At a media conference Wednesday where Kajsa Bergqvist was unveiled as an event ambassador, Göteborg 2013 announced that 3-day ticket packages for the event will be released on 7 March 2012.
About 600 of the continent’s top athletics stars from 50 countries will compete at the Scandinavium – Göteborg’s iconic indoor arena – through 1-3 March 2013, with the competition and event entertainment taking place “All Under One Roof.”
Swedish Athletics Association Secretary General Anders Albertsson said, “Alongside the 32nd European Athletics Indoor Championships, there will be a big event in the Swedish Exhibition Centre, which we call the Market Square. Spectators will be able to get close to the stars, see them warm up, and there will even be an area where you can meet the athletes after their competition.”
Bergqvist will be part of the “Modern Swedish Legends” project ahead of Göteborg 2013, with the indoor world record holder in high jump acting as an event ambassador along with other famous Swedish sports stars.
Göteborg 2013 also unveiled Volvo on Wednesday as an official national partner for the event. Alongside International Partners SPAR, Omega, Le Gruyère AOC and Eurovision, Volvo will be the lead Swedish partner with Göteborg Energi.
