skandar Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 I’ll be at all men’s freestyle sessions. Anyone else going? I’m also curious to see if anyone’s found a more detailed seating chart than this? A bit annoying to not know where exactly my seats are at this point. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
D3 for LU Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 ... so, my guess is that the more expensive seating is the dark blue sections, and the less expensive seats are the subsequent sections after that. Could you give a guess, upon how much you paid out of your pocket, what section you may be in? (if you paid the least amount, that choice is rather evident... but what the hey, being there is half the battle, and all that counts, yes? ) D3 Never argue with an idiot. They will only bring you down to their level and beat you with experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fishbane Posted June 27 Share Posted June 27 That is the most detailed seating chart that I have found as well. It's what's in the Paris app. My ticket specifies an entrance (number), stand (letter), block (letter and number - letter is the same as stand, but number different than the entrance number), Row (number), and seat (number). I don't know where it is on that chart. My stand is C so maybe somewhere in the light blue? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Here’s one of my tickets. They’re Category A and could be insanely good seats or mediocre & off to one side. I have no idea at this point.

All mine match up for the correct category I purchased. That could be a coincidence I suppose. If yours don’t match, I bet stand refers to which side of the mat each section of stands is.

MinnesotaMustang Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 I will be there for all men’s freestyle. We are staying close to Eiffel Tower and wrestling. Looking forward to a great week in the city. Can not wait! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadMardigain Posted July 1 Share Posted July 1 Not going, but curious. How were you guys able to acquire tickets to all or most of the wrestling events? I was assuming the size of the venue isn’t massive and with tickets open to the world figured each session would fill up pretty quick. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ticketing usually starts about 18 months before the start of the games with a ticket lottery. You are limited on the number of tickets you can buy so smaller sports like wrestling don't get too overwhelmed with requests and if there are more tickets than requests, everyone gets them. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Won the right to purchase in the first round where I got all but 3-4 sessions. Then periodically checked when they did drops until I got the others. Pretty easy actually. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MinnesotaMustang Posted July 3 Share Posted July 3 We got our tickets from lottery and first drop, but there are still tons available on resale page if anyone is on the fence. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PJ141 Posted July 3 Share Posted July 3 I tried like heck and got nothing. I know I entered lottery but got late reply and when I checked most good seat we’re gone. I had a tough go figuring it out. Where are the resale tickets? For those going how did you find flights, lodging, etc.? Know someone going but to other events and said he paid a fortune for everything. Thanks.

I didn't get the greatest seats but I'm in. If you google Paris Olympic Tickets, it will take you there. The resale site is the same site as where you applied for tickets. I drug my feet on booking because tickets were so high, booked about 6 weeks ago and got round trip from Fargo to Paris for $900 and found a niche hotel about 15 min walk for $275/night which is relatively normal for Paris. I don't know if I got lucky or just searched enough but my experience with international travel is to keep consistently looking and a deal usually pops up.

PJ141 Posted July 5 Share Posted July 5 The ticketing is strange. Checked again and they’ll show available at a price and than click through and that section/price is not available. Anyhow, there are some available. And why are you only buying a section? Why can’t they be specific with the row/seat? Most other events sell this way. Lodging is reasonable if you shop around. Lastly, the sessions seems short like 2hrs. How many sessions are there over the course of a day? Seems more than ncaas or Worlds. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
