Get ready for the Los Angeles Olympics in 2028, featuring flag football and unforgettable memories!

As the world bids adieu to the spectacular 2024 Paris Olympics, all eyes are now on 2028, which will see Los Angeles stepping out of the shadows of the Eiffel Tower and into the limelight! It's not just another Olympic year; it's a chance for L.A. to shine brighter than the Hollywood Walk of Fame. We're talking about a city so legendary that even the Olympic flame is probably planning to hit up a few film premieres!

This time around, expect a lineup of exciting new sports like flag football, that will leave fans cheering harder than a crowd at a Lakers game! Los Angeles is known for its flair and creativity, and the addition of these fresh sports is a perfect representation of its diverse culture. But hold your horses! The Parisians may have put a smorgasbord of dreamlike aesthetics on display, yet L.A. won't let that intimidate them. They are ready to turn up the heat with their own dazzling ceremonies and events.

Mayor Karen Bass is busy preparing to carry the Olympic torch, not just in a literal sense but symbolically too! She has the pressure of bringing her city to the forefront while learning from Paris's grand display. Fingers crossed she doesn’t accidentally book a celebrity who insists on bringing their whole entourage to the Opening Ceremony! Imagine if our favorite stars had to share the stage with athletes—talk about a red carpet rolled out for sports!

As the countdown to the L.A. Games begins, fans can look forward to a festival of fun, athletic excellence, and maybe even a few surprise musical performances from those iconic artists we’ve all grown to love. What better way to celebrate unity and sportsmanship than to encourage a few vivacious dance breaks in between competitions? And let’s face it, who wouldn't want to see a semi-final match interrupted by a surprise Beyoncé performance?

Lastly, did you know that the 2028 Olympics will mark the third time Los Angeles has hosted the Summer Games? The city first welcomed the Olympics in 1932 and again in 1984, making it a seasoned pro in the Olympic arena! Also, the Los Angeles 2028 Olympics will take place during the 100th anniversary of the 1932 Games, a historic milestone for a city that loves to give itself a glorious birthday bash!
