That will literally kill the city and convert it into a sort of cringe "open air museum". I live in the region and was considering purchasing a subscription to the theater season. Costly but definitely worth it. Now on top of it I should pay 5โฌ for each time I attend to a show? No, thanks. I believe I'm not the only one of the locals who thinks like that.
I read that residents in the region don't need to pay, only to book the visit through their app. Also, at least for now the ticket will be needed only for specific dates, mostly the weekends
