Stade Pierre-Fabre holds 11,500 and is Castres Olympique’s home in the Tarn. Castres is the smallest town to sustain a Top 14 club.
Stade Pierre-Fabre capacity
Capacity is 11,500. The ground was renamed in 2018 after Pierre Fabre, the pharmaceutical founder whose company has bankrolled the club for decades.
Who plays at Stade Pierre-Fabre
Castres Olympique play Top 14 rugby here. They have won five French championships, most recently in 2018.
Punching above the town
Castres has a population of around 40,000. Sustaining a Top 14 side against Toulouse, Bordeaux and Paris makes it the most improbable fixture on the French calendar.
