ISU plans more GP events

[Erin]

I don´t think it will happen already this year. But the dates of Finlandia Trophy 2012 will be 5.-7.10., so start to plan and welcome to Finland! The weather can be tolerable in that season.

Thanks for the dates and the welcome! I had been curious about what the dates were going to be. Good to know not to get my hopes up for a GP, but I'd be interested in going anyway.

And luckily I am from a very cold part of Canada, so I'm not going to be too worried about the weather whatever it is

TEB attendance looked very good this year and the reason was that unsold tickets went on sale several weeks before the event at 1/2 price according to MarieM.

Maybe the decision to make fewer and fewer fans pay more for events isn't working.

Sure, it helps to sell the places to prices everyone can afford !
Because Nice sure isn't full as of yet. With "thoses" prices, why would they be amazed it's not ?

As for Finlandia Trophy, I hope it's an extra GP as well as Korea. Because there was less places for unknown skaters to perform this year !!!
