THE French are the first visitors of the monument with 19% of attendance, closely followed by Americans who represent 13% of tourists. Then come travelers from the United Kingdom “particularly present during the Olympic fortnight”, specifies La Sete, then the Germans and the Spanish.
From the opening ceremony during which Céline Dion sang The Hymn to Love since its peak in competitions beach volleyball and blind football organized at her feet, the year 2024 of the Iron Lady will have been marked by the Olympic and Paralympic Games, of which she wore the rings for several months.
“She embodied in the eyes of the whole world spirit and energy of the Games,” recalls La Sete. Magnificent scenes which dazzled the whole world, but which had no impact on attendance, the figures being similar to those of last year.
The year 2025 looks as promising as the previous one. “This year, the Eiffel Tower is placing the quality of the visitor experience at the heart of its priorities. Faithful to its ambition for innovation, the monument will offer unique and unique experiencesdesigned to amaze and surprise,” promises the monument management company.
