Look no further, there are no more tickets for sale. The Charléty Stadium will be full to bursting this Friday for the Parisian leg of the Wanda Diamond League with over 19,000 seats filled. Assisted by its gala line-up (six Olympic champions from Paris 2024 will be competing!) and the Paris region’s enduring love of athletics, the event has proven to be a big hit.
“A year on from the historic edition of the Wanda Diamond League Meeting de Paris, closely followed by the unforgettable Olympic Games, the Charléty Stadium has sold out for this Friday’s competition, enthused Jérôme Villon, CEO of the FFA (French Athletics Federation), the event organiser. This great success is a sign that our sport is continuing to appeal to and draw in the French audience. I am so looking forward to seeing the huge athletics family – athletes, clubs, volunteers and partners – come together again for what promises to be another memorable evening and a rollercoaster ride of emotions. ”
To follow the competition, those who don’t have tickets can tune into L’Equipe channel, which will provide a free-to-air broadcast on Friday from 20:40 hrs French time.
