London Olympics Tickets: The First Phase Has Commenced

The ticketing phase for London 2012 Olympic Games tickets opens on Tuesday 15 March 2011 and will conclude at 11.59pm on Tuesday 26 April 2011. So if you are a sports enthusiast and had been eagerly waiting for getting the tickets of London Olympics 2012, you can never afford to miss the chance! However, the applications are for residents of the UK and designated European countries. If you are neither of them, do not lose heart. You can still get your tickets, but via your National Olympic Committee (NOC) or National Paralympic Committee (NPC). Check out with your NOCs and NPCs if they have appointed an Authorized Ticket Reseller (ATR) for helping interested people to get their tickets and services relating to the London 2012 Olympic Games and Paralympic Games.

The London Olympics Authorities asserts the fans to be very much specific and not falling prey to bogus websites and organizations claiming to sell tickets of the Games.
