Following a hugely successful pre-sale window which saw almost 10,000 tickets snapped up, the remaining tickets go on general sale at 9am on Tuesday 15 September.

The London 2016 LEN European Aquatics Championships will run for two weeks from 9-22 May 2016, and will feature synchronised swimming, diving and swimming from the world's elite.

The London Aquatics Centre is home to some of Daley and Peaty’s greatest ever achievements and next year’s European Championships is set to be the biggest event to be held at the venue since the 2012 Olympic and Paralympic Games.

Daley claimed his historic Olympic 10m platform bronze medal on the boards in London in 2012 while Peaty smashed a new world record of 57.92 seconds in the pool in the 100m breaststroke back in April.

With tickets for the Championships available from 9am on Tuesday September 15 at www.euroaquatics2016.london, Daley, who won gold at the London leg of the 2015 Diving World Series in May, wants his British fans to turn out in force.

“To compete at a European Championships in London, ahead of the Rio 2016 Olympic Games, is going to be very special for me. I train at the London Aquatics Centre every day, and love competing there,” he said. 

Peaty added: "The past two years have been incredible and I am very excited about the opportunity to return to European action on home soil ahead of the Rio 2016 Olympic Games."

“I have great memories of the London Aquatics Centre after breaking the 100m breaststroke world record there in April ahead of the World Championships in Kazan, and I am absolutely delighted with what I achieved there."
