Match Preview
The Los Angeles 2028 Olympic Games take place from 14 to 30 July 2028, returning the Olympic movement to one of sport’s most beloved host cities for the third time after the iconic editions of 1932 and 1984. Spread across more than 30 world-class venues from the Rose Bowl to SoFi Stadium, with the LA Memorial Coliseum hosting the opening ceremony, LA28 will deliver 32 sports across 16 days of competition that define the pinnacle of elite athletic achievement across every discipline from athletics and swimming to team sports, gymnastics and combat sports. Team GB will be competing at an Olympics on American soil for the first time since 1996, and the 8-hour time difference from BST means that many of the day’s headline events — athletics finals, swimming sessions and team sport fixtures — will play out across the London morning and afternoon, creating a full summer fortnight of daytime Olympic viewing that is far more accessible than Asian or Australasian Games editions. The Olympics is also the world’s greatest sporting trip for those willing to make the journey to Los Angeles — 11 hours by air and a city that offers extraordinary facilities, cultural experiences and event programming alongside the sport. London viewing venues and dedicated Olympic screening events will be announced closer to the Games. For those considering the trip to LA, tickets are available through the official LA28 platform and demand across all events has already been extraordinary since the first sales phase.
