Discovering The Most Exclusive Events In Sports
There are sporting events, and then there are exclusive sporting events, and the latter is the type of event that everyone should experience at least once in their lifetime. They take place all around the world, and they cover all sports, rather than being focused on one, with many of them happening on an annual basis.
The Football World Cup
At the time of writing, arguably the most exclusive sporting event in the world is taking place in Qatar, the FIFA World Cup 2022. There are multiple prestigious tournaments that happen in the football world, but none compare to the World Cup. Where online betting on sports is concerned, nothing comes close to this football tournament in particular, as it’s one that pulls together a global audience and nations, fans and players from all four corners of the earth. The fact that it happens every four years makes it even more exclusive.
The Olympic Games
The Olympic Games isn’t just one of the most exclusive events in sports; it’s one of the oldest and most traditional too. The Olympics have managed to transcend generations, which is why so many people tune in to watch the action unfold. Akin to the football World Cup, this is an event that takes place every four years. And arguably, its most significant selling point is that there are so many events that take place within the event as a whole. So there’s everything, from sprinting and shotput to long jump and hurdles.
The Super Bowl
The Super Bowl is a sporting event that most people will have expected to be on this list. In terms of American sports and the NFL, this is the showpiece event, and they don’t come much bigger. What organisers of the Super Bowl events have become adept at is taking the sporting action and turning it into a huge entertainment event. The half-time show and the adverts that happen during the Super Bowl have almost become as integral as the NFL game taking place. And the Super Bowl’s exclusivity of sorts as a sporting event has been enhanced by the considerable number of rich and famous people who attend each year.
The Grand National
We finish our list with the Grand National, which happens to be one of the most exclusive horse races on the planet. As we mentioned earlier, some of these exclusive events are steeped in history and tradition, and the Grand National is undoubtedly one of these, having been run for the first time in 1839. The race takes place annually at Aintree Racecourse in the United Kingdom and comprises thirty fences, which makes it one of the toughest races around. Thousands flock to Aintree to watch the action unfold live, but for those not in attendance, the race is broadcast live around the world, with an estimated audience of over six hundred million tuning in to watch.

As you know, blogging changed my life. I left Ireland broke, with no plan, with just a one-way ticket to Thailand and no money. Since then, I started a blog, then a digital media company, I’ve made more than $1,500,000 USD, bought 4 properties and visited (almost) every country in the world. And I did it all from my laptop as I travel the world and live my dream.
