It's official: Los Angeles will host Olympics in 2028

USA TODAY Sports

The Summer Olympics are returning to the United States.

With a vote on Wednesday, the International Olympic Committee awarded the 2028 Games to Los Angeles as part of a historic move to select two host cities simultaneously. Paris was chosen to host the 2024 Olympics, which Los Angeles had also been bidding for before reaching an agreement with the French capital and the IOC in August.

The unanimous vote to ratify that agreement during the IOC’s session in Lima, Peru, gives the United States its first Summer Games in 32 years.
