We will have to act quickly. The 14,900 tickets could sell out in just a few minutes. Tickets for the 3rd match of the Betclic Elite Finals, between the Mets of Victor Wembanyama and Monaco, scheduled for Thursday June 15 in the prestigious enclosure of the Roland-Garros stadium, will go on sale this Friday at the beginning of the afternoon. noon.
Basketball fans or the curious will have to be vigilant and reactive to obtain the precious sesame. Since the start of the season, the 2,800 places at the Marcel-Cerdan sports hall in Levallois, the usual lair of the exploits of the Mets and “Wemby”, leave almost as soon as they go on sale. The approximately 15,000 tickets for the semi-final against Asvel, on May 30 at the Accor Arena, were snapped up in less than an hour. We could therefore again break a speed record.
To cope with the craze, meet the strong demand from the public and avoid technical bugs, the club has also decided to go through an external service provider for ticketing. To buy tickets, you will need to connect to France Billet.
A fourth round at Roland-Garros could be necessary
It must be said that this third round of the finals, for which the organizers have already received 170 accreditation requests, is highly anticipated. It could be decisive for the title depending on the results of the first two rounds which will take place on Saturday and Monday in Monaco. If one of the two teams wins these first two tricks, it could be crowned in the event of victory at Roland-Garros.
This act 3 could therefore be the last of Victor Wembanyama and the other nugget of the Mets Bilal Coulibaly in France before their flight to the NBA. Expected in first place in the draft on June 22, Wemby should join the San Antonio Spurs in stride. According to the latest specialist estimates, Coulibaly, unknown to the public a few months ago, could be chosen around the 15th position, or even the 10th.
If neither team manages to win the first three matches, a match 4 will be held on Saturday, June 17. Still within the grounds of Roland-Garros. This relocation to the Porte d’Auteuil stadium is also a logistical challenge for the Metropolitans club. The men’s final of the French Open tennis tournament is to be played on Sunday. The dismantling of the facilities of the famous tournament and the configuration in the basketball hall will not begin until Sunday evening.
This is not the first time that Roland-Garros has hosted a basketball match. On October 16, Paris Basketball had created the event by relocating a championship match against… Monaco. But the club had had several months to prepare for the event. 10,424 onlookers and fans of the big orange ball then gathered in the stands of the Central court. They should be more numerous on Thursday.
