After a week-long pre-sale for residents in Southern California and Oklahoma City, the LA28 Organizing Committee has officially launched the first phase of global ticket sales for the 2028 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles. This 'Drop 1' of general ticket sales will run through April 19 and offer what are being called the 'lowest priced Olympic tickets in modern history'.
