Train: If you are in Spain, consider taking the train. The Eurostar train service connects London with Paris in about two and a half hours. Additionally, the high-speed train TGV can take you to Paris from several European cities quickly and comfortably.
Accommodation
Paris offers a wide range of accommodation options. If you want to be close to the Accor Arena, you can look for hotels in districts 12 and 13 of Paris, such as Cour Saint-Émilion or Bercy Village, which offer a comfortable environment and easy access to the venue. Another option is to stay in more central areas like Le Marais or Saint-Germain, from where you can access the stadium using the metro.
Getting to the Accor Arena
The Accor Arena is located in the Bercy district, in the southeast of Paris, and is very accessible by public transport. You can take metro lines 6 and 14, which will drop you off at the Bercy station, very close to the stadium. You can also get there by bus or even by bicycle, as Paris has a bike-sharing system called Vélib'.

In addition to the games, the NBA and its partners have prepared various activities for fans. There will be interactive events, meetings with NBA legends, 3x3 basketball tournaments, and trophy exhibitions. There will also be community initiatives such as NBA Cares programs and events for young Jr. NBA participants.
