Low price ticket deals for events

-

ORGANISERS of the Birmingham 2022 Commonweal­th Games have unveiled exciting details of nearly 300 events and low-price ticket deals.

They insisted the sporting extravagan­za is fully on track and will be the ‘Games for Everyone’.

And they urged sports fans to start planning their visits and which sessions they want to attend now.

Organisers revealed:

The Games will have tickets starting from just £8 for under 16s and from £15 for adults.

Every single session will have tickets available for £22, including the opening and closing ceremonies and all medal sessions.

There will be 19 different sports on offer with the world’s best athletes set to compete across 11 days of competitio­n.

Registrati­on is now open for a ticket ballot at birmingham­2022. com, with residents from the host region able to apply in July. The main ticket ballot starts in September.

The full event schedule allows sports fans to see the detail of exactly which events will be held in each of the 286 sessions that will feature.

Women’s cricket T20, basketball 3x3, wheelchair basketball 3x3 and mixed synchronis­ed diving will all debut in Birmingham, with the schedule set to includes two ‘Super Sundays’ for spectators to look forward to, with the second set to be the ultimate showcase of women’s sport.

With limited opportunit­ies to attend live sports events in recent months, a huge amount of interest in tickets for the Games is expected, especially as the sports programme is the biggest in Commonweal­th history and Birmingham 2022 ticket accounts can now be set up.
