Animation. One last ride and then go

One last round of the merry-go-round, do you like it? The Thionville autumn funfair maintained despite the difficulties related to the current health context, has, against all expectations, filled up with visitors until the rain and the cold play the spoilsport for the last four days. Sunday, September 27, before the stands definitively lowered the curtain, some brave bundled up braved the showers and squalls to enjoy the party to the end. “It’s not the ideal time to come to the fair, I agree… but we try to adapt our activities according to the rain. At least the advantage on a day like today is that we don’t have to stand in line at the pits, ”smiles Charles, father of two children aged 6 and 9. After two weeks of presence, the fairgrounds curled up in their cabins or under tents would have preferred to end up under the sun. The King Loop, a thrilling ride, runs almost empty, the same goes for the roller coasters and the Booster, the other flagship attraction of the fair. The atmosphere is not there even if the music is in full swing and the sweet smell of frills warms bodies and hearts. Behind her stand, Myriam is preparing waffle dough. “We saw a lot of people. We don’t complain. It will not catch up with the season but it is always that ”.

“We worked well”

A little further on, Ilona turns up the decibels to attract customers. “The season is lost anyway, it will take time to get back on track. Thionville allowed us to restart the machines and see the world, which is good for morale, ”continues the manager of the New Dance Best break merry-go-round. “We had two very good weekends which allowed us to refuel. Given the context, we are rather happy even if compliance with sanitary measures implies that we clean all barriers with virucide after each passage, ”said Roy, responsible for the pirate ship. “We worked well,” continues Gunter, who runs a shooting range. It may also be due to the fact that Metz and Luxembourg canceled their fair… Suddenly, people came to Thionville. But I also believe that there is a desire to go out, to have fun, a need to think of something other than the virus. “
