"I spoke to the PM of Italy and Minister of Culture," Musk wrote on Friday, referring to Italian Prime Minister Giorgia Meloni."They have agreed on an epic location." "If he ever agrees on an actual date, you'll hear it from me. Until then, please assume anything he says has not been agreed on."Livestream will be on this platform and Meta. Everything in camera frame will be ancient Rome, so nothing modern at all.— Elon Musk Italian Culture Minister Gennaro Sangiuliano confirmed speaking to Musk about"how to organise a great charity event evoking history" but said any match"will not be held in Rome.
