where are future olympics

Future Olympics are scheduled in several cities that have already been officially selected by the International Olympic Committee.

Quick Scoop: Where are the future Olympics?

Here are the confirmed upcoming Olympic host locations as of early 2026:

  • 2026 Winter Olympics: Milan–Cortina d'Ampezzo, Italy.
  • 2028 Summer Olympics: Los Angeles, California, United States.
  • 2030 Winter Olympics: French Alps (centered around Nice, France).
  • 2032 Summer Olympics: Brisbane, Australia, with events across Queensland (Brisbane, Gold Coast, Sunshine Coast) and possibly some in Melbourne and Sydney.
  • 2034 Winter Olympics: Salt Lake City, Utah, United States.

Mini context & “latest news” angle

  • These host cities reflect the IOC’s newer strategy of awarding multiple Games at once to long‑term “preferred” partners (for example, Brisbane was selected for 2032 via a special targeted dialogue process in 2021).
  • For 2036 and beyond, no official Summer host has been chosen yet, but several places such as Doha (Qatar), Nusantara (Indonesia), Ahmedabad (India), Istanbul (Turkey), and Santiago (Chile) have been publicly mentioned as interested or potential bidders; however, none are confirmed hosts at this point.

Forum-style note

Fans on sports forums are already debating whether Los Angeles 2028 or Brisbane 2032 will feel more “transformative,” with some excited about LA’s existing stadiums and others curious how Brisbane’s rapidly growing infrastructure will handle a full Summer Games.

TL;DR:
Next up after 2026 are Los Angeles (Summer 2028), the French Alps (Winter 2030), Brisbane (Summer 2032), and Salt Lake City (Winter 2034); anything beyond that is still up in the air.
