(21%)) excl exp on infra by ODA
Comparison to other sporting events
◦ Man Utd over the season earnings $ 150 million
◦ NY yankees $ 120 milliion
44. Previous experience from other Olympics
◦ 2004 Athens - small size of city, limited capacity
of venues
◦ 2008 Beijing - artificially low prices
◦ 2000 Sydney - large city, sports loving country
45. How can the Head of Ticketing for the 2012
London Olympics reconcile the diverging needs?
He is expectsed to sell $650 million worth of
tickets, yet the stadia need to be filled and any
decision has to be accepted as fair by the
public…
Maximize revenues
Maximize attendance at all venues and dates
Fill the seats with knowledge spectators
Ensure tickets for the average Londoner
46. Culture and atmosphere of the city
Location of city affects the reach
◦ Beijing, London
Internet ticketing
Global financial crisis
47. Beijing experience
◦ Tickets sold to sponsors, IOC staff, media may go
unused
◦ Spectators purchase tickets for day long events but
attend only few hours
◦ People buy tickets as souvenirs with no intention to
attend
◦ Availability to convenient transport
48. Max revenues are generated by broadcast
rights. $1.7 billion for the beijing games.
Broadcast rights and international
sponsorships are controlled by IOC.
The locog has control over the ticketing
revenues, the domestic sponsorships, and the
licensing (merchandising).
Ticketing revenues fluctuate in a well-defined
bandwidth, with price being highly variable,
The inventory of available seats is mostly
fixed.
49. Beijing saw a lot of short attention-span
spectators, who would leave their seats after a couple
of hours or a couple of events.
Beijing authorities bussed in „artificial‟ spectators
Other budgeted „other events‟, set to amount to
365,000 seats? Maybe some creative events could
boost that number? Or maybe even extend the closing
ceremony to two days?
Although Beijing was far from ticket revenue
maximization, it did manage to sell out the entire 6.8
million stock of tickets, something no other Olympic
game has done since the 1984 los Angeles.
50. Ticket revenue is a complex equation with several tiers.
◦ At the top are corporate tickets, typically
accompanied by special facilities and access.
◦ At the bottom are simple limited-event tickets.
◦ The opening and closing ceremonies are the
blockbusters: held in the biggest venues, fetching the
fattest prices, and certain to sell out.
Historically, prices vary from just below $1000 to less
than $5
51. 80% of olympics tickets are expected to be sold in
the UK
The remaining 20% of tickets are predicted to be
sold internationally.
Experience of previous games is that
◦ majority of attenders come from within 1 hour‟s travel
time;
◦ Most will be day visitors, but some will stay over.
Top countries will be the
us, canada, australia, france, germany, netherlands
, japan (the pattern mirrors normal london
tourism.)
52. Most spectators will see 1 - 3 events over 2 - 3
days, giving ample opportunity for
entertainment in between sports fixtures
Some will stay for the evening
Availability of late-night transport will have an
impact
The 100m men's final is on a Sunday evening,
as is the closing ceremony;
The opening ceremony is a Friday evening.
53. Tickets need to be affordable and
accessible to as many people as possible.
The ticketing plans have the clear aim of
filling venues to the rafters.
All tickets for events in and around london
to include a travel card.
54. Head of ticketing – Paul Williamson
Mechanics at these games

64. Out of the 2.5 m cheap tickets 1 m are for football

many.
Londoners around the Olympic park have been living
on a building site and have not got any concessions.
"There has not been enough done for Londoners to
enjoy a once-in-a-lifetime chance to watch the
Olympic games.
Neale Coleman, the mayor of London's Olympic
advisor, defended locog's strategy he said: "locog have
to strike a balance with accessibility and affordability
while raising a large amount of revenue.
"They have increased the number of tickets available
and that has enabled a more affordable package to be
made available.
