For the 31st edition, the stadium is expected to be full once more.” explains Jean-Pierre Schoebel. “The Meeting passed a milestone. Before, people tend to ask who will be competing before buying their tickets. Now, we get asked if there are still tickets available. When one comes to see the Meeting in Monaco, one always come back.” He adds with a smile.
