The NBA is heading to Paris next week as the Chicago Bulls take on the Detroit Pistons in a regular-season game in Europe.
The Accor Arena will host the highly-anticipated clash on January 19 on what is expected to be a huge night as basketball’s big guns cross the Atlantic. And with the likes of DeMar DeRozan and Zach LaVine in action, there has been huge interest in trips to the French capital.
A study from Hotels.com has found a 55% spike in hotel searches in Paris for the night of the game compared to the same date the following week. Americans and Koreans lead the international fanbase flocking to the city whilst a number of British fans are also expected to make the trip.
