History
CoSport and parent company, Jet Set Sports, offer VIP Hospitality packages to the Olympic Games. Jet Set Sports has worked with many corporate clients developing personalized hospitality programs since it introduced its services for the 1984 Olympic Winter Games in Sarajevo. After many years of success, CoSport was created with the vision of offering quality hospitality services to a public audience interested in attending the Olympic Games.
CoSport emerged in 2000 working with the Sydney Organizing Committee for the Olympic Games to create high-end hospitality packages for the Olympic Games. These packages included deluxe accommodations, private transportation, and premium event tickets.
Following the Sydney Games, CoSport partnered with the Salt Lake Organizing Committee (SLOC) to offer a broader range of hospitality packages to the U. S. consumer market. These packages were offered through the SLOC website and for the first time, packages were sold to the general public. Packages included accommodations at a variety of hotels plus event tickets and transportation.
After the huge success of the Salt Lake City Games, CoSport established itself as the source for premium Olympic Hospitality Packages for the consumer market. For Athens, an even larger variety of packages were created throughout five different properties including the mighty Queen Mary 2. CoSport also began selling individual tickets in Athens from its own website and expanded its market to include Bulgaria, Canada, Chile, Macedonia,Peru, Puerto Rico, Slovakia, Slovenia, and the United States.


Torino proved to be CoSport’s most successful games yet! As the Official Sponsor of the XX Olympic Winter Games and Paralympic Games, CoSport was able to provide our clients with unparalleled access to prime winter event tickets, a variety of accommodation choices from the heart of the historic city center to the Italian countryside, dedicated accredited transportation and the finest wines and cuisine that the Piedmont region had to offer.
Beijing was filled with passion and spirit as the host city welcomed guest to experience the culture of the far east. CoSport, the Official Hospitality Provider for the Beijing 2008 Olympic Games, provided Hospitality Packages at 8 hotel proprieties, representing 6,480 bednights. CoSport also provided access to an unprecedented number of sporting event tickets, with approximately 186,000 sold to residents from countries where CoSport acted as the Official General Sales Agents for the Beijing Games, including Australia, Austria, Bulgaria, Canada, Slovakia, and the United States.
The Vancouver Games generated unprecedented excitement and energy both on and off the field of play with a sea of red and white on the streets of the host city. Providing wonderful accommodations in both Vancouver and the majestic mountain resort of Whistler, CoSport hosted thousands of guests as the Official Hospitality Provider for the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympic Games. With 97 different hospitality packages to select from, our guests experienced fine dining and prime seating to the best sporting events.
