Overview
- USOPC's board, which met Wednesday, said it is monitoring scrutiny of LA28 chair Casey Wasserman and left any decision on his role to the organizing committee.
- The first global sale window runs through April 19, and buyers report scarce low-cost inventory, website glitches and a roughly 24% service fee on top of listed prices.
- LA28 says it sold hundreds of thousands of $28 tickets in the locals presale, plans to release more across future drops, and maintains the average Olympic ticket is under $200.
- Organizers use a registration lottery that assigns purchase time slots and sells by price category with seats set later, while declining to disclose how many tickets are in each drop.
- On Location launched official hospitality packages Wednesday that bundle tickets with lounges and dining from about $1,000 to well over $100,000 as LA28 targets about $2.5 billion from tickets and hospitality.
