- Doors for the event will open at 16:00 with the meet running from 17:00 to 19:00.
That meet will be the “European derby meet,” featuring all 4 European teams: the Aqua Centurions, Energy Standard, Team Iron, and London Roar. The event will be held at the London Aquatic Center in London’s East End. That pool played host to the swimming competition at the 2012 Olympic Games, where it was designed to hold 17,500 spectators; that has since been reduced to 2,500. That will make it the third-biggest venue in the regular season of the ISL, behind the IU Natatorium in Indianapolis (4,700) and the Duna Arena in Budapest (5,000).
The Roar announced last week that tickets for the London match will go on sale on September 6th via ticket services company See Tickets. Children’s tickets will be available for as low as £11 ($13.44) while adult tickets will start at £21 ($25.66).

SwimSwam taking a respectable, professional reserved editorial position on the fact that this league seems to be sending the car down the hill before the steering wheel is attached. Wonder what the plan is for the events closer in the calendar…I will gladly buy a ticket for the London event where I live, just curious about the launch plan for this endeavor
Is it possible this is the only meet actually happening? With how slow/late they are on all other issues up to this point, I can’t imagine the first meet in 39 days is going to be the first thing that they do on time.
Can’t wait. A swim meet which the BBC are going to show live for once.
