Original Story: Nintendo Australia has released fresh information about the upcoming Nintendo Live 2024 Sydney event, including ticketing information – don’t worry it’s free – but there will be a lottery selection to get in. You’ll also need to have a Nintendo Account to apply.
You’ll be able to apply for a chance to get a ticket from 17th June at 9:00am AEST to 30th June at 11:59pm AEST. Nintendo Account holders who are 18 or over can register for the drawing.
If you’re planning to go in a group of two or more, each attendee will still need their own Nintendo Account and be linked to the same Nintendo Account family group. If you are selected for a ticket, it will be for only one day of the event. Children under 6 will be able to attend with an adult on their ticket, older kids will have to be apart of the family group on your Nintendo Account. Nintendo has a full FAQ here.
