Since organizers of the 2028 Olympics announced a slate of additional venues in April, they’ve added more venues and changed others. Organizers also have announced the venues for the Paralympics.
What Olympics venues have changed?
For one, diving has been moved to Pasadena from Exposition Park after LA28 organizers raised concerns about the Exposition Park pool not being wide or deep enough.
Venues also have been announced for mountain biking and shooting:
- Mountain biking will be hosted at a course in the City of Industry, though it’s unclear where the exact location will be. Organizers say it’ll be a course “[built] into a hilltop in the San Gabriel Valley.”
- Shooting (shotgun) will take place at the Whittier Narrows Clay Shooting Center.
Here’s the full list:
The Paralympics
The Paralympic venues include:
- Para swimming will be hosted at the Long Beach Convention Center.
- Para archery will be played at the training grounds for the LA Galaxy in Carson.
- Para equestrian can be watched at Santa Anita Park in Arcadia.
- Wheelchair rugby will be played at the USC Galen Center.
LA28 has yet to announce locations for three events, including the start and end points for para cyling (road) and the marathon.
Here’s the full list:
How to watch the games
Mark your calendars: Registration to purchase tickets for the 2028 Olympics opens in January 2026 and opens in 2027 for the Paralympics. LA28 says single tickets will start at $28.
How to get around
LA28 organizers say these will be “transit-first Games” and attendees will be encouraged to take public transportation to get to the venues.
The key transit projects to make that easier still are underway. LAX’s people mover train, which will help millions who arrive through LAX, could welcome passengers as soon as this January. It’ll connect to the LAX/Metro Transit Center, which opened earlier this year.
