According to Le Parisien, Emmanuel Grégoire, the 48-year-old mayor of Paris, wants to give a collective dimension to the Champions League semi-final second leg between Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich. Between inviting 500 children to City Hall and displaying digital billboards throughout Paris, the club feels the capital’s support.
“The mayor […] also took the initiative to install 150 illuminated billboards across Paris.”
“A wonderful initiative. According to our information, Emmanuel Grégoire has decided to invite 500 children from clubs on the outskirts of Paris to the City Hall reception rooms for a screening of the Champions League semi-final second leg between Paris Saint-Germain and Bayern Munich this Wednesday (9 p.m.).
The mayor, who had already decorated the City Hall façade in the colors of the capital’s club before the first leg, also took the initiative to install 150 illuminated billboards across Paris to reiterate his support for PSG, with the slogan: ‘All together towards the final!’
With a match that could be very significant in Parisian history approaching, PSG no longer seems to be operating in isolation.” According to Le Parisien, Emmanuel Grégoire plans to welcome 500 children from clubs on the outskirts of Paris to the City Hall reception rooms to watch Bayern Munich vs. PSG this Wednesday at 9 p.m.
This gesture goes beyond a simple public relations exercise: it places the club within a broader context, that of a capital city publicly demonstrating its support. Having already decorated the City Hall façade in Parisian colors before the first leg, the mayor also launched the installation of 150 digital billboards bearing the slogan “All together towards the final!” At such a crucial moment, this institutional support gives PSG a new resonance.
