The world is gripped by the Olympic Games in Paris, and just as captivated by the Eiffel Tower Stadium, the stunning venue for beach volleyball. Nestled in the heart of the city, with the iconic Eiffel Tower as its backdrop, this innovative structure has been universally hailed as extraordinary, creating an unparalleled experience for athletes and fans alike. Major global news outlets have taken notice.
The Washington Post described the venue as "a towering achievement," declaring that "no field, arena, or stadium in Paris—or anywhere else, for that matter—shines brighter than the Eiffel Tower Stadium." The article highlighted the stadium's unofficial Olympic record for selfies taken in a single night and praised the meticulously sourced local sand, chosen to ensure athletes can perform at their best without distraction.
The New York Times echoed this admiration, calling the stadium "iconic" and stating that "of all 32 sports being played in these Olympics, none has a location that rivals beach volleyball." Team USA athlete Kristen Nuss agreed, saying, "This will be a hard one to top. I'm not sure how anyone else could do it."
The Wall Street Journal captured the global sentiment, dubbing the Eiffel Tower Stadium "the greatest stadium on earth." The outlet described the venue as the "drop-dead gorgeous sports arena you never thought Earth needed" and declared it a "must-have ticket for these Games."
