Tickets to the historic event will be available through any Ticketmaster outlet including ticketmaster.com.
Only all-session tickets for the event, which will take place next year from June 25 to July 2, will be available for purchase on Saturday.

Ticket prices are $525, $425 or $325 for the 15 sessions, which include seven morning preliminary sessions and eight evening finals.
New this year, 140 fans will enjoy the view of a lifetime through a limited number of $1,000 tickets, which each offer a seat directly on the pool deck.
GMM: If USA Swimming has a crowning achievement, it is their management and presentation of the U.S. Olympic Trials!
In 2008 the audience was awed all eight days. NBC's broadcast of the competition won the network ratings race. Yes, Michael Phelps and Ryan Lochte faced-off in event after event, and, yes, Natalie Coughlin proved she's the greatest female swimmer on the planet in Omaha, Nebraska. HOWEVER, the 2012 Olympic Trials, according to inside sources, will somehow be bigger, brighter and even better than ever!
Secrets to USA Swimming's new "production additions" have been and will be tightly held until the opening night of the first finals session. You know about the fire on deck, the glowing waterfall, the in-house media profiles, and the Aqua Zone. What more could they do? Apparently, a lot more.
WHAT DO YOU THINK USA SWIMMING WILL DO TO MAKE THE OLYMPIC TRIALS MORE EXCITING IN 2012?

Bianca...it's best swimming competition to attend. Many argue it's a better competition than the Olympics because of the setting and the production.
