|
|
FIG's Executive Committee decided that Pesaro, Italy should host the 2017 RG Worlds.
"The EC unanimously assigned the 2017 Rhythmic Gymnastics World Championships to the Italian Gymnastics Federation. The Championships will be held in Pesaro August 29-September 3, 2017."
http://www.fig-gymnastics.com/site/figNews/view?id=1452
and http://www.fig-gymnastics.com/site/figNews/view?id=1456
All I can say is
"The competition will be held from August 29 to September 3, 2017, at the Adriatic Arena, a venue that is well known to the athletes as Pesaro has been a regular stop on the Rhythmic Gymnastics World Cup circuit since 2009.
"I am delighted to see Italy organising the Rhythmic Gymnastics World Championships for the first time," said FIG President Bruno Grandi (ITA). "As Italy has a beautiful and solid tradition in Rhythmic Gymnastics, we are confident that the organisation will more than meet the requirements of the event."
So, 2017 Pesaro, 2018 Sofia and 2019 Baku it is! _________________ "Time is a great teacher; unfortunately it kills all its pupils." |

The Pesaro venue is small and there are no hotels close to it. It takes forever to get a taxi and bus is not frequent enough. Not to mention two airports are so far to the avenue. The Italian fans are great but the venue is really not audience friendly. |

The official site is online and the tickets are up for sale, the weekly one is 40 euros.

I have just tried to buy a weekly ticket and went through the whole process of selecting (infact the best seat abo is 160 Euro for the week and not 40) but then I did not find the place where you can select the payment option. (I only got to select that I want to pick the ticket up at the place...)
Can anyone help me so that I can indeed buy a ticket please?
(I hope to make it to a press accreditation but in case I can't get one I may well atttend as a specator without my camera and bring my equipment for some shootings if people want but I hope for the real action...)
I am also thinking wheater or not I should go for the option with the hotel. As I have not been to Pesaro since 2011 I don't remember how far the Arena is from the city centre and if there are many hotels or not.) How can help? _________________ RG is the true reason to go on in my life! |

When I have problems, I try a different browser without extensions on- I normally have things like adblock and flashblock on. I might have used a Google Chrome installation without extensions/add-ons/whatever they are called. If the site is flash-based it may not work with Apple properly.

Surely you must know of Google Maps? But be careful of them if you print them out. Some magnifications do not have all the streets. I have wasted time on cold evenings walking round in circles because of this 'feature'.
If you want to know where your favourite team is staying, try asking them... |
