Gift my Olympic tickets

DIDS

Does anyone know if we can just give away our tickets for no money?
I can't attend any of the events I got tickets for and wish to give them to family or friends rather than sell them back or not use them.
Is it possible?

Yes you can. LOCOG stated a while ago that your tickets can be passed on to 'friends and family'. How this will work practically I am not sure as the tickets will be printed with the cardholders name on them when they are delivered. I am hoping they won't need to bring the cardholders ID just to confirm this when you reach security at the venue.

But the answer is yes

Confirm yes. On 2012 website FAQ "What can I do with tickets I no longer want"
Answer is "Our ticketing policy states that tickets are non-transferable. However, providing you as the lead booker are contactable on the day in case of query, a member of your family or a friend may use tickets you can no longer use." So presume that means you don't have to be there which it states elsewhere. Confusing but if contactable, i presume by phone, you family or friend can have your tickets.
