Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games Mainland Olympians delegation sports demonstrations and variety show to be held this Saturday

******************************************************************************************

     The delegation of Tokyo 2020 Olympic Games Mainland Olympians will give two sports demonstrations in the morning of December 4 (Saturday) and attend the "Mainland Olympians Variety Show" in the afternoon of that day. A Leisure and Cultural Services Department (LCSD) spokesperson today (December 1) reminded members of the public who have purchased tickets for the above events to present them and proof of identity for admission to the venues. Details of the events are as follows:

Badminton, fencing, gymnastics and table tennis demonstrations
Time: 9.30am to 11.30am
Venue: Queen Elizabeth Stadium, 18 Oi Kwan Road, Wan Chai

Diving and swimming demonstrations
Time: 9.30am to 11.30am
Venue: Victoria Park Swimming Pool, 1 Hing Fat Street, Causeway Bay

"Mainland Olympians Variety Show"
Time: 5pm to 6.30pm
Venue: Queen Elizabeth Stadium, 18 Oi Kwan Road, Wan Chai

     There will be no ticket collection service at the venues on the event day. Ticket holders must collect tickets at URBTIX box offices or at the Cityline ticket dispensing machines before the events. Please visit www.urbtix.hk for details of the box offices as well as the ticket dispensing machines.

     Members of the public should allow adequate time to arrive at the venues. Ticket holders can be seated about an hour before each show starts. All persons should undergo security checks before entering the venues. Each ticket holder must produce proof of identity that contains the same name and a photo for checking, or else the ticket holder will be refused entry, and the tickets will be non-refundable. Ticket holders are prohibited from amending information on the tickets or transferring the tickets to others. Audience members, after entry, are advised to retain their tickets for lucky draws and ticket inspection purposes.

     As it will take time to verify personal particulars under the real-name registration arrangement, as well as to have body temperature checked and scan the "LeaveHomeSafe" QR code, the waiting time for the attendees for entering the relevant venues may be lengthened. To avoid missing any of the events, the LCSD suggests that members of the public should arrive early.

     To ensure public safety and order, audience members should observe the house rules and should not bring prohibited items into the venues, or else they will be denied entry or be removed from the venues. The relevant house rules have been uploaded to the LCSD's designated website at www.lcsd.gov.hk/en/tokyo2020/rules.html.

     In the event of inclement weather on the day of the sports demonstrations and the variety show, members of the public should pay attention to the latest announcements.
