There will be a maximum of 30 Olympic tickets purchased per ticketing account, taking into account previous orders.

What about other events?

Tickets for the Paris 2024 Paralympic Games (August 28th to September 8th) are available now on the official website, also sold on a first-come, first-serve basis.

Authorities have promised an additional 200,000 free tickets for the opening ceremony - standing room only - although the date for these to be made available is yet to be confirmed. 

Otherwise, Olympics officials have promised 'surprise sales' each month leading up to the Games. They will be announced just a few days in advance, with this marking the second 'surprise sale'. Each will offer tickets subject to availability and on a first-come, first-served basis.

You can join the 'Club Paris 2024' mailing list on the Olympics site to sign up for email reminders.
