Economy Season Ticket Launched

  
Due to popular demand an Economy Season Ticket has been launched for The Hi-Tec World Squash Championships - Manchester 2008 which will allow spectators access to all nine sessions of the event for the specially reduced rate of just £36 for adults (standard rate for all nine session is £70) and £18 for juniors (standard rate for all nine sessions is £47.50).

The tickets will be valid from Monday 13th October through to the thrilling finals day on Sunday 19th October when the world’s best male and female players will be battling it out for the title of World Champion.

The tickets will be valid in front corner seats (the darker orange sections on the diagram) and have been released due to the overwhelming demand from squash fans to be part of the action at what promises to be the world’s biggest squash event.

The economy ticket is the latest innovation to be announced by the Championships’ organisers after exclusive VIP hospitality packages were recently unveiled for the squash extravaganza, which will see the men’s and women’s world championships run together for the first time ever in Britain.

"We are dedicated to making this the best squash Championships ever staged and that means providing spectators with the best value options to see the world’s leading players in action.

"We’ve been delighted with ticket demand so far and it has become clear that fans are keen to be part of these wonderful Championships and visit on multiple days.

"In response to this interest we have come up with the ‘Economy Season Ticket’ which allows both children and adults to make substantial savings while seeing all the action."

   Head of Major Sports Events and Partnerships, Manchester City Council

VIP Packages available

Visitors to this October’s Hi-Tec World Squash Championships – Manchester 2008 will be able to watch the action in style after it was announced that a limited number of VIP hospitality packages will be available from Thursday 16th to Sunday 19th October.

The packages will allow spectators at the National Squash Centre to watch the world’s best players from the comfort of reserved side and back wall seats, and will also include a hot buffet which can be washed down with a selection of wines and soft drinks.

Jim Quigley, Head of Major Sports Events and Partnerships, Manchester City Council, said: “The Hi-Tec World Squash Championships – Manchester 2008 will be the biggest and best squash tournament ever staged so we’re delighted to be able to announce that there will be top level hospitality to complement the world class squash.

“The packages are based on similar options which we trialled at the National Championships earlier this year and proved to be hugely popular. Since the Commonwealth Games in 2002, Manchester has established a deserved reputation of hosting some of the best sports events in the world and visitors to the National Squash Centre in October will be provided with world class facilities.”
