December 10, 2014 (Toronto, ON) – Ticket sales for the TORONTO 2015 Pan Am Games are off and running, with 50,000 tickets sold in the first 24 hours since general sales began yesterday at 1 p.m. This is on top of the 160,000 tickets snapped up by those who requested tickets in September’s early access window.

Fans are scoring their dream seats for their favourite sports, including gold-medal matches and the Opening Ceremony, which will feature a one-night-only performance by Cirque du Soleil and the lighting of the cauldron.

There’s still time to get your tickets to be part of the Pan Am Games action and join in on the largest international multi-sport event ever hosted in Canada. Great seats are still available for those who act soon.

“This strong start to ticket sales is great news, not just for the success of the Games, but for the support people are showing for our Canadian athletes. It sends a clear message that we’re behind the largest Team Canada ever assembled,” said Saäd Rafi, chief executive officer of the TORONTO 2015 Pan Am/Parapan Am Games Organizing Committee (TO2015). “We’re excited to host the Americas for this once-in-a-lifetime event in our communities, and with 2015 just around the corner, interest and excitement are accelerating, so get your ticket orders in now.”

Despite strong demand, there are still tickets to some of the most popular sports, including football (soccer), rugby sevens, basketball, track and field, aquatics and artistic gymnastics, but tickets to gold medal games are going fast.
