(ATR) Those wishing to attend events at the Buenos Aires 2018 Youth Olympics can begin registering for the Youth Olympic Pass.
Instead of selling traditional tickets, Buenos Aires 2018 is offering an all-inclusive pass that grants visitors access to all four Youth Olympic Parks. Registration for the pass begins at midnight on July 31 on the Buenos Aires 2018 website.
TOP Sponsor Samsung designed the Youth Olympic Pass, which is a wristband containing a chip that allows for entry into the different parks. Those wishing to register for a wristband must provide "basic" amounts of personal information online.
Buenos Aires 2018 said in a release that spectators from outside Argentina can register up to four wristbands under one name. Organizers will then send times and locations for international visitors to pick up their wristbands.
All stadiums and events are general admission, and spectators will be admitted in a first-come, first-served basis. Buenos Aires 2018 will feature 32 sports with 4,000 athletes competing in 286 sport sessions.
