Barcelona hosts the world premiere of 'Messi10'

The great show about Leo Messi is a reality. This Thursday, the world premiere of 'Messi10,' the Cirque du Soleil show on the Argentine star, was held in Barcelona. The premiere took place at the Parc del Fòrum and had a large number of personalities from different sectors in attendance.

Messi himself was present, while the Barça board were represented by President Josep Maria Bartomeu, Vice President Jordi Moix, Managers Joan Bladé, Javier Bordas, Pau Vilanova, Jordi Calsamiglia, Emili Rousaud, Oriol Tomàs, Xavier Vilajoana, Marta Plana and Jordi Argemí, the secretary of the Board, Maria Teixidor, the Commercial Area Manager, Josep Pont, the Culture Delegate of the Board of Directors, Teresa Basilio, and the CEO Òscar Grau.

The show began at 9.00pm CEST, but beforehand the guests arrived via the red carpet. They included Ansu Fati and some of his team-mates, singers Carlos Vives, Dani Martín, Paulo Londra and Nicky Jam, actors Santi Millán and Paz Vega, comedians Carlos Latre and Manel Fuentes, sportsperson Gemma Mengual, cook Carme Ruscalleda and Messi's ex-team-mate, Jose Manuel Pinto, among many, many others.

The show will last until January 2020 and once it finishes in Barcelona, it will move to Argentina. It lasts for 90 minutes, divided into two halves of 45, just like a football match. In addition, the stage is a football field. The show features several acrobatic disciplines, with videos of the Argentinian's special moments. Leo Messi collaborated with the organisers of the show by shooting exclusive images for it.
