Exactly six months to go
Booked the Meininger Hotel Lyon Centre Berthelot but will probably change that three or four times between now and then.

Anyone know when the tickets for this game will be going on sale? And is there a specific section we should try and get?

Nothing yet, have checked ECPR, Connacht's and Lyon's Official Sites for ticketing details.
Once they come available, we can decide on where we go. this is usually decided during pints in HQ

Always great if we can get everyone closer together.
If there are any updates, we'll pop them on this thread.

Same general area. Note that if you go to the left of the walkway they are €40 and on the right they are €55.
As usual an unnecessary amount of personal data is requested just to sit down for two hours but it is not the worst ticket purchasing process I have experienced (Connacht are the market leaders in making it difficult to give them your money).

We booked the 40 euro ones. The auld French do like to know a lot about you so you can watch a bit of rugby.
