The closest Métro station is Bercy, which also serves the Finance Ministry across the aforementioned boulevard.

It has a seating capacity ranging from 7,000 to 20,300, depending on the event. As part of the 2014–2015 renovations efforts, the arena was renamed to Bercy Arena on 1 January 2015. It was again renamed to AccorHotels Arena in October 2015,[2] until it received its current name in June 2020.[3][4] Since 1985, the arena has hosted the annual Festival des Arts Martiaux.[5]
