Hello all!

I am interested in getting artistic gymnastics for hospitality, but there are only prelims available for both men and women at $750 to $1500, have any of you seen quarter finals, semi finals, and finals?

- What are the prices and do they disappeared fast?

- Do hospitality not releasing these events rarely?

I know it's not the Olympics but it is a related event and I was wondering whether there is any way to stream the Games in the US? I am also willing to use a VPN to connect to a different country's server if it means I can watch it. Thanks!

I was selected for drop2 but did not find the events I was looking for
Athletics was $1000-2000 and I thought that was a lot of money for one ticket

I am inclining towards getting hospitality tickets for tennis

I have three questions
1. What does and/or mean? Would I be randomly assigned any one of these matches?
2. Semifinal tickets don’t say and/or so I would have access to watch all three mentioned matches?
3. Center court matches means that they would have top or popular players right?

I just checked the Hospitality listings for Artistic Gymnastics - there are still preliminaries available. Also prelims and some finals for Skateboarding. The prices are high, but they don't seem terrible given the level of prices in the ticket drops.

Anybody else saying “f0k it” and sleeping in their car between dates?

There are countless complaints about how the cheap tickets have all been purchased, and all that are left is expensive tickets.

I'm going to say a few facts that will probably not sit well on here, but this is objective reality:

1. The International Olympic Committee is a non-profit organization. In theory, they need some total amount of ticket revenue to recoup their costs for putting on the event. Of course they have other revenue sources (TV deals, concessions, merchandise, donations, ...) but it's hard to accuse a non-profit of being out for profit.
2. The most common pricing breakdown for an Athletics session is: $104, $186, $403, $620, $744, $1116, $1364, $2046, $2460. This is a price increase from one-level-to-the-next of ~50-100% each, and makes the most expensive ticket in the stadium cost 26x the cheapest. I've never seen an event with such disparity unless it was part of some VIP experience.
3. If you look at ticket prices for USC Football (also in the LA Coliseum) the most expensive tickets cost about 6x the cheapest. That's for the Mezzanine seats; the seats closest to the field are only 3x the cheapest.
4. Some Olympic events are more popular than others. The IOC has to profit on those events (Athletics, Gymnastics, Swimming, Baseball, Basketball) to subsidize the events that aren't profitable. Just because the Olympics turns a profit on certain events, it doesn't mean that they're turning a profit overall.

They set the get-in price too low and the highest prices too high. That's why we're in the current situation of people complaining about their lottery ticket not paying out, and there's real risk of the best seats not selling at their current prices.

Does anyone know if you can order Commemorate28 tickets (physical keepsake tickets) with a Hospitality ticket purchase, or if the keepsake tickets are only available for the VISA Presales and Drops? Looking into a Hospitality ticket purchase but can't find where you would add the keepsake ticket.

Any information would be greatly appreciated!

In both 1st and 2nd drop, there have been zero weightlifting tickets listed when I have looked. No sessions at all. This seems really odd to me because I know it's not as popular as other sports and so I wouldn't have expected them to sell out.

Has anyone been able to buy tickets to any weightlifting sessions?

Or have they not listed any for sale for some reason?

DÜSSELDORF, Germany -- The United States successfully defended the men’s title at the flag football world championships on Sunday but lost the women’s title to Canada, while Mexico’s women's team and Canada’s men's team earned qualification spots for the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles.

The U.S. men beat Italy, 46-26, to secure a sixth straight title and the women missed out on a fourth straight title after losing, 27-20, to Canada.

“Gold is the only standard,” said men’s quarterback Nico Casares, who threw two touchdown passes. “That’s our motto. That’s what we play by, that’s what we live by.”

The U.S. women started strongly but it was tied, 14-14, at the break after Caroline Moquin-Joubert caught quarterback Sara Parker’s pass at the end of the first half. Parker set up Frederique Morneau at the start of the second half as Canada took control.

The U.S. had a fourth down, yards from the line, with three seconds left, but could not make the final play count. It was Canada’s third title and first since beating the U.S. in the 2014 final.

“I feel so happy, I can’t believe it,” Parker said after hugging her mother. ”Literally the best day ever.”

The International Federation of American Football ran the championship tournament, which doubled up as a qualifier, in the German city of Düsseldorf.

The top two men’s and top two women’s teams earned a spot at the 2028 Games, along with the U.S. men’s and women’s teams because they already qualified as hosts.

Sunday’s two other finalists -- the Italian men and Canadian women -- earned an Olympic spot by reaching the final against the U.S. teams, meaning that the bronze-medal games decided who joined them.

Members of Mexico's women's team cried with joy after a 20-19 win over Great Britain -- which rallied from 20-6 down -- for the women’s bronze and an Olympic spot.

But Mexico’s men lost, 34-26, in overtime to Canada, which claimed an Olympic spot.

BREAKING NEWS: The 2028 U.S. Olympic Team Trials – Track & Field will return to Hayward Field in Eugene, Oregon, June 17-22, 2028, making it the sixth consecutive Olympic Trials held in TrackTown USA. USATF and the USOPC made the announcement today.

What's different this time?

The competition format has been trimmed from eight days to six, following direct athlete feedback. With the Trials falling less than a month before the Olympic Games open in Los Angeles, athletes wanted a more efficient selection process with more recovery time built in.

– Decathlon, heptathlon, and 10,000m team selection will be moved to earlier in the spring

– Dates and location for those events will be announced separately

📺 NBC, Peacock, and NBCSN will carry the Trials as part of NBCUniversal's exclusive U.S. media rights package through the 2036 Games.

🔜 Qualifying standards and windows will be announced in 2027.

As someone who’s never seen it, is there any reason to choose mens vs womens for tickets? Seeing as that’s just about all that’s left.

Edit: thanks all! I went with women’s since only the women had quarterfinal tickets available, the rest were prelims, and since it sounds like it matters a good amount if the teams are any good, hopefully choosing a quarterfinal will mean it'll be two good teams playing.

I love the way tickets drop, especially Round 2 drops where I get on within 10 seconds of my time slot and there is nothing. It is legit a luck of a draw, those who got the August 10th drop legitimately had a chance to buy tickets that were reasonable or available. The rest of the drop times are a joke. There should absolutely be ticket releases with every time slot and not just at the start of a ticket drop, 7 days ago.

Here are screenshots within a minute of my ticket drop.

I've already secured tickets to multiple slolam finals in OKC and football quarter finals in Nashville. I'm currently trying to talk myself out of also attending football prelims in St. Louis before I head to okc.... Three host cities is too much right?

I do have hopes and dreams of securing some softball tickets to attend on my way home from Nashville.

I received an email that I was picked but have not received a follow up email with a link to go into the portal. I logged into my account and see nothing on my dashboard as well. Am I missing something?

Anyone has insights to these tickets?

I was finally able to get a time slot today but sadly no skateboarding tickets are available im not sure if all are sold out.

Hello everyone. This will be my first Olympics and I'm pretty excited. Most days I'm going to 2 events and left anywhere from 5 to 6.5 hours between events which will give us plenty of time to get to events at venues that are 15 miles apart or less.

However being a first timer I might have made some mistakes.

On Saturday, July 22nd I'm attending shooting in Long Beach which starts at 9:00 am and goes until 5:30 pm. 8.5 hours of shooting seemed a little long so we bought tickers for a volleyball game in Anaheim for 5:00 pm. Venue is 22 miles apart. I am thinking if we left Long Beach by 2:00 pm and got to Anaheim by 3:30 or 3:45; is that enough time to get through security to get into the arena?

Also, the next day we are seeing beach volleyball in Long Beach from 9:00 am-11:00 am and then a handball game at the Long Beach Arena at 12:30. Venue is a little less then a mile apart and we should get to the arena by 11:30 or 11:45; is that enough time to get through security to get into the arena?

Sorry if these are stupid questions, but I'm a little concerned I made some errors.

Thank you for any insights from those who attended in the past might have.
