Registration for the official LA28 Olympic ticket draw is now open, so if you’re hoping to watch any equestrian sport in person, now is the time to act.
The LA28 Olympics will be the first time the Games is returning to the US in 32 years and preparations are well underway.
How to get tickets to the LA28 Olympics
1. Register
Registration allows you to enter the ticket draw. No purchase or payment is required at this stage, but you must be 18 to register.
Registration will be open until 18 March 2026 – as the draw for the slots in the next stage is random, there is no advantage of registering early other than being able to tick it off your to-do list.

2. Ticket draw
Once registration has closed, you will be randomly allocated a time slot in which you will be able to buy your Olympic tickets.
The earlier your allocated slot, the better your chance at securing the tickets you want – being given a time slot does not guarantee that there will be tickets available once your time slot is open.
You will be notified of your allocated time slot between March 31 and April 7 2026.
3. Purchase
You will only be able to select and purchase tickets during your allocated time slot. Tickets are limited to 12 per registration.
The first set of LA28 Olympic tickets will be up for purchase from 9 April 2026. Tickets for the Paralympics will become available in 2027.
“With a variety of options for everyone to experience the Games in person, single tickets will start at $28,” said an LA28 spokesperson about Olympic events in general.
