“There will be no party, much less with 500 people, only the artist's private presence is planned, but it will be a completely private visit”.
With these words, at the end of the meeting of the committee for public order held in the Prefecture of Naples, the Neapolitan prefect Michele di Bari clarifies the hypothesis of a party at the Pompeii excavations to celebrate the birthday of the pop star Madonna.
Madonna's on Friday 16th August will be “a completely private visit, with elements of cultural curiosity, where I believe there will also be a meeting with the director inside the park” underlines the prefect of Bari.
“There is great cultural attention from Madonna, she loves this archaeological park and can't wait to go there. But there will be no dinner. None of this – he reiterates – there is only a cultural event inside the park”.
As for the measures to be adopted, the prefect limits himself to saying that “they will be adequate”. “Those expected – he specifies – when these events take place with personalities who can attract many people.
As for the possible itineraries, we still have no precise information, these are questions that mature day by day. For now, we are talking about Pompeii".
For the prefect the arrival of the pop star is to be considered “an acknowledgement of the archaeological city projects”.
“Madonna loves Pompeii – he reiterates – and she loves this archaeological park and can’t wait to go there, but it is, I repeat, a completely private visit for cultural purposes”.
