Less than a week ago, it was reported that USA Swimming has a goal of an average of 5 million TV viewers each night of Trials, almost twice the average from 2020(1) Trials. This will be the first time that the event is staged in a football field as Lucas Oil is home to the Indianapolis Colts.
Despite moving Trials to a larger stadium, ticket sales still continue to lag. Single-session tickets became available in early-March and are as low as $15 for a prelims session.
