Six million Olympic tickets sold in Los Angeles
The organizing committee for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympics announced that ticket sales have exceeded six million tickets, with the first-phase sales, during which most of the available tickets were sold, nearing completion. The Olympics are expected to set a record for the number of medals awarded across 353 events, an increase from 329 events in the Paris Olympics. The upcoming phase will operate on a first-come, first-served basis, with previous ticket purchase restrictions canceled and additional quotas opening for all sports based on availability, without the need for registration through a lottery. For the first time, sports such as flag football and squash will be included, while sports like baseball, softball, cricket, and lacrosse are making a comeback after absence. The organizers have taken advantage of the long period since Los Angeles was awarded the Games in 2017 to sell tickets and secure sponsorship contracts early, with the committee’s president expressing the world’s enthusiasm for the 2028 edition. Los Angeles is the third city to host the Olympics, after 1932 and 1984, and will also host the Paralympics for the first time.
