Hi all, new user here! Does anyone know of a forum or site where us horsy folk have discussed swapping or buying olympic tickets? I am keen to get one for cross country day - preferably to buy although i am not sure that option is available/allowed? Or if not, then to swap as I have a spare for the 2nd day of eventing dressage. Any suggestions appreciated! thanks
 
you could try https://www.cosport.com/ but I think they may have suspended sales for now.
If you know anyone in Spain, I think there you can buy them over the counter at certain shops.

If you find anywhere (legal) let me know! I'd love some more tickets!
 
Thanks for the replies! Have a friend who lives in Barcelona so will try her and the other website and will update on progress!
 
I am pretty sure that you can only buy and sell tickets via the Olympic ticketing agency or affiliates. If you look on the olympic ticketing website all of the details are on there on what to do./how to buy tickets.
You can only sell the tickets back to the ticketing agency and then they re-imburse you only what you have paid. I do not think you can swap tickets and if you can I imagine it again, would have to go through the official channels to ensure that people are not making any money out of them. They are VERY strict on this - in the UK anyway...

I do not know about buying abroad all that I do know is that there are lots of unscrupulous persons out there trying to tout tickets and it is an awful lot of money to pay out only to find that your ticket may not be valid when you get there.
The Olympics, will I understand have a site where it is possible to buy unwanted tickets that people have 'sold' back to the olympic agency but i am not sure that this is available until a later date.
Best thing to do is to call the officials so you are not disapointed.
Good luck!
