About Stade Vélodrome
Stade Vélodrome is a multi-purpose venue in Marseille, France, and the home ground of the Olympique de Marseille football club. It holds 67,394 spectators, which makes it France's second largest stadium after Stade de France in Saint-Denis. It opened on June 13, 1937, with a friendly match in which Olympique Marseille beat Torino FC 2–1. Henri Ploquin of the firm Pollack Ploquin designed it.
As its name suggests, the stadium was first used for cycling competitions, and seating later took the place of the track that circled it. A renovation for the 1998 World Cup raised its capacity from 42,000 to 60,031. Once France won the bid for UEFA Euro 2016, the city announced on June 21, 2010 that the stadium would get another renovation, adding a roof and raising capacity to about 67,000. Building work ran from spring 2011 to summer 2014.
The stadium has hosted FIFA World Cup matches in 1938 and 1998, UEFA European Championship matches in 1960, 1984 and 2016, Rugby World Cup matches in 2007 and 2023, plus football at the 2024 Summer Olympics. In 2016 it became the first stadium in Europe to host three European Championship semi-finals. The 2017 Tour de France time trial of the 20th stage began and ended inside it. Its four stands are named after runner Jean Bouin, 1920s cyclist Gustave Ganay, Chevalier Roze and Patrice De Peretti, a popular supporter of Olympique de Marseille.

- Rippled roof panels
- The wavy roof is covered in small ribbed panels. Print friendly adapts these fine patterns to the print scale; Full detail keeps them on larger prints, and 0.12 to 0.16 mm layers help.
- Slender columns around the base
- Thin columns ring the lower facade beneath the roof. A larger print keeps them separate, and Full detail preserves them.
- One piece with the ground
- Stade Vélodrome is joined to the ground in the exported file, and the four-side check found no floating parts, so nothing needs gluing.
- Pick the detail for your nozzle
- In the Buildings settings, set Landmark detail to Print friendly to adapt thin parts and small details to the print scale. Full detail keeps every modeled feature, for larger prints or a finer nozzle.
- Colors
- Buildings, roads, water and ground arrive as separate filament slots in the 3MF. Stade Vélodrome takes the building color.
- File format
- You get a 3MF for Bambu Studio, OrcaSlicer or PrusaSlicer. Any of them can save it as STL if you need one.
