The Paris Olympics has achieved a remarkable milestone selling a record-breaking 8.6 million tickets, surpassing the previous record held by the 1996 Atlanta Games.
The head of the Paris 2024 organizing committee Tony Estanguet, confirmed that the ticket sales have exceeded expectations, with a forecast of total sales reaching 10 million for the Olympics and 3.4 million for the Paralympics.
He added, “The good news is that in this final stretch we are making available a number of tickets for lots of sports.”
“There are lots of really good options at different prices both for the Olympics, Paralympics, and opening and closing ceremonies.”
“We are proud to have already beaten the record, but we can still do even better,” he concluded.
The Paris 2024 Tickets app has also made it easier for users to access, transfer, and resell tickets securely.
The Olympic Games are scheduled to hold July 26-August 11, 2024
