Tokyo Olympics tickets are sold out. Here's how to buy them next spring
The 2020 Summer Olympics are a year away, but you might still be able to go.
Only one more year until the Summer Games.
The 2020 Olympic Games in Tokyo are a year away, but if you're going to try to watch the games in person, you've got to start planning now. The Summer Games run from July 24 to Aug. 9, 2020, and feature new events such as karate, surfing and sport climbing, along with favorites like swimming, basketball and track and field.
Tickets have been selling like hotcakes, as always, but you'll have a few more chances to get in on the action. You could splurge on a package (we're talking upward of $7,000 per person -- more below), or mark your calendar for spring 2020 for another shot at a ticket. We'll keep you updated when they're available.
Meanwhile, tuck away these details about how you can reserve a spot when ticket sales reopen.
