LOS ANGELES () — Registration for the ticket draw for the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles opened Wednesday morning, and some experienced long wait times and troubles with the virtual waiting room.
Those who experience delays or redirects are advised to remain patient, LA28 said in a post on X.
How can you register for tickets to see the Olympics?
Fans around the world can register for the ticket draw through March 18. Registration is the first step to secure a time slot to purchase tickets, which can be done online.
Once registered, participants will be entered into a ticket draw, randomly assigning time slots to purchase tickets throughout multiple future ticket drops.
Time slots to purchase tickets will run during “Drop 1,” which will run from April 9-19. Fans will be notified by email from March 31 to April 7, if they’ve been assigned a time slot, according to LA28, the organizing committee for the 2028 Olympics.
Tickets to the opening and closing ceremonies will also be made available in April.
Single tickets will start at $28 with a variety of options available for individuals and groups interested in attending the 2028 Games.
A special presale for Los Angeles and Oklahoma residents will run from April 2 to April 6 before time slots to purchase are officially available on April 9. Softball and canoe slalom will be held at existing facilities in Oklahoma City to avoid having to build new facilities in Southern California.
Residents of Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside and San Bernardino counties will have early access. In Oklahoma, the counties of Oklahoma, Canadian and Cleveland will have early access.
The ticket process will be operated by LA28’s official ticketing service provider AXS and EVENTIM.
Curated ticket-inclusive hospitality experiences and packages will be offered by On Location. Fans interested in those offerings must also register for the ticket draw through the LA28 ticketing website.
The Games will highlight the best athletes from across the globe, with some hailing from Southern California.
L.A. is a city that athletes like Paralympian Scout Bassett says is rich in diversity.
“I found my people here. I found a place that I belong and I think there are very few cities across this country where you will find yourself… people that look like you, share similar walks of life and journeys. That’s what makes this place so special, and it makes it the perfect place to host a very diverse and exciting Paralympic Games.”
Tickets for the Paralympic Games will go on sale in 2027.
The Olympics will run from July 14 through July 30 of 2028. Events will be held at venues across the region such as Dodger Stadium, Venice Beach, Intuit Dome and the Rose Bowl, among others.
