Tennis Canada – Tickets for Canada vs. Great Britain now available for single day purchase

Toronto, December 13, 2016 – Tennis Canada announced Tuesday that additional tickets for Canada’s upcoming Davis Cup by BNP Paribas World Group first-round tie versus Great Britain will be released on Thursday, December 15 at 10 a.m. ET. Tickets for the tie, being held from February 3-5, 2017 at The Arena at TD Place in Ottawa, will be available for single day purchase.

The new tickets being released are those returned to Tennis Canada from mandatory allotments given to the International Tennis Federation, international sponsors, and the visiting nation.

“The response in Ottawa to this event has been absolutely fantastic, and we are pleased to be able to release more tickets to our Canadian fans,” said Gavin Ziv, vice-president of professional and national events, Tennis Canada. “These are great seats that are available and if someone can’t make it to the whole three days, they can now select a session that works for them. We’re looking forward to February and can’t wait to put on a world-class tie in front of such a passionate, full and loud crowd.”

While the majority of seats are now being released on a single-day basis, a very limited number of full-event packages will remain available for purchase on a first-come, first-serve basis.
