The United World Games are not just a sporting event – they are an international celebration for young athletes, families and fans from all over the world. To make sure everyone is well prepared, we have collected your most frequently asked questions via social media – and answered them here in a compact and clear format. <\/p>\n

Catering & water: Are there food stands and drinking water stations?<\/strong><\/p>\n

The food court is located in the Players Town – this is where players can get their food and drink with their vouchers, which are included in the starter pack. Tap water can be drunk without any problems in Carinthia, so you can also fill up your water bottles at the venues. <\/p>\n

Do you need tickets to watch the games?<\/strong><\/p>\n

As a fan, you can pick up a Fan Pass on site – the ticket to the opening ceremony is included.<\/p>\n

Are there still places available for the opening ceremony?<\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes, there are still places available! The opening ceremony is a real highlight and takes place in the W\u00f6rthersee Stadium. Tickets can be purchased via Oeticket <\/a>or on site. <\/p>\n

Where can I buy merchandise?<\/strong><\/p>\n

You can buy our UWG merchandise directly at the event site. Shirts, hoodies, caps and more are available there – with UWG branding, of course! Pre-order online<\/a> now and have them personalised. <\/p>\n

Is there a livestream? And will games be available online later? <\/strong><\/p>\n

YES! Selected matches will be streamed live here<\/a>. A video archive will also be set up so that you can access the broadcasts at a later date. <\/p>\n

Will photographs be taken? Will the pictures be published? <\/strong><\/p>\n

Yes – our media team is on the move throughout the entire site. The best moments will be professionally captured. You can find the pictures after the event on our social media channels or in the official online gallery. <\/p>\n

What is the \u20ac5 bottle deposit all about?<\/strong><\/p>\n

For the first time this year there is a bottle deposit system. Each drinks voucher comes with a return voucher worth \u20ac1. Players bring the empty, uncrushed bottle AND the deposit voucher to the deposit kiosk and receive a \u20ac1 refund. You can find out more in our blog post<\/a>! <\/p>\n

Where does CBC (South Africa) play football?<\/strong><\/p>\n
