Two days before the Champions League final against Inter Milan, Paris is in turmoil. PSG has never been so close to winning the first C1 in its history, and the authorities are preparing for a potentially historic night of celebration. If the coronation takes place on Saturday evening in Munich, a parade is already planned the next day on the Champs-Élysées, despite the initial reluctance linked to the risks of overflows.

The Parisian explains that the prefecture gave the green light to the event, with a closure of the avenue from 7 p.m. Saturday and a reinforced security device. A framed parade, rather than a wild celebration dispersed in the capital, has been privileged. The mayor of the 8th arrondissement, opposed to this decision, nevertheless fears a rehearsal of the incidents that occurred during the semi-final. In parallel, the Eiffel Tower will light up in the colors of PSG to mark Parisian goals, in the hope of a historic weekend, but above all controlled.
