On Wednesday, it’s time. French President Emmanuel Macron is coming to Lund for Studentafton. However, getting tickets might be challenging. In the Facebook event, nearly 2 000 people have indicated their interest, but only 200 tickets will be released. All ticket sales will occur digitally.
– The ticket release will happen just like at a Taylor Swift concert, you click on the link and get a place in a queue, says Studentafton’s chairman Frida Eriksson.
In other words, it won’t matter whether you join the queue at 14:30 or 14:59, you will be assigned a random place in the queue at 15:00.
– So that any issues with wifi won’t hinder anyone, says Frida Eriksson.
It will only be possible to purchase one ticket per person. Additionally, you must be a student at Lund University.
– Otherwise, it will be invalidated. We will scrutinize it, says Frida Eriksson.
Tickets will cost 150 SEK. There might also be a second ticket release.
The moderator for the evening will be Ekonomihögskolan’s Sylvia Schwaag Serger.
– She has a strong connection to Lund. We wanted someone who listens to us students, says Frida Eriksson.
Frida Eriksson also encourages all students attending the event to think about audience questions.
– Preferably related to the theme of a ”resilient Europe.” Consider: What do I want answers to from the President of France?, she says.
