Tickets for Paralympics

[GeorgeEliot]

Are there any left?

Missed out on seeing Olympic park but would really like to take dc.

Cluttered I got Track Cycling also - been trying for last 3 weeks to get any Velodrome. Couldn't believe it. I had been going on so much also using ticket checker and twitter feeds, so much so that Ticketmaster barred me for 24 hrs last week, I was forbidden from their server! I think for doing too much refreshing. So pleased as I had practically given up. As an added bonus I got £50 opening ceremony at the same time also.

Does everyone one with a twitter account know that you can have certain tweets (like from @2012TicketAlert) sent to your phone as a text message?

There is a minute or two delay, but it's better than nothing when I'm away from the laptop, and I can rush back. I have to switch the phone onto silent once the messages start coming through otherwise the phone goes a bit crazy.

If you click on their profile, then click on the grey person icon next to the blue follow me box it should give you the option to turn on mobile notifications.

[QuiteOldGal]

Peppermintcreams Thanks for that, I didn't know you could get phone alerts. Very handy for when the laptop goes to sleep, Though I have probably got more than my share of tickets now.

Well done for getting tickets.

How many days to go? Oh, yes, three!

[Southwest]

Some excel tickets available now all sorts of stuff

[caramelwaffle]

Lots of tickets available. A strange time to make them all available (post midnight) Lots of Finals tickets as well.

[caramelwaffle]

Lots of finals tickets available right now! (bumping for the late lunch crowd)

Opening ceremony tickets now up for £20.12 :o
Sorely tempted but need to be back in Greenwich at 9am on Thursday- great restraint on my part I think :o

If anyone is still looking, I have Paralympics tickets to sell that I can't use. In our excitement, we bought the first tickets we could actually get and found out later that we can't actually go on that day! They are for Thursday 31st Aug, 9am-1pm, Men's Goalball, Olympic Park, 2 adults, 2 children, £40. Frustratingly, we can't re-sell them through the official website because it's less than 7 days to the event, but I can't bear to think of them going to waste. If anyone is interested, let me know!

[2crazyboys]

Whoops, meant Thursday 30th August. It's been a long day!

[topbannana]

Velodrome tickets for Saturday and Sunday up now- DS will be at Cub camp and would never forgive Dh and I if we went without him :o

[mummynoseynora]

I just saw the velodrome tickets and went to buy them but nope - nothing available!

[squiby2004]

I must have the golden touch! We got athletic and show jumping tickets for the olympics, I have got cat c tickets for both opening and closing of the paras and we are there on the 48th as managed to get Orbit tickets too. Looking at this I realise I am very lucky!

Thank you GeorgeEliot for starting this helpful thread and thank you bisjolympics for putting the link in to www.tickets.london2012.com/browse?tab=para

I have gone in a few times and checked to see what is available and was really delighted tonight to check and find tickets for quite a few things and to finally persuade DH that we really could not miss this and to get tickets for one event! Thanks so much.

[GetDownNesbitt]

I have got Athletics tickets for Saturday! We were already going just with park passes - now we are going into the stadium.

I think I might have weed a little when DH told me...

[Sparklegeek]

I just got Athletics tix too, for Sunday AT LONG LAST. Lots of running finals & kids were only £5, woohoo! There were lots & lots of different ones available this time - I managed to get lots in my actual basket after weeks & weeks of screaming in frustration at that website

[TeamGBsometimes]

I got athletics for 6 September, an evening session. So pleased!

[Caoimhe]

I got tickets today and opted to print at home. That worked fine for the Olympics as the tickets were emailed to me within half an hour. But this time I'm still waiting fir the elusive email with attachment after 3 hours!

[topbannana]

Still no cycling tickets but DS and I are giddy with excitement anyway (despite the 3.30AM start )
I have not given up hope that we will get some at the last minute, if not will keep watching for next week. Very irresponsible to take a day off school so early in the term but.............. :o

[Kbear]

what am I doing wrong? I constantly look at the site and there are never any tickets available - only opening ceremony £300....

[TeamGBsometimes]

Kbear, there was a flurry of tickets at 6 pm. I only knew about them because I have set up twitter text alerts on my phone.

[Italiangreyhound]

kbear I just kept checking and was pleased to find anything available. I am pleased they have been so popular but sorry for everyone's frustrations. I hope everyone gets what they want.

[Kbear]

been checking all day still nothing
