I ready someplace that the Paris Friday Night Skate had 28,000 skaters at their largest night skate. Is that true? Here is more information about the event:
PARIS FRIDAY NIGHT SKATE: Video Clips: Paris Friday Night Skate on YouTube Article: Inline Skating in Paris on Friday and Sunday Article: Left Bank Skating, In-Line and En Masse Article: Elisa Marie's Paris Friday Night Skate Experience Official Web Site: Pari-Roller.com Has any other group skate in the world had as many skaters as the Paris Friday Night Skate? Have any you ever done that skate? What is it like? - Kathie |

Only 8,000 skaters on the night when I skated the Pari-Roller in September last year.

There is often more people at the sunday afternoon Paris Skate, as it's open from beginners/familly and it's a smooth 20 km treck in the street of Paris.
http://www.rollers-coquillages.org/ From the organizers: "29.000 in 99, in 2006 1.000 (winter) et 10.000 (june july)." Should be one of the bigest, organized during the whole year (as the friday one).

I was going over the web site for the association; they even got cops on rollerblades to cover the skate! I'm definitely going to make sure my next trip to Paris coincides with one, I'm dying to attend!

Yes, I know this is an old thread.
I have been to 6 of these in the 1999-2001 time period. I can confirm that it did hit the 28,000 number stated above and was regularly in the 20,000 range. I think the smallest I saw on a Friday night Pari-Roller skate was 10,000. I'm surprised that (as stated above) the Sunday daytime skate is now larger. Back then it was ~5000 people, and the level of skateness was lower. I landed here in searching to find out how well attended the Friday night skate is now. Does anyone know? |
