Are you hoping to go to the 2012 opening ceremony? Well if you are then you are not alone. However all of the tickets have been sold. So how do you go about getting one?
Well unless you have very deep pockets then you are in for a struggle, but let us look at a few ways that you might get a ticket.
Corporate tickets - many of the tickets sold will have been bought by companies wanting to use them for client entertaining. So if you buy in goods or services then start dropping hints to your supplier that you would love to go to the 2012 games but have missed out on tickets. You may well find that one is forthcoming.
Or look to buy a ticket from a company from abroad such as Cosport who are handling a lot of the tickets sales from abroad. You may however need to get someone to buy them on your behalf if they will not deal direct, however try dealing with them directly in the first instance.
One of the best ways to buy them is via Thomas Cook (The games official travel partner) who are offering deals with a hotel thrown in with the price. Personally this is the route I would take to get a ticket.
There will be some more tickets released at the end of the year but it is unclear whether there will be any more opening ceremony tickets release or not. There may be a few returned tickets but they are likely to be small in number.
The one thing not to do is to buy them on the black market, as there will undoubtedly be a large number of fake tickets floating around, and you could find yourself with a wasted journey and a big expense bill if you have paid for transport and a hotel only to find you are refused admission to the games.
You cannot legally buy a ticket off of someone for more than its face value, and if someone does sell you one for more than its face value then this is classed as ticket touting with a minimum fine of �5,000
Also there are dozens of fake websites offering Olympic tickets so be very wary when buying tickets online.
The only official source for tickets is the official London 2012 site, which will have more tickets on sale later this year.
