This new feature will delight viewers, many of whom have been complaining for two years. “No pit for fans? You really listen to no opinion“, “Open to the public, dammit!“, we could read on social networks. This year, finally, the voice of Internet users has been heard. “It's an accomplishment. I'm sure it will give more energy to the show“, reacts co-producer Amadou Ba in a press release. Thus, industry professionals will be joined in the room by fans, associations but also areas reserved for youth.
