A printing error on tickets for the upcoming Commonwealth Games opening ceremony has left organisers embarrassed, with Gold Coast 2018 Commonwealth Games Corporation (GOLDOC) chief executive Mark Peters the blaming the mistake on human error.
Around 14,000 tickets issued by Ticketek were accidentally printed with ‘Thursday 4 April’, when in fact, April 4th falls on a Wednesday.
Emails have been sent to ticket holders explaining the mistake and assuring them them the misprinted tickets for the opening ceremony are still completely valid.
