LA28 Olympic Games Ticket Draw NOW Open to the Public

General public registration now open as excitement builds around Team Ireland’s LA28 base in Long Beach

The road to the Los Angeles 2028 Olympic Games has gathered further momentum, with the opening of registration for the first public Olympic Games ticket draw, giving Irish sports fans their first opportunity to begin planning their journey to LA28.

The launch of ticket registration follows yesterday’s announcement by the Olympic Federation of Ireland (OFI) that Team Ireland House for LA28 will be located in Ovation Square in Long Beach, creating a central hub for Irish athletes, families, supporters and partners during the Games.

Supporters hoping to attend the Olympic Games in Los Angeles in 2028 must register in advance to be included in the ticketing process. Registration allows fans to be entered into the first ticket draw and, if successful, to be assigned a time slot to purchase tickets during Drop 1, which begins in April 2026. This marks the official starting point of public ticket sales for LA28, and early registration is essential.

Registration for the LA28 Olympic Games ticket draw is now open and will remain open until 18 March 2026. Fans will be notified between 31 March and 7 April 2026 if they have been assigned a ticket purchase time slot, with purchases beginning from 9 April 2026. Once registered, supporters remain entered for all future ticket draws until they reach the maximum allocation of 12 tickets, with no need to re-register.

Irish supporters planning to travel to Los Angeles can now look forward not only to the Games themselves, but also to a strong Irish presence off the field of play. Team Ireland House in Long Beach will serve as a focal point for the Irish Olympic community throughout LA28, hosting a programme of events and supporter experiences. Further details on Team Ireland House access, ticketing and the event schedule will be announced closer to the Games.

While athletes and their families will have access to a limited number of tickets through the official Athlete Family and Friends programme, everyone interested in attending the Olympic Games as a supporter is encouraged to register for this ticket draw, to avoid disappointment, regardless of any future athlete-related allocations.

Supporters are also encouraged to subscribe to the Team Ireland newsletter to receive official updates on ticketing milestones, Team Ireland House developments, travel information and key announcements as preparations for LA28 continue.
