2024 Paris. 2028 LA.
I thought they only announced 1 at a time.
Seems this was all pre arranged...

They we're the only two to bid for it, so they pretty much chose between themselves which city would host which edition.
I guess in a way it could've been the least corrupt bidding process in history - not much need for a lot of bungs when you have no competitors.

I bet the French security services are overjoyed at the prospect of such a large, high-profile event being hosted in Paris.

That's the luxury goods firms well and truly fucked
Ten or so years without large amounts of brown envelopes and random gifts of wrist watches

At least we won't have to stay up too late to watch it. LA was a right pain in the arse last time watching us win the hockey gold. Pissed on bubbly at 7am was fun though.

Its the French ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/800541/images/kwfoKwtHI0jglJZ4qZf6.gif) anyway a tip if you go to Paris book to go to the Iffle tower level 2 restaurant online link 6 months in advance good food excellent views and you bypass all the queues to go up also don't stay in Paris stay in Versailles cheaper easy access to Paris and you also have the palace also a good Novatel right near train station to Paris and here ends the travel log for the French tourist board ![](https://www.restaurants-toureiffel.com/upload/photos/6159/t9.jpg)

If you were The French Tourist Board I would be ashamed of your attempt at Eiffel!

seems that nobody really want it these days as the costs of hosting it probably exceeds the revenue it brings in. i would imagine that paris and la allready have the infastructure to accomadate the olympics. i love all olympic sport but the drugs issue has tarnished the sport. all those russian medals won over the last 30 years should be eradicated.
