Mexico City 2017: Tickets on sale

Tickets for the 2017 Para Sport Festival have gone on sale, with the World Para Swimming and World Para Powerlifting Championships set to be held in Mexico City from 30 September to 6 October. It is the first time that two of Para sport’s biggest competitions are being staged together.

Around 550 swimmers from more than 60 countries are expected to compete at the Francisco Marquez Olympic Swimming Pool, while over 360 powerlifters from 65 countries will gather in the Juan de la Barrera Olympic Gymnasium.

Both venues are located in the same building.

A total of 24,500 tickets will be for sale and will cost MXN 100 (around USD 5.50) for each day, including Para powerlifting competition and Para Swimming morning and evening sessions.
