The football player Basil Boli will be the first torch bearer, upon departure from Notre-Dame de la Garde. He will send the flame to Colette Cataldo, well-known 83-year-old OM supporter. Later in the day, between Borély Park and Palais du Pharo, the basketball players Tony Parker And Nando de Colo will take turns. It will be the swimmer Frédéric Bousquet, silver medalist in 2008 in Beijing, who will end this phase at the Palais du Pharo. At Marseille letters, at 11:10, the comedian Redouane Bougheraba will carry the flame.

Later, between the Palais du Pharo and the Cité Internationale, we will see the TV host Camille Combal be a torchbearer.
