Ticket sales for Paris concerts fall 80% since attacks: Promoters

-

Ticket sales for concert in Paris have fallen by around 80 percent in the week since the French capital was hit by a series of attacks, promoters said Friday.

"It's a wave of shock," a spokesman for Prodiss, the music industry producers group, told AFP, saying the figure was based on data from 20 of the city's biggest promoters.

Of the 130 people who were killed in the jihadi attacks last Friday, most died at a concert by the US group Eagles of Death Metal at the Batalcan venue in eastern Paris.
