MEET THE MINI MIDI BOB
January 21, 2022The Beijing Winter Olympics Organizing Committee announced Monday that tickets for the global competition will not be sold to the public but will be distributed “exclusively” to residents of the country who meet strict COVID-19 requirements.
Organizers previously said in September that tickets would be sold only to people living in mainland China because of “the grave and complicated situation of COVID-19 globally.”
“It was decided that tickets should not be sold anymore but be part of an adapted program that will invite groups of spectators to be present on site during the Games,” the new statement reads.
“The organizers expect that these spectators will strictly abide by the COVID-19 countermeasures before, during and after each event as pre-conditions for the safe and sound delivery of the Games.”
