Paris La Défense Arena, also called Plenitude Arena, stands in Nanterre at La Défense. Christian de Portzamparc designed it for the rugby club Racing 92. The infobox lists Racing Arena as owner, and the article says Live Nation was set to acquire it, subject to approval. Groundbreaking was on December 2, 2013, and it opened on October 16, 2017. The cost was 360 million euros. The article names no style or materials.

It has a fixed roof, originally planned to be retractable, and a movable stand. The complex also holds 33,000 square meters of offices, 300 student rooms, and shops including a club shop, a brewery and a gourmet restaurant.

Capacity is about 30,680 for rugby, 45,000 for concerts after a 2024 increase, and as low as 5,000 for some indoor sports. The article gives no hours or ticket prices.
