France prepares to face Morocco this Thursday, July 9, at the Gamenson Park fan zone in Périgueux.

The city has set up a giant screen to broadcast the World Cup 2026 quarter‑final, giving Périgourdins free entry from 8 p.m. Fans can watch Les Bleus, who just beat Paraguay 1‑0 on July 4 (2026‑07‑04), while enjoying a lively atmosphere.

Why is Périgueux’s fan zone drawing so many people?

Located just steps from the city centre, Gamenson Park offers natural shade and a gentle slope, perfect for projecting the match on a big screen. Organisers have arranged food trucks and beverage stalls from 8 p.m.: L’Effrontad brewery, A Table Traiteur, Chez Monique, Julien de Savignac and Ciao Bella. This culinary lineup creates a true festive gathering where every fan can sip a beer, bite a burger or enjoy a spritz while cheering France.

What’s at stake for France?

After a five‑game winning streak (5W‑0D‑0L), Les Bleus arrive in top form, led by Kylian Mbappé, the tournament’s top scorer with seven goals in five appearances. The quarter‑final against Morocco is the last hurdle before the semi‑finals on July 14, should France qualify. A win in Périgueux would boost the team’s momentum and fire up local supporters.

How to make the most of the event?

Access is via avenue Georges‑Pompidou, next to the media library, with visual bag checks at the entrance. Gates open at 8 p.m., and service ends fifteen minutes before the final whistle. Fans are encouraged to arrive early to claim a good spot near the screen and enjoy the municipal entertainment.

What lies ahead after the quarter‑final?

If France prevails, the next challenge will be the semi‑final on July 14, followed potentially by the final on July 19, both still at home according to the draw. Success in Périgueux could become a memorable moment for supporters, highlighting the value of local backing in major international tournaments.

In short, the Gamenson Park fan zone provides the perfect setting to experience the France‑Morocco quarter‑final, with a tasty atmosphere, free entry and the certainty of following a team in great form. Don’t miss this rendez‑vous: Les Bleus are counting on you!
