I wonder if anyone is able to help. I've received my tickets for the 100m final (so excited!) and it's got my seat details on it, yet I've so far been unable to find a seating chart anywhere online to work out where I'm sitting and more importantly what my view will be like.
Has this information not yet been released? It seems strange for it not to be at this late stage.

You should have a decent view where ever you sit, as that was part of the focus of the design, though of course if your in the front, lower tiers you'll have a closer view of the action.
BTW, congrats on getting the 100m tickets...:)
That too. The seating plan was in the tickets I got also, although I think maybe if you buy tickets from other agencies you might not get the guide.
So Pee where are you sat?
@Department, I'm in block 256 which I'm happy with, as I was a bit worried I'd be on the other side of the stadium away from the track.
Which price category were your tickets?
Ah, that's useful information, thanks! I've yet to receive my tickets for the same session - they're category A so I can only presume the allocated block will be somewhere around block 110. I'd be surprised in Cat A tickets are in the upper tier. But, if they were, I'd still be happy with seats at the front of blocks near the finish line.

Wow, I tell you what, if I'm on the back straight, I'll be mightily pissed off!
Can anyone help with that?
Thank you
Unless someone who has been there for the test events can help the chart you've got is all that seems to be available.
However there may be a way of sorts. What I was able to do in conjuction with the charts was to look at some high res pictures to get a better idea of where I would be sitting.
Now to be fair this was with hockey and swimming which have smaller venues so I was able to count rows on photos. In both cases the actual physical positions were better than the plan suggested.
tam o. What row are you on in the Stadium? I have my ticket from the test event in front of me.
Hi
I'm in block 218 row 53. They are Cat B tickets. What I really want to know is does block 218 rows start with 1. If so then I'm in the upper tier 53 rows back which I think isn't great for Cat B tickets. Or do the rows start with 1 at the lower tier blocks and work they way up to the upper tiers. So I'm 53 rows back from the bottom and could be near the front of upper tier block 218?
Thank you

Sorry that link is down. Ill repost
Hope this works
Thanks mate.
Your seat looks good. Do you remember if the rows started?
From the bottom or the block?
Row 1 is the lowest and they start from the block because I was in the top tier and walked up 30 rows.
nice view you've got there...:)
Got my category A tickets today for the 100m final. Our tickets are very nearly exactly the same.....block 220, row 41.
I'm very happy with the position....but if I was to be hyper-critical, I'd say for category A, I should really be a bit lower down....say row 10....
i have got tickets to one of the relay finals and i am in block 152 forgot what row but don't think too far back in that block
The first few rows of the lower tier are definitely not protected by the elements. There were brollies up at times at the test event at the front The top tiers are certainly. It depends on your row TV.
How many rows are uncovered?
if i have a brolly up then surely the people behind would complain
I am in row 14 seat 600 of block 152
will that be undercover
