the gates ..when the gates get open we realised there where

The organisation, or lack of, was a disgrace and it is only good fortune that meant that nobody was seriously hurt. It is an experience I never want to repeat again and it's such a shame because Paris is a beautiful city.

Shame on the stewards who don't care. Shame on the local organisers who can't be bothered to listen. U2 gigs everywhere else are much better organised.
