LA28 Opens Randomized Ticket Draw as Record 1.5 Million Register on Day One

Early April brings time-slot notices followed by a locals-only presale, with public purchase windows later in the month.

Overview

  • Registration for the LA28 Ticket Draw runs through March 18 on the official site, assigning random purchase windows rather than first-come sales.
  • Emails assigning time slots will be sent March 31–April 7, and the locals presale runs April 2–6 for eligible ZIP codes in five Southern California counties and three in Oklahoma.
  • Ticket Drop 1 purchase windows for the general public are scheduled for April 9–19, with up to 12 tickets per registered account and automatic entry into later draws until that limit is reached.
  • Organizers plan roughly 14 million tickets overall with prices starting at $28 and about one-third under $100, with event-level tiers revealed when sales open.
  • LA28 reported more than 1.5 million registrations from 150 countries in the first 24 hours and acknowledged long virtual-queue waits during the launch.
