Latest Update: Drop 1 Ticket Sales Have Concluded—Registration For Drop 2 Is Now Open

Registration is now open for Drop 2. If you registered for the LA and OK Locals Presale or Drop 1, you are automatically registered for Drop 2 and there is nothing more you need to do at this time.

If you haven’t registered for a previous drop yet, you’ll want to register for Drop 2 by July 22nd to have a chance to purchase tickets for Olympic Golf at Riviera.

After registration for Drop 2 closes, applicants will be notified if they’ve been randomly selected for a time slot to purchase tickets. The ticket limit is 12 tickets per person across all drops, so if you purchased some tickets in the locals presale or Drop 1, but haven’t hit your 12 ticket limit, you can purchase more tickets in Drop 2 if selected, up to your 12 ticket limit.

LA28 has confirmed inventory has been refreshed for Drop 2, so while the men’s golf events sold out quickly during the locals presale, there should be additional tickets available during Drop 2, but expect them to sell out quickly again. It is unknown if pricing will remain the same for Drop 2, but pricing from the locals presale is listed below.

Key Dates and What Happens Next:

Now – July 22 – Registration period for Drop 2

TBD August – Notifications of purchasing time slots sent out to those successful in the draw

TBD August – Drop 2 tickets on sale

The Winter Olympics are officially underway in Milan Cortina. As John Williams’ “Olympic Fanfare and Theme” rings out across homes around the world, the PGA TOUR season is in motion on the other side of the globe with the West Coast Swing unfolding across California’s most storied venues.

From Justin Rose’s record-setting performance at Torrey Pines through the desert in Arizona and on to Pebble Beach, the PGA TOUR’s early-season arc concludes at Riviera Country Club for the Genesis Invitational. It’s a fitting convergence that the 2026 Winter Olympics conclude on February 22 — the same day as the final round at Riviera, the iconic George C. Thomas masterpiece that will also serve as the stage for Olympic golf when the Summer Games come to Los Angeles in 2028.

Though LA28 is still two years away, the path to being there has already begun. The registration window for 2028 Olympic tickets is now open, and for fans hoping to experience the thrill of Olympic golf in person, this marks the first opportunity to be randomly selected for the chance to purchase tickets.

Here’s what you need to know and how to register for the initial ticket draw for Olympic golf at the LA28 Games.

How Do You Register for Olympic Golf Tickets at LA28?

The first step is to register for Drop 1 of the ticket draw. Registration is now open for Drop 1 and the LA Locals Presale. The deadline to register for Drop 1 is March 18th. After registration closes, you will be notified via email with a time window you will be able to purchase tickets if you were selected in the draw. Drop 1 tickets go on sale between April 9– 19.

Who Is Eligible for the LA and Oklahoma City Olympic Golf Presale?

Local residents of Greater Los Angeles and Oklahoma City have an opportunity to purchase tickets before they go on sale to the general public. Oklahoma City is included due to its role as a co-host city for select LA28 events, extending local presale access beyond Southern California.

To qualify, fans must enter a postal code during registration from an eligible county in Los Angeles (Los Angeles, Orange, Riverside, San Bernardino, or Ventura) or Oklahoma (Oklahoma, Canadian, or Cleveland). Local residents are not guaranteed early tickets, and those not selected for the locals presale are automatically entered into the general public draw for Drop 1. 

Ticket prices for locals start at just $28. The locals presale runs from April 2-6th.

How Many Tickets Can You Buy for Olympic Golf at LA28?

Fans can purchase up to 12 tickets in total. Purchases can be made over multiple drops if selected multiple times, up until the 12 ticket limit has been reached.

What Golf Events Will Be Held at the LA28 Olympics?

There are three golf events during the LA28 Olympics: Men’s Individual Stroke Play, Women’s Individual Stroke Play and a Mixed Team event. Tickets for these events will be on sale if selected for either the Locals Presale or Drop 1.

Where Will Olympic Golf Be Played During the LA28 Games?

Olympic golf at the LA28 Games will be played at Riviera Country Club, the historic George C. Thomas–designed course in Los Angeles.

For the first time in 80 years, no new permanent venues are being built for the Summer Olympics. Instead, Games organizers are leveraging existing world-class sites across Greater Los Angeles, organized into geographic “zones.” Riviera Country Club will serve as the sole venue within the Riviera Zone, hosting all Olympic golf competition in 2028.

What Are the Key Dates for Buying LA28 Olympic Golf Tickets?

Now – March 18 – Registration period

March 31–April 7 – Notifications of purchasing time slots sent out to those successful in the draw

April 2-6 – LA and Oklahoma City presale window

April 9– 19 – General public Drop 1 ticket sale window

Registering early gives you the best chance at securing tickets to Olympic golf or any of the other Games as registering for Drop 1 automatically enters you for subsequent drops, giving you more opportunities to be selected.
