Olympics attendees who have tickets for Intuit Dome or the Columbus, Ohio football matches will receive a small refund after LA28 says it accidentally charged too much tax.
Some fans with tickets to the 2028 Olympics were a tad suspicious this week when an email offering them a refund landed in their inboxes.
The email offered cash back for an accidentally included tax that"was partially charged in error" on their tickets to the Olympic Games. The subject line should read “Official LA28 Ticket Tax Refund”. The L.A. Olympics organizing committee says it's the real deal, though.
According to LA28, refunds are being sent to people who bought tickets to Olympic events at the Intuit Dome and to football matches in Columbus, Ohio. They were erroneously charged local taxes that didn't apply. For most purchases at Intuit Dome, the refund is under $11, according to LA28 spokeswoman Jacie Prieto Lopez. In Columbus, the refund is under $40.
