“Please buy your tickets through the Lima 2019 website (www.lima2019.pe), so you can not only watch the high-level sports competitions, but also cheer on our national athletes,” he said.
Vizcarra advised the population to get their tickets in advance, so they can be part of this celebration that will be held in Peru and will showcase the country’s richness to the world.
“I ask all sport fans to buy their tickets in advance. We don’t want you to miss out a match of your favorite sport because all tickets are sold out.”
Moreover, he was pleased with the ticket sales, as over 100,000 tickets have been sold so far. This number reflects the high expectations all Peruvians have and their enthusiasm for the Games.
“Sport is important. We’re happy because more than 100,000 tickets have been sold. We’re still a little more than one month away from the opening of Lima 2019, and the tickets for the Opening Ceremony are already sold out. It is estimated that a total of 800,000 tickets will be sold.
It is worth mentioning that the price of the tickets for the preliminary sessions of the Pan American Games official competitions start at PEN 20.00. There will be a 50% discount for children under 18, senior citizens and people with an impairment.
