Paris 2024 Olympic Games: last places, resale platform… The last questions on ticketing

Others also bought “blindly” without knowing the pool draw in team sports.

It is also possible — and much easier — to purchase tickets to see the events of the Paralympic Games which will take place in the capital from August 28 to September 8. Two months after the opening of the ticket office, the 2.8 million tickets put on the market are far from having found a buyer. The opportunity to discover sports and athletes less known than the stars of Olympus for a starting sum of 15 euros (between 25 and 100 for the finals).

Finally, the most players can participate in the various competitions which will be organized by the sponsors of the event in the weeks and months to come. Tens of thousands of tickets will be offered… but with no guarantee of success.
