Rowing fans will be able to see Helen Glover and her fellow London 2012 heroes in action at the Olympic venue of Eton Dorney this summer.
Tickets are now on sale for the Samsung World Rowing Cup meeting taking place at the Windsor venue from June 21-23.
Among those set to be in action will be Minerva Bath star Glover, former training partner Vicky Thornley and University of Bath graduate Adam Freeman-Pask.
It will be the first time in eight years that the UK has hosted a World Cup event, with more than 800 athletes from around 50 nations due to take part.
London 2012 gold medallist Alex Gregory urged the public to come along and support the home team, who will be battling the likes of Australia, New Zealand, Germany and America for top honours.
"It is an amazing, beautiful venue – you can take the whole family and have a great day out," he said.
"Every single person I've spoken to since the Olympics who went to watch the rowing at Dorney said that the venue was awesome and that they had an amazing day and really enjoyed it.
"I can't stress how much help it gives us on the water when you hear the home crowd cheering. It really makes a difference – every voice gives us a boost so buy a ticket, get down there, enjoy the World Cup and support GB."
Tickets start from £5 for children and £15 for adults. Visit http://www.wrcupetondorney2013.com for details.
