5G network expansion and service updates in France

Overview

Telecommunications providers in France are expanding 5G infrastructure and service offerings. In September 2026, Orange deployed 5G services in Créances within the Manche department by adding new antennas to existing 3G and 4G mobile sites. This deployment aimed to desaturate the network and improve connection stability in high-traffic areas.

By October 2026, mobile operators introduced new consumer options. La Poste Mobile launched a 5G plan utilizing the Bouygues Telecom network, while Orange introduced a ‘Fast Pass 5G+’ option. This specific service allows users to pay for dedicated bandwidth for 24 hours to maintain connection speeds in high-density locations such as festivals or sporting events.
