As night fell, clusters of lights illuminated the surroundings of the massive square.
Many spectators who were fortunate enough to have purchased tickets began to take their seats.
Yes, since it was a celebration banquet, there surely wouldn't be a lack of food.
Of course, because the banquet was held in the square and time was extremely tight, everything appeared rather rough, or to describe it with another word, it was makeshift.
To what extent were things improvised?
Well, it was basically just a round table with plastic stools.
At this time, however, nobody cared about this, and once covered uniformly with red cloth, the overall effect didn't look too bad.
What was more important was the quantity!
According to the official setup, this banquet would have up to 30,000 lucky spectators in attendance, plus some invited VIP guests, bringing the total number to an unprecedented 35,000 people.
Even with dozens of entrances, just getting everyone seated took nearly an hour.
