The process of bidding for the host city was originally scheduled to begin in 2019, with the winning bid due to be announced in 2021. However, following the withdrawal of a number of cities from the bidding process for both the 2022 Winter Olympics and the 2024 Summer Olympics, the International Olympic Committee ( IOC ) resolved in July 2017 to jointly award both the 2024 and 2028 Games. Thus on July 31, 2017, an agreement was reached wherein Los Angeles would bid for the 2028 Games with $ 1.8 billion of additional funding from the IOC, which then cleared the way for Paris to be confirmed as host of the 2024 Games. Both cities were formally announced as winners of their respective Games at the 131st IOC Session in Lima, Peru, on September 13, 2017. These Games will be the fifth Summer Olympics to be hosted in the United States, following St. Louis 1904, Los Angeles 1932, Los Angeles 1984, and Atlanta 1996. They will be the ninth overall Olympic Games to be held in the United States ( including summer and winter Games ). This will be the third time that Los Angeles will have hosted the Summer Olympics, making it the third city after London ( 1908, 1948, and 2012 ) and Paris ( 1900, 1924, and 2024 ) to host the Olympic Games three times.

The candidature process was announced at the same time. Budapest, Hamburg, and Rome eventually withdrew their bids, leaving only Los Angeles and Paris. A similar situation had already occurred during the bidding for the 2022 Winter Olympics when Krakow, Lviv, Oslo and Stockholm withdrew, resulting in a two - way race between Beijing, China and Almaty, Kazakhstan, where Beijing was ultimately declared the winner. On April 3, 2017 at the IOC convention in Denmark, Olympic officials met with bid committees from both Los Angeles and Paris to discuss the possibility of naming two winners in the competition to host the 2024 Summer Games. After these withdrawals, the IOC Executive Board met in Lausanne, Switzerland to discuss the 2024 and 2028 bid processes on June 9, 2017. The IOC formally proposed electing the 2024 and 2028 Olympic host cities at the same time in 2017, a proposal that was approved by an Extraordinary IOC Session on July 11, 2017 in Lausanne. The IOC set up a process where the Los Angeles and Paris 2024 bid committees, and the IOC held meetings in July 2017 to decide which city would host in 2024 and who would host in 2028. Following the decision to award the 2024 and 2028 Games simultaneously, Paris was understood to be the preferred host for the 2024 Games. On July 31, 2017, the IOC announced Los Angeles as the sole candidate for the 2028 Games, allowing Paris to be confirmed as the host city for the 2024 Games. On August 11, 2017, the Los Angeles City Council voted unanimously to approve the bid. On September 11, 2017, Los Angeles received formal approval to host the 2028 Games from the IOC 's evaluation commission. On September 13, 2017, Los Angeles was formally awarded the 2028 Games following a unanimous vote by the IOC. On October 16, 2017, Los Angeles 2028 received official support from the state of California. Host city election Los Angeles was elected as the host city at the 131st IOC Session in Lima, Peru on September 13, 2017. The three American IOC members, Anita DeFrantz, Angela Ruggiero and Larry Probst were not eligible to vote in this host city election under the rules of the Olympic Charter. This will be the third time Los Angeles will have been selected as an Olympics host city without facing a competitive bidding process, following similar outcomes in 1932 and 1984 ( Los Angeles is the only city to hold this distinction ). Los Angeles previously submitted bids for the 1924, 1928, 1948, 1952, 1956, 1976 and 1980 Summer Olympics, but lost to Paris, Amsterdam, London, Helsinki, Melbourne, Montreal and Moscow respectively. Los Angeles also bid to be the US candidate for the 2016 Summer Olympics, but the USOC chose Chicago as the US candidate for those games. Development and preparations Venue construction and renovations While most Olympic host cities have seven years to prepare for the games, Los Angeles will see an additional four years, giving the city eleven years for preparations. The Los Angeles bid was dependent on a majority of existing venues. Other venues that are already under construction were planned regardless of the games. Banc of California Stadium, which opened in 2018 as the home of Major League Soccer 's Los Angeles FC, will host football ( soccer ) and several events in athletics. Los Angeles Stadium at Hollywood Park, home of the NFL 's Los Angeles Rams and Los Angeles Chargers upon its completion in 2020, will host the main opening ceremony, football and archery. The Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum is currently undergoing a major program of renovation and restoration. A new press box and suites, loge boxes, and club seats are being installed. This work is expected to be completed in 2019. Future renovations include the installation of an athletics track. Infrastructure Main article : Twenty - eight by ' 28 The Twenty - eight by ' 28 initiative is an effort set forth by Mayor Eric Garcetti that the City of Los Angeles complete 28 transit infrastructure projects before the start of ceremonies. Most of these projects were already in the planning stages but will receive accelerated priority, while several new projects were programmed with the initiative. In 2019, the Crenshaw / LAX Line is expected to open and will be fully completed by 2021. It will link the Crenshaw District, Inglewood and Westchester once completed. The Crenshaw / LAX line will also connect to a people mover being constructed to link Los Angeles International Airport with the Aviation / 96th Street station. The construction of the people mover will be expedited in anticipation of the 2028 Olympics, with a completion date of 2023 being set. The LAX people mover started construction in early 2018 and the Crenshaw Line is currently 75 % completed ( as of March 2018 ). While various infrastructure improvements were planned regardless of the outcome of the Los Angeles Olympic bid, the extension of the Metro Purple Line will be expedited to serve the 2028 Olympics, with a targeted completion date of 2024. The first phase will extend the Purple Line from the Wilshire / Western station to the new Wilshire / La Cienega Blvd. station. This phase will be completed by 2023. The second phase will extend the Purple Line to Century City by 2025, while the third and final phase will extend the line to the West Los Angeles VA Medical Center in Westwood with a completion date set for 2026. The third phase will also include a station adjoining the UCLA campus, connecting the Olympic village and Pauley Pavilion with venues in downtown Los Angeles. Currently phase one and two are under construction and phase three is pending federal appropriation funding. The Regional Connector in downtown Los Angeles will be complete in 2021. The project will connect the Metro Expo Line, which already links venues in Downtown Santa Monica to venues at Exposition Park and in downtown Los Angeles, to the Metro Gold Line. This will allow for direct rail service between Santa Monica and East Los Angeles. The Regional Connector will also link the Metro Blue Line with the Metro Gold Line, connecting the Long Beach area and San Gabriel Valley via downtown. These infrastructure improvements, among others, are being funded by `` Measure R '', a temporary half - cent sales tax increase, and `` Measure M '', a continuation of Measure R 's tax increase plus an additional permanent half - cent sales tax increase, both tax measures applicable to Los Angeles County. Measure R was approved by voters in November 2008 and Measure M was approved by voters in November 2016.

The committee proposed that a segment of the opening ceremony be held at the Coliseum, from which the final stage of the torch relay would be launched. The torch would then travel to Inglewood, where the opening ceremony proper ( including the parade of nations and other traditional protocol ) would be held. Other entertainment, such as a simulcast of the main portion of the ceremony, would be provided to spectators at the Coliseum. The historic Olympic cauldron at the Coliseum would be symbolically re-ignited upon the lighting of the Olympic cauldron in Inglewood. In turn, the closing ceremony would be held in reverse, with an opening segment in Inglewood, and protocol ( including the formal extinguishing of the cauldron ) occurring at the Coliseum. Broadcasting In the United States, the 2028 Games will be broadcast by NBCUniversal properties, as part of long - term agreements with the IOC through 2032. The NBC Universal Studio Lot is planned to be the site of the International Broadcast Centre for the Games.
