Register now for the chance to see GBs top showjumpers compete at the 2024 Olympics in Paris
Thursday 01 December 2022
You can register now for the chance to see GBs top showjumpers and other athletes compete at the 2024 Olympics in Paris. Team GBR showjumpers have already qualified to send a team to this event.
There might still be over 600 days to go but from today fans of all athletes will have their very first opportunity to register for tickets for the Paris 2024 Olympic Games. To be in with a chance to see the action live and in person visit http://tickets.paris2024.org
Showjumping made its first appearance in any Olympics at the Olympic Games at Paris in 1900.
In 1952, the same year HM Queen Elizabeth II became Patron of the British Showjumping Association, Great Britain's team of Harry Llewellyn (riding Foxhunter), Duggie Stewart (riding Aherlow) and Wilf White (riding Nizefela) won team gold at the Helsinki Olympics. It was Britain's only gold of the Games in any sport.
It would be another 60 years before another GB team of showjumpers (comprising of Nick Skelton, Ben Maher, Scott Brash and Peter Charles) would win team gold at the London Olympic Games in 2012.
Since then, top showjumpers Nick Skelton (2016 Rio) and Ben Mayer (2021 Tokyo) have both gone onto win Individual Gold Medals, but Team GB showjumpers are hoping for success again at the 2024 Olympics in Paris.
Register now at http://tickets.paris2024.org for the chance to see if our showjumpers can do it again!
For the first time at an Olympic Games, there is a single global destination for all fans to buy tickets direct from Paris 2024, with almost half of the tickets priced at €50 or less for the general public.
By registering at tickets.paris2024.org Team GB fans can sign up for access to the initial draw for tickets. If successful, fans will then be allocated a 48-hour timeslot to purchase their tickets based on availability in real time. In doing so, supporters will be able to create ‘Make Your Games’ packs made up of three sessions of sport, according to their favourite sports and athletes, subject to availability.
By way of example, and to name just a few combinations, from €72 it will be possible to buy a pack with athletics, handball and rugby tickets; or gymnastics, judo and water polo; or two sailing sessions and a football match in Marseille; or golf, equestrian and mountain biking in the Yvelines.
Fans who have signed up to the Paris 2024 Club, and who are successful in the ballot process, will be given priority access to the ‘Make Your Games’ pack sales with advanced access during the first four days of sales (15-18 February 2022).
A further second ticket draw will open in March 2023, where fans can register their interest for individual tickets.
