Venues of the 2028 Summer Olympics and Paralympics

The 2028 Summer Olympics are scheduled to be held in Los Angeles, California, United States, from July 14–30, 2028. The Games will be hosted in and around Greater Los Angeles and Los Angeles County. The city's bid relied on a majority of existing venues and venues that had already been under construction or were planned regardless of the Games. The majority of venues are divided into clusters known as "sports parks", situated in Downtown Los Angeles, the San Fernando Valley, Carson (at California State University, Dominguez Hills), and Long Beach. No new permanent venues are being built specifically for the Games.

The Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum and the Rose Bowl will host athletics and football (soccer), respectively. Both will become the first stadiums to have ever hosted three different Olympiads. BMO Stadium, which opened in 2018 as the home of Major League Soccer's Los Angeles FC, will host flag football and lacrosse. The University of California, Los Angeles will house the Olympic Village, while USC will house the Olympic Media Village. Riviera Country Club will host golf. Oklahoma City, Oklahoma will host the events for softball and canoe slalom.

The 2017 venue plan proposed holding the opening and closing ceremonies at both SoFi Stadium and the historic Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, in an acknowledgement of the Coliseum's role in the 1932 and 1984 Olympics. SoFi Stadium, which opened in 2020 as the home of the NFL's Los Angeles Rams and Los Angeles Chargers, will host swimming, becoming the largest swimming venue in Olympic history. SoFi Stadium is expected to serve as the ceremonies venue, although the Los Angeles Organizing Committee has also proposed the incorporation of the Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum into the ceremonies' protocol in a dual-venue format. The plan called the final leg of the torch relay to be ceremonially launched from the Coliseum, with a simulcast of the opening ceremony proper at SoFi Stadium shown to those in attendance at the Coliseum, and the ceremonial re-lighting of the historic Olympic cauldron once the new cauldron is lit in Inglewood. The closing ceremony would be held in reverse, with opening segments at SoFi Stadium, and the official protocol held at the Coliseum. The final plan is pending per IOC approval.
