Tickets will be available through all sales channels – online and at the 10 retail outlets. One companion seat is also available to sit beside the wheelchair location. There is a discount available for wheelchair and companion seating.

Where will my family sit?

One member can sit next to you as a companion, the rest of the family can sit in the closest seats available.

I have a physical impairment and am not able to climb many stairs. Can I purchase tickets for easy access seats?

There are not tickets specifically for those with physical challenges (other than wheelchair locations). However, a small number of seats will be reserved for those that need easily accessible seats. When you arrive at the seating area, ask a volunteer to direct you to those seats.

Will there be parking available for those with physical impairments?

There is no parking available at any venue. Refer to www.Lima2019.pe for any information regarding services available.

I have tickets for an event and now I can’t go. Can I exchange them for another event on a different day?

No. There are no exchanges or refunds.

What happens if an event is delayed or cancelled due to weather? Or for other reasons?

If the decision to delay or cancel is made a few hours prior to the event, Lima2019 Ticketing will advise you by email. If there is a delay during the event, an announcement will be made at the venue advising you what to do about your tickets.

Refer to the Terms and Conditions for detailed information regarding delays, postponements and cancellations.

The events I wish to attend are several hours long. Can I enter the venue for only a portion of the event?

Yes. However, this may be a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity for you to attend and support the athletes of all countries.

We encourage you to plan to attend the entire session. The athletes you see in Lima this year you may see on TV competing for Olympic gold in Tokyo next year!

If I arrive late for a session, will the ticket prices be reduced at the gate?

No.

Can you tell me what time a certain discipline will be happening within a session?

For example, in Athletics I really only want to come in time for the Men’s 100m final? The order that events happen can vary within a session so that information isn’t available.

We encourage you to come for the entire session so you won’t miss out on any of the action!

Can I leave tickets at the box office for my friends to pick up?

No, the box office will not accept tickets for someone else. You will have to make arrangements to meet your friends and give them the tickets.

Can I be seated with friends who order separately?

For reserved seating, only people who purchase tickets at the same time will be seated together. For venues with general admission seating, your party can select your seats when you arrive. Be there on time to get best seats.

How long before the start of an event should I arrive at the venue?

Due to the high demands that will be placed on the public transportation system and in order to clear security and locate your seats, it is suggested that you plan to arrive at venues at least 90 minutes prior to the start of the session.

Gates open for most events 90 minutes before the event starts.

What forms of payment can I use when purchasing tickets?

All major credit cards are accepted for online sales, at retail outlets and at Games time box offices.

Any purchases where the name and address of the account holder do not match the name and billing address of the credit card holder will be rejected.

Be sure to create your account in the exact surname and forename as appears on your credit card.

Is it safe to use my credit card?

Online purchases made through credit cards are made in accordance with the security measures established in the Credit and Debit Card Regulations approved by SBS Resolution N° 6523-2013. Any inconvenience please communicate directly with your bank.

How do I know what the ticket prices are in the currency of my country?
