Paris Saint-Germain pays welcomes pop culture to the Parc des Princes with the Let's Play Paris fair

For the first time in its history, the Parc des Princes is opening its doors to a major fair. On 24-25 September, Paris Saint-Germain’s home ground will play host to the inaugural Let’s Play Paris fair, a brand new pop culture event. In doing so, the stadium will provide a setting perfectly in keeping with the passions of the new generations.

The fair promises to take families, manga and gaming fans and inquisitive types on quite a journey. On the programme are a whole host of activities and attractions, including a giant Asian street food market, stands devoted to the world of manga and pop culture, eSports tournaments, cosplay competitions, Asian dance shows, K-Pop concerts, and meet and greets with iconic celebrities.

Voice artists and video makers will be sharing their passions at talks on pop culture, with Stéphanie Excoffier, the French seiyû or voice actor of the character Luffy in the manga series One Piece, and David Krüger, the French voice of Dwayne Johnson and Chris Pratt, among those signing autographs for their fans.

Paris Saint-Germain Chief Brand Officer Fabien Allègre said: “We are proud to host, for the very first time, a major pop culture fair at the Parc des Princes. It gives us great pleasure to be working with an event devoted to the passions of the new generations. Our stadium already welcomes a wide range of events and shows, including football matches, concerts such as the ones we hosted this summer, and now the latest cultural events.”

More than 20,000 people are expected to come and share their passions over the course of an exciting weekend.
