A T T E N T I O N!
If you’re going to the 2012 London Olympics and have purchased INDOOR VOLLEYBALL TICKETS then you must read these IMPORTANT REMINDERS sent to us by the London 2012 Ticketing Team.
Below is the official press release:
“Please read each one carefully as important details, such as when to arrive and what you can and can’t bring, may vary.
Be prepared for security checks when you arrive: this will be like taking an international flight at an airport. It will be busy and you will have to queue, so get there early. Aim to be at Earls Court up to two hours before your session starts.
Bring as little as possible with you:
One small soft-sided bag is allowed per person – this must fit under your seat. There are no storage facilities available. You can bring food, provided it fits in your bag, and an empty plastic water bottle to fill up inside the venue. OYou cannot bring in liquids over 100ml. Read the full list of prohibited and restricted items.
Leave plenty of time to travel:
London will be extremely busy. The recommended stations for your venue are Earls Court Underground station – via the District line – and West Brompton Overground. Use the spectator journey planner to plan your journey and, if necessary, book your travel in advance. Don’t forget your free Games Travelcard for London zones 1–9 on the day.
Remember the only way to pay is by Visa (debit, credit or prepaid card) or cash:
For details about the services and facilities available in your venue, read the venue information online. There are no ATM cash machines available at your venue.
Expect to queue to leave the venue:
Volleyball is not a timed sport, so sessions may finish later than scheduled. Make sure you leave plenty of time to exit the venue and make your onward journey – especially if you’re going to another event afterwards – and think about using an alternative station such as West Kensington, Barons Court or Gloucester Road. It’s especially important to plan your onward travel if you have a ticket for a late session – night buses run from Hammersmith station, around a 20-minute walk away.
Ticketing Terms and Conditions also apply.
Ticket holders aged 16 and under must be accompanied by an adult. Please keep your ticket with you at all times. If you decide to leave the venue, you won’t be allowed back in.
Things change, so check online!
View the latest sports schedule now as there may have been changes since you received your tickets. Just before you set off, check your journey for any delays or disruptions.
You should also check the weather forecast and come prepared: although your venue is indoors, you may need to queue outside.
Best wishes
