Devon Park seats 12,500 for softball, LA28 Olympics may use Oklahoma City as a co-host for softball and canoe slalom.
2017 GO Bonds - $27.5 million was apart of the 4,000 seat upper deck and stadium expansion/improvements to Devon Park in 2020.
Now poised to co-host LA28 World Softball Olympic Games and canoe slalom in 1928.
Temporary venues and additional construction would be needed to host softball and canoe slalom, something LA28 has said it will avoid.
That's where Oklahoma City comes in with two settings for part of this Hollywood story.
“Oklahoma City has hosted many international competitions at our unique, world-class whitewater and softball venues,” Oklahoma City Mayor David Holt said. “We are confident we will be an outstanding partner to LA28 in creating a dynamic environment for Olympians and fans. We are excited about the opportunity to support one of America’s great global cities, Los Angeles, and work closely with the LA28 organizing committee to ensure that the 2028 Olympic Games are a success.”
