Individual tickets to the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games will be available starting Monday, February 11, 2013, at 12:00 p.m. (London time) announced CoSport, the leading provider of Olympic Games packages and tickets. In just one year, the Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games, featuring 17 days of winter sport competition, will open in one of Russia's most unique destinations. Fans interested in attending the Sochi Games also will be able to choose from a variety of packages that combine tickets with hotel stays or hospitality services to make their visit to Sochi all the more convenient and enjoyable.
“Demand is strong now, and we expect it to build throughout the year as availability becomes scarce,” said Robert Long, president of CoSport. “There are plenty of options to choose from today, but the best tickets to the best events will go fast - as will availability in the most sought-after hotels.” The results of CoSport's Expression of Interest phase indicated strong interest across all the seven countries in which the company will be selling individual tickets and packages.
Ticket prices start from £16, and a variety of Hotel and Tickets Packages as well as Ticket and Hospitality Pass Packages are available at different price points. “From our most inclusive Hotel and Tickets Packages to individual tickets, CoSport is well-prepared to help meet the unique needs and interests of Team GB fans,” Long said.
“The Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games will offer very exciting events infused with the great traditions of winter sport in Russia. Our fans who want to take part can trust CoSport to provide them with a wonderful experience,” said Andy Hunt, British Olympic Association CEO. “CoSport is both our Authorised Ticket Reseller and a BOA sponsor. Their hard work provides fans of Team GB with access to a variety of event tickets, accommodation and hospitality options while their support is helping prepare our athletes to compete at their best.”
Team GB fans who are seeking individual tickets or packages should create an account on www.cosport.com today. Physical tickets and seat assignments will not be distributed until early January 2014, as soon as the Sochi 2014 Organising Committee initiates this process.
In recognition of Visa's support of the Olympic Games, the British Olympic Association and CoSport are proud to prefer Visa for Sochi 2014 Olympic Winter Games ticket and package purchases.
