LA28 Announces Verified Multi-Platform Ticket Resale Program Opening in 2027 Los Angeles 2028 (LA28) has announced the launch of its verified multi-platform ticket resale program, set to begin in 2027. The initiative will allow fans to purchase verified resale tickets through multiple platforms, including Ticketmaster, Sports Illustrated Tickets, AXS, and Eventim. This move aims to provide greater accessibility and security for fans as the Games approach their first ticket drop in April 2027. The program’s announcement comes as LA28 prepares for its first ticket draw, with millions of global registrants eagerly awaiting access to tickets for the 2028 Olympic and Paralympic Games. LA28 Chief Executive Officer Reynold Hoover emphasized the importance of ensuring fans can shop with confidence, stating that the multi-platform approach was critical to offering diverse access to verified tickets. “While our resale platforms will not be launched until 2027, having a variety of platforms was essential to providing fans multiple points of access to verified tickets,” Hoover said. Under the program, verified resale tickets for LA28 will only be available through LA28’s Official Secondary Ticket Marketplace, AXS, Eventim, Ticketmaster, and Sports Illustrated Tickets. These platforms will not make LA28 tickets available for resale until 2027, and fans are urged to avoid any resale listings before that date, as those tickets will not have been verified by LA28. AXS Chief Executive Officer Bryan Perez highlighted the role of AXS in providing a secure resale infrastructure, ensuring fans can engage with confidence. Similarly, EVENTIM Chief Executive Officer Greg Klippert noted the company’s commitment to delivering a secure and transparent experience for fans.#ticketmaster #axs #la28 #reynold_hoover #eventim
LA28 Olympics Announce Winners of Locals-Only Pre-Sale Tickets Lottery Southern California residents who secured spots in the locals-only pre-sale lottery for the upcoming LA28 Olympics will begin receiving emails to purchase their tickets starting Tuesday. The initiative, part of the organizing committee’s efforts to distribute seats to local residents, marks the next phase in the ticketing process for the 2028 Summer Games. Over 5 million people had registered for the draw, with many expressing excitement about the opportunity to attend the event. Among the registrants, Zain Delawalla, a Southern California resident, has taken a proactive approach to maximize his chances of securing tickets. He has spent time studying the LA28 website to ensure he can act swiftly if selected as a winner. “LA28, I’m ready to be part of anything and everything,” Delawalla said. “I just want to be part of all the festivities.” His strategy includes filtering tickets by sport, zone, date, and event type, reflecting the detailed options available to winners. According to LA28 organizers, each winning ticket holder can purchase up to 12 tickets for all Olympic sessions, with exceptions for football events and the opening and closing ceremonies. The ticketing process will begin with emails sent to winners on Tuesday, providing them with a time slot to buy tickets between April 2 and April 6. Organizers emphasized that while 1 million tickets will be priced at $28, most will fall under $400. Winners will have 30 minutes from the moment they add a ticket to complete their purchase, underscoring the urgency of the process. For those who did not receive a time slot during the locals-only pre-sale, an email will be sent on April 7 offering a slot for the first general ticket drop or a subsequent one.#la28 #zain_delawalla #southern_california #olympic_tickets #la28_organizing_committee
