LA28 has announced that the Ticket Draw for the 2028 Olympics in Los Angeles has now received over 5 million registrations, with that number increasing by an average of 100,000 new registrations each day.
Registration opened on January 14, with a record-setting 1.5 million registering within the first 24 hours. This adds to the milestones that the LA28 group has already accomplished, including $2 billion in commercial sponsorship revenue in 2025.
Fans from all 50 states have reportedly registered, including 194 countries across six continents.
Unlike past Olympic Games, where tickets were sold on a first-come, first-served basis, these games use a lottery system, giving millions of people a chance to experience the games.
The ticket draw closes on March 18th, giving fans another 3 weeks to register. Fan register for the draw and will later be emailed with a timeslot between March 31 and April 7 for that drop or presale after the registration period closes. Tickets will then be available for purchase during that slot, with each timeslot active for 48 hours. Prior to purchasing tickets, fans will be required to make an LA28 ID.
After purchasing tickets, fans who do not reach the 12-ticket maximum (either multiple tickets for an individual session or individual tickets for multiple sessions) will be automatically entered into the draw for additional ticket drops.
Los Angeles and Oklahoma City locals will have a chance to purchase tickets early by using their billing postal codes when registering.
“As a historic Winter Games concludes, we celebrate the incredible athletes and achievements of so many. We are grateful for the millions of people who have expressed interest in joining us in LA in 2028 where more of these stories and dreams will come to life,” said LA28 CEO Reynold Hoover in a report from LA28.
According to LA28, the ticket inventory and prices will differ by sport, venue, and session. Paralympic Games tickets will not begin until 2027.
I cant wait to remain seated with both middle fingers raised when the star spangled banner plays.
“The Road to 2028”. What about 2026?….2027?
I entered to see if I can score tickets to any of the swimming events. Though, the hotel rates will probably cost more than the tickets. Not sure I can afford a hotel anywhere in the city. Maybe I can simply drive back to AZ afterwards without needing a hotel? Or book in Riverside or Palm Springs so I can at least start heading out of the city? Hmmm. Assuming I’ll even still be living in AZ by then.
5 million… broker bots have registered.

The Paris Olympics used the same lottery system
I’m just hoping there is an Olympics at this point
Why wouldn’t there be?
host country keeps bombing others
Maybe it’ll be like the 1980 Moscow Olympics, with many countries boycotting.
I think that a lot of that will depend on whether or not the 2026 mid-term el3ctions are allowed to be free and fair, and whether the 2028 presidenti4l el3ction features a new G0P candidate.
Yall are so delusional. There was a World Cup in Qatar 4 years ago where the entire thing was widely reportedly built on sl*ve labor, and everyone showed up and every stadium was packed. It’s going to happen like normal.
It’s frightening we share space with these people
only internet space. Not physical space. Because they don’t leave their homes.
I wonder if people back in the day thought the same about 1940 Olympics. “We had 1936 Olympics hosted by nazis and everyone was cool with it. The next one will totally happen like normal.”
