Guangzhou Metro Group has officially launched a series of themed day tickets to welcome the 15th National Games and the Paralympics, blending sports spirit, urban vitality, and regional cultural charm.
The themed tickets come in two variants: a one-day pass (blue) and a three-day pass (pink-orange). Both designs integrate key elements of the National Games, metro features, and the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area (GBA).
The mascots of the Games—"Xiyangyang" and "Lerongrong"—along with Guangzhou Metro's mascot "YOYO," take center stage on the tickets, showcasing lively and dynamic imagery. The designs also incorporate iconic Lingnan cultural symbols like lion dances and landmarks from Guangzhou, Hong Kong, and Macao, highlighting both athletic passion and regional identity. With a fresh, vibrant color palette, the tickets embody the youthful energy of the Games and the city's humanistic spirit.
The one-day pass is priced at 20 yuan per ticket, while the three-day pass costs 50 yuan. These tickets are available for purchase at self-service kiosks or customer service centers in stations near competition venues, transport hubs, and popular destinations.
Initial distribution began in mid-September across major stations, including Huangcun (黃村), Tianhe Sports Center (體育中心), Baiyun Park (白云公園), Conghua Coach Terminal (從化客運站), Jinzhou (金洲), Guangzhou South Railway Station (廣州南站), Guangzhou East Railway Station (廣州東站), Higher Education Mega Center N. (大學城北), Wushan (五山), Linhexi (林和西), Zhuliao (竹料), Airport S. (機場南), Airport N. (機場北), Gongyuanqian (公園前), Chen Clan Academy (陳家祠), and Wanshengwei (萬勝圍). The tickets will gradually roll out to other metro stations in the network, with details accessible via on-site staff.
This initiative not only enhances convenience for residents and visitors during the Games but also serves as a cultural keepsake, capturing the intersection of sports, urban life, and regional heritage.
Whether for commuting or sightseeing, these themed passes offer a unique way to immerse oneself in the celebratory atmosphere of the national sporting event while exploring Guangzhou's dynamic cityscape.
