What Summer Olympics is
Los Angeles hosts the Games of the XXXIV Olympiad from 14 to 30 July 2028, its third Olympics after 1932 and 1984.
The opening ceremony is split across two stadiums for the first time, and the programme runs to more than 350 events across 36 sports.
When it falls, and why the date moves
The countdown at the top of this page is live, and the date beneath it is the next occurrence. This is a one-off date and does not repeat.
It is grouped here under Sport, alongside the other observances that share its calendar.
What is coming up next
Once this date passes, the countdown moves straight on to the next occurrence — you do not need a different page for next year. See the full list of upcoming events, or use the countdown timer for a date of your own.
