A North Korean tourism organization has announced pricing for the upcoming return of its “mass games” event, tripling some price tiers from the most recent games and raising the most expensive option to 800 euros per person, according to multiple foreign-based tour companies operating in the DPRK.

The upcoming mass games are slated to begin on September 9 as part of festivities surrounding the 70th anniversary of the country’s founding - the first such event in five years.
