Sale of 7.5 million Olympic Games tickets begins in Rio de Janeiro

The most reasonable of the 7.5 million tickets are 40 reais and all buys can be paid for in up to five portions. The least expensive tickets at London 2012 were 20 pounds, at the time about $32. The most costly tickets in Rio for the athletics, basketball, beach volleyball and volleyball finals are valued at 1,200 reais, far over Brazil's base month to month compensation of 788.


Tickets for the prominent opening ceremony will cost up to 4,600 reais. The declaration came the same number of Brazilians struggle to keep their heads above water in the midst of a developing financial crisis. The economy grew 0.1 percent a year ago and is relied upon to shrink in 2015 as sleaze scandals hit investment.

The Summer Olympics competition schedule was additionally released on Tuesday, with eight finals on the last day, Sunday 21 August. The men's football competition is the first game to commence on 3 August, two days prior to the opening ceremony. Tickets for the seven soccer matches booked for Sao Paulo have been kept down because of an impasse over who will take care of everything for the redesigns at the Corinthians stadium.
