MIES (Switzerland)/BEIJING (China) - Fans wanting to watch the vital contests late in the FIBA Basketball World Cup can now buy game tickets for the Final Phase.

The Day Pass is made up of two separate tickets for each game and a valid Chinese ID or a passport is required for purchase.
A maximum of four Game Tickets or Day Passes can be purchased for each single order. The same category has to be chosen for each order.

The City Pass is the second type of ticket to be made available and was only available until May 31 with fans then able to purchase the last two ticket types - Day Pass and Game Tickets - in June.
