Ahem. Thanks for asking! 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't like tuna, smells like cat food to me... but who knows, maybe they can convince me that it can taste good if it's done well. I had to google Blackcod, that sounds really yummy! Raspberries too. And I'm extra glad now that my son isn't coming to the dinner/gig, he's allergic to (saltwater) fish. 🙈 5 hours ago, krysady said: Asked them and they said No, there's no place for dancing and not allowed to get up, probably for not obstructing the view of others. no worries about the place, we can dance on the chairs or on the tables. Let's see if they also tell Mika about this, or if him and the audience will change the organizer's plans. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dancing on the tables sounds like a very good idea or maybe we could simply go and dance on stage with Mika, that way everyone could see him (and us ) 2 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hero Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 Hi @krysady, did they just send you the menu, or did you ask them for it? Just wondering as I've not had anything from them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hero Posted July 25, 2023 Share Posted July 25, 2023 Today I was mostly engaged in an accessories hunt. (Work? Shh!) Thank goodness for next day delivery. This bag and shoes should arrive tomorrow. Flower bag to complement the tour. Would have preferred a more elegant shoe but I can't do heels. At least these will be comfy and have a bit of bling - if I can get my feet into them. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zita Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 Here is my choice, hopefully with golden shoes and bag it will look elegant enough. What do you think?????? 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I asked for it, indeed And now they also told me there's veggie options as well, here's their answer: "Further to your request, we kindly inform you that we can propose a vegetarian menu, we duly specify it on your reservation." 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hero Posted July 26, 2023 Share Posted July 26, 2023 I spoke to them again about the possibility of group seating, and asked how many people they were expecting. They replied: "We have took note of your preferences for the seatings and we will do our best. We are sure the artist will be happy of your venue. The event will receive 300 persons more or less. We are sorry but other informations are confidentials." 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That would be awesome. That's what I asked, if we could be seated together and close to the stage. I noted that Mika is close to his fans and won't be expecting so many of us at Monaco, so it'll be a nice surprise for him to see some familiar faces.

I was surprised too, but looking online it seems the salle has a max seating capacity of 350. Hm, I found a few websites where it says 950 people for dinner events. It definitely looks more on the photos / videos. Maybe for Mika's gig they've included a dancefloor in front of the stage, so there's less room for tables. As I said before, since we're 10 or even more now ( @krysady are you coming too?), it might make sense to split to 2 or 3 tables, so more of us could be closer to the stage - at these long tables it's difficult anyway to talk in groups of more than maybe 4-6 people, so 2 tables next to each other with 5-6 fans each would be perfect imo. Anyway, it's obvious that we won't get any clear info from them in advance, I guess we'll just have to see when we're there. Thanks for trying. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you can find one. But... If the venue holds 950 people, and they're expecting around 300, there should still be room. Maybe Mika wants to do a small show. Or has insisted on a dancefloor. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe it's 950 for standing concerts? Like the one Mika did in the same venue in 2013. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here's the info on the official website: https://meetings.montecarlosbm.com/en/unique-venues/salle-des-etoiles ... it says 950 people for a sit-down dinner. If you click on "see plan", there's even details of which table layouts allow how many guests - and for the rectangular tables it says 950. So maybe Mika really wanted a dancefloor? Or round tables? A bigger stage? A 2nd piano in the back of the venue? Or they only sold 350 tickets and adjusted the table layout to that? I guess we'll see. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
