Ticket Website. Chinese citizens can use the China Mobile Expo Ticketing System online.

Even for visitors who already have tickets, it is recommended to make reservations for visiting the
pavilions themselves, which can only accommodate 50,000 people a day. In contrast, some 400,000
visitors are expected to visit the Expo site daily. Groups can book by telephone while individuals
have to use the approximately 200 reservation machines located across the site. Volunteers will be at
the pavilion's entrances for further assistance.
