Session times have been announced for the Parapan American Games, which begin this weekend. All 13 sports take place in the Guadalajara metropolitan zone. Tickets are available at Expo Guadalajara, at www.ticketmaster.com.mx or (33) 3818-3800, and at the ticket booths outside each venue.

While at first it was presumed that sessions would be unlikely to sell out, at press time Thursday  tickets were no longer available for the swimming competition.  Other sports were still available.  Most tickets cost 10 pesos, except for the opening and closing ceremonies, which range from 300 to 1,000 pesos.

Athletes and officials from several nations, including Canada and the United States, have told this newspaper how much they appreciate support.

Here is the full schedule, including session times and the full addresses (in Spanish) of the venues.  While tickets may well be available at the venue booths on the day, this should not be taken for granted given the massive public  demand during the recent Pan American Games.
