Free Tickets for Schools!!

From 25th – 31st May 2010 the BT Paralympic World Cup will return to Manchester, bringing over 400 of the world’s top athletes to compete in a multisport event showcasing four sports. We are delighted to offer your school the chance to experience the action for free!

We are excited that so many schools have applied for tickets, but this does mean that tickets for some sessions are currently unavailable. If when you enter your code it returns a message "Invalid" this means unfortunately no tickets are available for that session.

If more tickets become available through returns we will announce this via our newsletter which you can sign up for here.

Due to an overwhelming response in 2009, many school children unfortunately missed out on the chance to attend the BT PWC as some schools with tickets did not attend on the day, leaving empty seats that we could have offered other schools.

We appreciate that planning far in advance is important for schools and from this feedback along with other comments from teachers last year, we have made some changes to the application process to help you and ensure as many children as possible are able to come and watch the BT PWC.

Here’s how to apply:

• Tickets are available on a first come first served basis and seats are not allocated in the venue
• We ask that you apply only for the number of tickets you require. 
• If, after being allocated tickets, you later find you cannot attend please ensure you contact us as soon as possible so that we can give another school the opportunity and also avoid empty seats. 
• All applications for 2010 will be online meaning you will know instantly whether your school has received tickets which, based on the feedback you gave last year, would greatly help with your planning of the trip. 
• You can apply for up to 25 tickets* for one session which can be used for pupils, teachers and guardians alike. If you would like to attend more than one session you will need to confirm, exit and repeat the order process.
• You will need to enter the promotional code found on your letter to access the free tickets. (If you have lost this code please contact us via the contact us section of our website)
  

We hope these changes will result in a smooth application process so that we do not have to introduce charges in future years.
