How to Get Olympic Tickets

People have been asking us how we got tickets to the Olympics. Here is how:

1) A year before each Olympic event, you need to log on to the Olympics website of your country. You create an account and create a wish list of the events that you would like to see. We paid for our tickets in May 2023.

2) There will be a raffle and you will be notified a month later if you get the opportunity to buy tickets to the events that you want to see.

3) Once you win this raffle, you have to buy your tickets within a few days.

COST: Each event vary in cost. It really depends on the size of the venue. Athletics and Football are normally held in massive stadiums so the tickets are cheaper at around $100 to $300.

Swimming, beach volleyball, diving, and water polo are held at smaller venues so the tickets are limited and therefore more expensive and harder to buy.

For Paris, opening ceremony tickets were $2,800, Closing Ceremonies for $1750.

This is the general rule for Olympics. They vary a little bit per host country. When I was at the London Olympics, finding tickets was incredibly difficult. I only got to see three events. For the Rio Olympics, it was very easy. Many of the locals cannot afford the price of the tickets so they became available.

For the Paris Olympics, it was also rather easy. We were able to get six tickets. We also won the rights to purchase for opening and closing ceremonies.

If you’re planning to go to the Los Angeles Olympics, their website is already up. You can sign up as early as now for updates- www.LA28.org
