The EEC Announcement:
The basketball action is approaching its climax in Heraklion, Crete, from today until Sunday with the semifinals and finals of OPAP Final 8 Men’s Cup and OPAP Final 4 Cup. The massive presence of fans is an important factor in the success of the event and everyone’s security is always a priority.
The EEC and the Police are asking those who have purchased tickets to come to the Nea Bodrum indoor gym (“Two Aorakia”) in time, so as not to create a crowd. The doors will open at 15:00, that is, two hours before the start of the first race of the day.
The entrance will take place on the pitch strictly and ONLY with the use of the Gov.gr Wallet application. Therefore, it is necessary for those who have not yet installed it on their mobile phone to do so immediately, so that there will be no hassle at the entrance of the fans.
