France’s major football stadiums received a much-needed makeover for the Euro 2016 Championships. Some spectacular new arenas were built, others got renovated, while many smaller clubs had already built new smaller stadiums in previous years. However, attendances have only picked up modestly, which is a shame considering the much-improved matchday experience.
