World Athletics president Lord Coe says the Los Angeles 2028 Games will “start with a bang,” with the women’s 100m final on day one and the men’s on day two. Organizers set the opening ceremony for 14 July and the closing for 30 July, with athletics spanning the entire event and swimming moving to the second week in a “historic swap.” They describe it as the biggest Olympics, featuring 36 sports and 51 disciplines across 49 venues in 18 zones, and a “Super Saturday” on 29 July with 26 finals.
