Off to Shanghai

Q: I am interested in visiting Expo 2010 in Shanghai next year. I would prefer not to be part of a tour group, but to organise my visit as part of an extended trip to China. Could you give me details of the expo dates, ticket availability and prices? - David Gregg

A: Expo 2010 takes place from May 1 - October 31, 2010 with the theme "Better City - Better Life". It is expected to draw around 70 million visitors to Shanghai. The sale of tickets to individuals starts on July 1 and closes on December 21, 2009. Only single day admission tickets will be on sale at RMB 180 for peak days and RMB140 for standard days. From January 1, 2010 - April 30, 2010 you will be able to buy a variety of single day ticket options as well as 3-day and 7-day tickets. Full details are available on the www.expo2010.cn website.
