There are 59 types of Olympic tickets (excluding the opening and closing ceremonies) and 25 types of Paralympic tickets.

The Games' core graphics employ the "layered colors" motif, represented by the twelve-layered kimono (jūnichidan), to evoke a distinctly Japanese aesthetic. This color scheme has traditionally been used for celebratory attire and special occasions.
The sport pictograms accurately represent each event while also serving as communication tools. They build upon the concept of sport pictograms first introduced at the 1964 Tokyo Olympics, further developing it.

The Organizing Committee will publicly display all spectator ticket designs at the Nihonbashi Mitsui Tower 1st Floor Atrium in Chuo Ward, Tokyo, from January 15 to 29.
