Hong Kong residents must use their “Mainland Travel Permit for Hong Kong & Macao Residents” to purchase tickets for events in Guangdong.

Each order is limited to six tickets for the same event session, except for popular events, namely, badminton, basketball (men's adult and women's adult), and swimming, where each order is limited to three tickets for the same event session.

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.

Of the eight competition events in Hong Kong, tickets for which went on sale earlier, enthusiastic responses in online sales of weekend matches of the fencing event have been noted since ticket sales started on September 20.

Hence, the National Games Coordination Office (Hong Kong) will adjust the ratio of online and offline tickets for the fencing event.

The office has also reallocated some originally planned offline tickets to online sales for the beach volleyball and basketball (men’s U22) events to facilitate members of the public in purchasing tickets of the two events through online ticketing platforms.

Tickets for the three competition events of the 12th National Games for Persons with Disabilities (NGD) and the 9th National Special Olympic Games (NSOG), namely boccia, wheelchair fencing and para table tennis (TT11), are planned for release later this month.

Tickets for the 9th NSOG table tennis will be distributed to the public for free, with specific arrangements to be announced later.
