Lima, Peru • Los Angeles has received its formal go-ahead to host the 2028 Olympics, getting a thumbs-up from the International Olympic Committee’s evaluation commission.
On Wednesday, the full IOC will award the 2024 Games to Paris and the 2028 Games to Los Angeles.
Los Angeles had originally bid for 2024, but because of the new date, it had to make changes to its host contract.
The evaluation commission signed off on those Monday, saying that although details need to be finalized, it is confident LA can host in 2028.
