London Lightning tickets on sale Thursday

It's the day London basketball fans anxious to take in some live action have waited nearly two years for.

Single-game tickets for the London Lightning's tenth season at Budweiser Gardens go on sale Thursday.

Fans can purchase tickets to any of the Lightning’s 12 home games this season starting at 10 a.m.

The Lightning will play their first home game since March 2020 this Saturday when they welcome the KW Titans. The game has the potential to be played in front of a packed house as Ontario lifted all capacity limits on sports venues earlier this week. In addition to that, proof of vaccination is no longer required to enter the venue. Face coverings are still mandatory.

The Lightning's 2022 season includes three home games against American based teams the Flint United, Syracuse Stallions, and Lansing Pharaohs.

Tickets can be purchased online at www.budweisergardens.com or in-person at the Budweiser Gardens’ Box Office from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Monday to Friday.

The London Lightning's home schedule for the 2022 season is as follows:

Saturday, March 5 at 7 p.m. vs KW Titans Sunday, March 6 at 2 p.m. vs Lansing Pharaohs Wednesday, March 9 at 7 p.m. vs KW Titans Saturday, March 12 at 7 p.m. vs Sudbury Five Sunday, March 13 at 2 p.m. vs Windsor Express Saturday, March 19 at 7 p.m. vs Syracuse Stallions Thursday, March 24 at 7 p.m. vs Sudbury Five Sunday, March 27 at 2 p.m. vs Windsor Express Sunday, April 3 at 2 p.m. vs Flint United Wednesday, April at 7 p.m. vs KW Titans Monday, May 2 at 7 p.m. vs Windsor Express Thursday, May 12 at 7 p.m. vs Sudbury Five
