LA Tickets 2028LA28 Hospitality Packages: What On Location Sells and How to Judge It
Hospitality is the one LA28 ticket door that never closed. While the draw, the drops and the coming 2027 waves ration ordinary tickets, the official hospitality program has sold packages continuously since early 2026. That makes it the right answer for some buyers and an expensive mistake for others. This page separates the two.
What you are actually buying
An On Location package is a bundle. The core is a real ticket to a named session, including sessions that showed as sold out in the public drops. Around the ticket sits the hospitality layer: a lounge or in venue space, food and drink service, and staff, with the richness of the layer set by the tier you buy. You are paying for certainty and comfort, priced as a multiple of the ticket's face value.
On Location's role is structural, not a marketing claim. It holds the official hospitality appointment for these Games under the International Olympic Committee's global hospitality program, and LA28 recognizes no other hospitality seller. That matters for safety as much as for status: the scam guide on this site treats every other hospitality storefront as unverified.
How to judge a package price
Do the subtraction. Find the face value of the ticket inside the package using the prices and fees guide: a finals ticket might carry a face value of a few hundred dollars, a ceremony ticket more. Everything above that number is the price of the lounge, the catering and the certainty. Sometimes that premium is worth it, for a once in a lifetime session, a client you need to impress, or a group that values the room as much as the sport. Sometimes the premium buys a sandwich at a markup that would embarrass an airport. The math is the same either way; run it before you buy, per person, and compare it with the cost of the other doors.
The honest alternatives
The 2027 general sale sells primary tickets at face value, first come, first served, including sessions hospitality buyers assume are gone. The verified resale program opens in 2027 for market priced tickets inside LA28's safety net. And if your trip is the real project, the money a hospitality premium costs often buys a materially better hotel position for the whole Games instead of a better room for one afternoon. Hospitality is a legitimate product from the one legitimate provider. It is simply the most expensive way through the door, and it should be bought with open eyes.
Common questions
Is On Location the official LA28 hospitality provider?
Yes. On Location holds the official hospitality role for LA28 under the IOC's global hospitality program. Other companies selling LA28 hospitality are not the official provider, whatever their marketing implies.
What does an LA28 hospitality package include?
A guaranteed event ticket bundled with hospitality around it: lounge or in venue hospitality space, food and drink, and service staff, with the exact contents set by the package tier. The ticket is the anchor; everything else is the premium layer.
How much do LA28 hospitality packages cost?
Prices vary by sport, session and tier, run well above face value, and are published on On Location's own sales channels rather than as a single public price list. Judge any package against the face value of its ticket, which the prices and fees guide on this site lays out.
Should I buy hospitality or wait for the 2027 general sale?
If you want a specific famous session with certainty and the budget is secondary, hospitality is the door that is open today. If price matters, the 2027 first come sale and verified resale offer the same seats at face value or market price, with less certainty.
