Travelcards with all tickets?
Hi I'm looking to book some tickets, and I was told that with the Paralympic (sp) events you get posted a travelcard too- which makes going to london much more affordable :) Question, do they send them out with the £5 kids tickets too? Do they send free travelcards out with Olympic events too where the date is far enough…

Can you pay to go in the Olympic Park without a ticket?
Sorry this seems such a basic question, but I can't find the answer anywhere?! No chance of them fixing the problems with the ticket website before the games are over so would settle for being able to watch events at the Olympic park on the big screen...

Can Excel tickets get you in the Olympic Park?

Does a ticket to a venue in the Olympic park give full park access
If I buy a ticket for an event, for example waterpolo, which is held at a venue in the Olympic park, does this give me access to the whole park so I can mooch about all day looking at stuff and soaking up the atmosphere or are there dedicated entrances that only give access to the venues for which you have tickets ? I know…

Free Travelcard but event finishes at midnight
So the free travelcard included with the tickets permits free travel zones 1-9 on the day of the event. I'm going to see baskeball and the final games starts at 10.15 and finishes midnight or later. Therefore will I have to buy a new underground ticket for my return home, as by then I will be travelling on the "next day"…

Sunday parking is generally free in central London as meters only work Mon to Sat. We parked on Grosvenor Square (turn right (with…
