Looks like I'm not exactly going to the Games....but should at least be in California when they are on  so keeping a normal sleep pattern.  These things are important at my age.

For anyone who was involved with buying tickets for Paris 2024, can anyone comment on how LA28's process seems similar or different?  I'm hoping to get tickets so my family and I can go, and I've already found events we'd like to go to (def. won't be medal matches, as I know those will be out of our price range).

 

Seems like Paris had some sort of 'package' deal you had to do, but I haven't seen anything like that for LA28.

 

Also, re: the draw system, was it the case that whenever your time slot became available, you had access to any session?  Or were only certain sessions available?  (And, if so, were different sessions available in a later ticket drop?)

 

Is it the case that preliminary sessions sell out more quickly than medal sessions?  Or vice-versa?

 

(To anyone interested in going: AirBnBs are able to be reserved up to two years ahead of time, so starting July-August, you should be able to make reservations.)

We got another update to the ticket buying process.    It was known already that each email would be limited to 12 tickets in the upcoming drops, but we now learn that football is not included in that limit, and we will be able to purchase up to 12 extra tickets for that sport.    As we live halfway between downtown LA and downtown San Diego we will definitely get some seats for the July 11 matches in SD.  

 

But that's assuming we get a slot in this first draw.  Not even that is guaranteed.   We find out sometime between March 31 and April 6.  Draws open up on April 8.

 

Also the in-house secondary market will not open up until early 2027.

I'm already scared for ticket prices. 5 million ppl signed up for only 14 million tickets (and I think that number is for Olympics and Paralympics)

As long as they are not as outrageous as the FIFA World Cup tickets...

Tomorrow the first people from LA/OKC will be able to purchase tickets.  I suspect Reddit and other places will have screenshots of ticket prices.  (Several people there have already confirmed that they did(n't) get a time slot.)

I am happy that I was s the best Olympic Games in charming Paris.

If waiting is hard, I used this link to log into my account to see if I had a time slot for Drop 1.  (My wife and I both got one...hers starts on the second day, but mine not until the seventh day.)
