Registration for 2012 Olympics ticket ballot opens
Sports fans hoping to get some of 10m tickets for London Olympics and Paralympics can join online 'queue' from today
People hoping to get tickets for the London 2012 Olympics and Paralympics can register online from today.
Signing up does not guarantee a ticket but registers users for a public ballot for 75% of the tickets, which will go on sale next spring. Sports fans who register will have their interest noted and get updates on venue test events, competitions and ticket availability.
Another 800,000 tickets for the games will now be available thanks to work at the 2012 venues.
Originally, there were to be 9.2m tickets for the London games – 7.7m for the Olympics and 1.5m for the Paralympics. Now 8m tickets will be sold for the Olympics and 2m for the Paralympics.
Making the announcement in Trafalgar Square, the London 2012 chief executive, Paul Deighton, said: "Anyone who signs up will be in pole position for our ballot of tickets.
"The aim is to make the process as easy as possible and get people thinking about which sports they want to watch from all the different Olympic and Paralympic sports.
"We expect people to be more interested in tickets for some events than others. There is no fairer way for people to get in line for those tickets than by public ballot."
