After the tickets for the Lima 2019 Pan American Games Opening Ceremony sold out, the ticket sales for the Closing Ceremony of this top-level international sports competition will open today, Friday.
This was reported by the Lima 2019 Ticketing Manager, Héctor Ramos, who pointed out that there are still tickets available for the Parapan American Games Opening Ceremony scheduled for August 23, 2019.
For this reason, he invited all families to attend the different competitions that have seat availability such as volleyball, softball, hockey, rugby, baseball, athletics, wrestling, boxing, archery, among others.
“The final of the men’s basketball at the Eduardo Dibós Coliseum sold out really fast, but there are still seats for other finals,” he said.
Thus, he urged the public not to wait until the last moment to buy their tickets because they might sell out. He also mentioned that 22 disciplines are qualifiers for the Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games. So, outstanding athletes will participate in Lima 2019.
“Let's learn how to enjoy the Lima 2019 Pan American and Parapan American Games. They’ll help us visit the sports center located in our districts, which are part of the legacy of this international event,” he stressed.
AVAILABLE FOR EVERYONE
The representative of Lima 2019 highlighted that everyone can get the tickets because the prices start at PEN 10 for people with an impairment, 60-year-old senior citizens, and children under 18.
This is why the general ticket cost for all the events (competitions and opening and closing ceremony) goes up to PEN 20. The ticket cost for finals is PEN 30. For children under 18 and 60-year-old senior citizens, there will be a 50% discount on all category tickets.
