National Games tickets go on sale; several events sell out quickly

Tickets for the National Games went on sale online and offline on Thursday, with several events, including the men's U22 basketball finals in Hong Kong and the modern pentathlon in Guangdong, having already sold out.

Tickets for the National Games officially went on sale to the public through both online and offline channels yesterday (Aug 28). The first batch included four events held in the Hong Kong venues—beach volleyball, men's handball, basketball, and rugby sevens.

The most expensive tickets (HK$500) for the men's U22 basketball finals at the Hong Kong Coliseum have already sold out, alongside some HK$200 tickets for preliminary matches. 

Tickets for other Hong Kong-hosted events remain available.

In the Guangdong venues, all tickets for the modern pentathlon have been sold. Partial sell-outs have also occurred for events like the men's U16 football, men's water polo, and freestyle BMX cycling.

The official ticketing website provides details on venues and competition schedules. For most events, a seating map is available, allowing the public to select their own seats and choose between e-tickets or physical tickets. 

A real-name system is in place, requiring buyers to input their ID document number before completing the payment.
