Any guesses as to how much tickets will be? Also, any ideas on lodging? I think an Air BNB would be the best option, either near the Long Beach venues or near the shooting/equestrian venues.

I was just discussing with my friends about trying to go to the Olympics in Paris since I'll be moving there for a bit this fall to study abroad. (probably still won't be there for Olympics though) but I was saying I honestly have very little desire to go to the olympics because I'd rather sit at home with 5 different screens so I can watch as many as events as possible (from the comfort of my own home) maybe I just don't like big crowds... but going to see 100m finals would be a dream.

That's a fair point. I think it's something I would love to do once or twice, but after that, I'll sit on the couch for 16 straight days and watch all the events, so I don't miss anything.

You give the same exact advice I’d give to anyone else in communications, entertainment, or management.

Wow we are similar. I am pursuing a degree in Mass Communications (Journalism focus) starting in the fall and would absolutely love working at LA28.

 

I am more interested in the broadcasting side but also do work with newspaper (online and print) reporting.

Awesome! Good luck! I'm two years into my degree (halfway done). I've had a blast so far. I've been able to cover some cool events like the NCAA Men's Basketball Tournament (sat front row). My tip: don't say no to anything. If any opportunity comes up, pounce on it. You never know what's going to happen.

I’m happy working either side of the communications industry. I think I prefer journalism a little more to marketing/PR, but my field of study (and soon to be degree) is in public relations.

I've never really looked into the marketing/PR side of the industry. I think marketing would be really interesting, especially after the poor marketing that FIFA displayed last night for the 2026 World Cup logo.

It was a comms position.

Gotcha. I'm sure there will be other positions as 2028 gets closer. I was actually scrolling through their careers page on the LA28 website the other day. My dream scenario would be to cover to cover LA28 for a news outlet. I am pursuing a Journalism degree right now. If I can't cover it, I would ideally be there as a fan.

Ideally, I’d like to work them if I’m in the LA Metro Area. I made it to the last round of interviews for an internship position, but I wasn’t choosen.

Sorry to hear that. What kind of internship position was it for?

Does anyone here plan on attending the LA 2028 games?
