Los Angeles and Paris step up to host the 2028 Olympic Games

2017-07-31 2

Paris and Los Angeles are a force to be reckoned with! The International Olympic Committee reached a unanimous decision to name both cities as hosts for the upcoming Olympic Games. The unprecedented double award win means Paris will host the Olympic Games in 2024 and Los Angeles will take the honor in 2028. The Olympics have not been hosted by the U.S.A. since 1996 in Atlanta. This will be the third time that Paris and LA will have hosted the Olympic Games. "I'm as anxious as anyone to have the party as soon as possible. But what's really important is the life of your city, the opportunity for your residents. If I can do something for my city, I have to look at, What's the better deal?" Los Angeles Mayor Eric Garcetti
