The National Games Coordination Office (Hong Kong) (NGCO) announced today that tickets for the second batch of events in the Hong Kong competition region of the 15th National Games (NG) will be available for sale online and offline simultaneously at 10am tomorrow.

The second batch of tickets covers four NG competition events of the Hong Kong competition region, namely golf, track cycling, triathlon and fencing. People can purchase e-tickets through official online ticketing platforms, including the 15th NG official ticketing website or by searching for the “15th NG official ticketing” official mini programme on WeChat, after completing real-name account registration.

The Guangdong and Macau competition regions will also launch ticket sales of 13 events in the second batch, among which six events of the Guangdong competition region, namely football (women's adult), volleyball (men's U20), volleyball (men's U18), rowing, boxing and gymnastics (rhythmic gymnastics), will be available for online sales at 10am tomorrow.

The ticket sale date of another four events in the Guangdong competition region, which are swimming (diving), tennis, volleyball (men's adult), and football (men's U20), will be announced shortly.

Regarding the three events to be staged in the Macau competition region, tickets for volleyball (women's adult) and karate will go on online sales on September 27, and for table tennis on September 28.

Registered users can log in to the official online ticketing platforms, select “Ticket Purchase”, and choose the competition venues, competition events, time and sessions to purchase tickets for events in different competition regions.

Hong Kong residents must use their Hong Kong identity card to purchase tickets for events in Hong Kong and Macau, and their Mainland Travel Permit for Hong Kong and Macau Residents to purchase tickets for events in Guangdong.

The first batch of tickets covers four NG events of the Hong Kong competition region, ie beach volleyball, handball (men), basketball (men's U22) and rugby sevens, as well as 13 events to be held in the Guangdong competition region.

Since the commencement of ticket sales on August 28, enthusiastic responses for finals and weekend matches of beach volleyball and basketball (men's U22) events via online platforms have been noted.

The NGCO has hence adjusted the ratio of online and offline tickets for these two events and those with registration accounts may go to the online platforms again to purchase tickets of these two events.

The Hong Kong competition region has a total of 11 ticketed events covering eight competition events for the 15th NG and three competition events for the 12th National Games for Persons with Disabilities (NGD) and the 9th National Special Olympic Games (NSOG).

In addition to the tickets for the four events going on sale tomorrow and those for the other four events released in the first batch late last month, tickets for three NGD events of the 12th NGD and the 9th NSOG in the Hong Kong competition region, namely boccia, wheelchair fencing and para table tennis (TT11), are planned for release in early October.
