The Games Organizing Committee announced the results of the re-lottery of tickets, which was originally scheduled for the 6th, in response to the possibility that the Tokyo Olympics spectator limit will be revised due to the government's event restriction standards. I decided to postpone it to the day.
About the Tokyo Olympics spectators Five parties, including the Organizing Committee, the government, and the IOC = International Olympic Committee, will be accommodated at all venues last month if priority measures such as spread prevention are lifted based on government standards. In principle, we have decided to limit the number of people to 10,000 within 50% of the capacity.
Since the opening and closing ceremonies, as well as some dates for seven sports such as land and soccer, have exceeded this limit, the Organizing Committee will re-draw tickets for the general public and announce the results before dawn on the 6th. I was trying to do it.
However, if the priority measures such as prevention of spread issued in Tokyo etc. are extended, it is necessary to review the upper limit of the Olympic spectators, so the Organizing Committee will announce the result of re-lottery of tickets on the 10th of this month. I decided to postpone it before dawn.
At the same time, the acceptance of ticket refunds for applicants will be changed from 10th to 20th of this month at 11:59 am.
If the priority measures such as spread prevention are extended, the government's event restriction standard is within 50% of the capacity and the upper limit is 5000 people, and the government plans to decide on the response on the 8th of this month.
After that, the Organizing Committee and others will hold another meeting with the five parties to decide how to treat the audience.
