Fans have been waiting since 6 a.m.

The shopping center did not open its doors to the public until 9:45 a.m. However, dozens of people already formed an impressive queue in front of the entrance to the shopping center located opposite the Docks.

For some, they had even arrived… as early as 6 a.m.! And no matter the cold: “I got up at 5 a.m., I’m from the 12th arrondissement,” says Samuel, 18, with a smile on his face. “It’s important to arrive early, there will be too many people afterwards!” »

I'm happy to be here, I'm going to spend a lot of money for him! I'm going to buy his outfits, his gloves… At least I'll be equipped for his concert!

“We hope he will come”

Others traveled specially, early this morning, from Cannes, “so as not to wait too long, we have the road to redo!” “. Accompanying the two young girls, Théo, 17, admits to listening to the rapper “for 10 years”. He waits, determined, in the cold.

Lillibet, Gaya and Sarah, arrive from Aix-en-Provence and they too are waiting in front of the Terrasses du Port, even though the stores will only open in two hours. “We hope he will come, we still got up at 5 a.m.,” says the first. Before continuing, convinced:

He's been my number 1 artist for two years. I'm 18, I was taking the Baccalaureate when the tickets were on sale, I didn't get a place! I've been listening to Jul since I was in middle school.

A new album on which “we don’t get bored”

As for the rapper's latest album, all three of them listened to it “on the bus, on the way”. They underline the artist's ability “to renew himself all the time. On this album, we never get bored. He’s a real hard worker, whether you like Jul or not.”

In front of the Terrasses du Port, the love (a little crazy?) for Jul was undeniable.
