Over the first 9 months of the year , which were marked by a winter season that was virtually devoid of sales at ski resorts and the closure of most leisure parks from the end of October until early May / early June , sales totaled € 68.8 million , versus € 669.9 million for the first 9 months of 2018/2019 . 3rd quarter : Consolidated sales for the Group from April 1 , 2021 , through June 30 , 2021 The reopening of the leisure parks occurred in staggered fashion last year between the end of May and the beginning of June , whereas this year they reopened gradually between early May and early June .
