The second phase of Paris 2024 ticket sales began yesterday (Thursday) with successful applicants contacted earlier in the week to buy tickets within their 48-hour window.
It is expected that some 1.5 million tickets will be sold, with over four million people registered for the draw for this phase.
Olympics fans will be able to purchase tickets for the ‘highlights’ of the Games for the first time, including the 100m finals in athletics at the Stade de France, swimming finals at La Défense Arena and more.
A maximum of six tickets can be purchased per session, though in some cases there is a limit of four tickets.
Some 3.25 million tickets were snapped up during the first phase and a third sales phase is scheduled for later in the year.
