LA28 Olympics Tickets Are Almost Here — Here’s How to Get Yours First

If you’ve been dreaming about attending the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles, now’s the time to check your inbox.

Starting Tuesday, March 31, the first wave of email invitations to purchase tickets is rolling out—and millions are hoping to score a spot.

📩 The First Ticket Wave Is Coming

Olympic organizers say more than 5 million fans have already registered for a chance to buy tickets. But not everyone will get access right away.

A select group of fans will receive presale invitations between March 31 and April 4. These invites will go out in waves, so if you don’t see one immediately, don’t panic just yet.

🌴 Who Gets Early Access?

The very first tickets—available April 2 through April 6—are reserved for residents in the Los Angeles and Oklahoma City areas.

To qualify, buyers must use a payment method tied to a billing ZIP code in eligible counties:

• California: Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, Ventura
• Oklahoma: Oklahoma, Cleveland, Canadian

If you’re eligible, you’ll be able to grab tickets for everything—from individual sporting events to the highly anticipated opening and closing ceremonies.

📅 When Are the 2028 Olympics?

Mark your calendars:

• Olympic Games: July 14–30, 2028
• Paralympic Games: August 15–27, 2028

🎫 Ticket Limits & Prices

There are a few limits to keep in mind:

• Up to 4 tickets per ceremony
• Up to 12 total tickets for Olympic events
• Plus, up to 12 soccer tournament tickets (these don’t count toward the main limit)

And here’s the good news—ticket prices are expected to start as low as $28, making the Games more accessible than ever.

⏳ Important Dates to Know

Here’s a quick breakdown so you don’t miss your chance:

• March 31 – April 4: Presale invites sent to LA & OKC residents
• April 2: Presale begins for local residents
• April 7: “Drop 1” invites sent to randomly selected global fans
• April 9: First round of general ticket sales opens

If you’re selected, you’ll get a 48-hour window to shop. Once tickets are in your cart, you’ll have 30 minutes to check out—so be ready.

⚠️ One More Thing…

Officials are urging fans to avoid third-party resale sites for now. A verified resale program won’t launch until 2027, so buying outside official channels could be risky.

For those looking to elevate the experience, premium hospitality packages are already available through the official provider.

Bottom line: the countdown to LA28 is officially on, and tickets are about to be one of the hottest items on the planet. If you signed up, keep a close eye on your email—you might be heading to the Olympics sooner than you think.
