Invictus Games Opening Ceremony Tickets

The impressive line-up for the opening event of the Invictus Games, presented by Jaguar Land Rover, will kick off the four-day sporting event in a spectacular fashion. As well as a fly-past by the Red Arrows and displays by the King’s Troop Royal Horse Artillery, with Bands from the Royal Marines, the Army and the Royal Air Force and the Queen’s Colour Squadron (63 Squadron RAF Regiment), the three Services will also be represented in the parade.

There will also be a performance of an anthem written by Chris Martin from Coldplay as well as a competitors parade which all 400 participants from 14 nations will take part in.

Sir Keith Mills, Chairman of the Invictus Games, said: "The Opening Ceremony of the Invictus Games will be a fantastic way to kick off what we know will be an inspirational four days of sport. The men and women who will be competing have already given so much and we hope the Opening Ceremony will demonstrate to them just how much we recognise this. I'd urge the public to really show their support as well."

It is hoped the Opening Ceremony, which will take place on the South Lawn of Queen Elizabeth Olympic Park on Wednesday 10 September, will be attended by up to 5,000 people. This will include competitors, their friends and families, distinguished guests and members of the public.

The ceremony will also be shown live on the BBC.
