Lawmakers appropriated $15M to host Olympic events in Oklahoma

         

Oklahoma City is set to host the canoe slalom and softball competitions for the 2028 Olympics at existing venues, while the bulk of the competition will be held in Los Angeles. Oklahoma's events will run from July 14-30, 2028.

... "Team OKC is currently working with a consultant to determine the full expense expectation for Games delivery," Williams said. "We'll keep an open conversation with the Department of Commerce and state leaders on future funding needs as we gain a clear picture of the overall needs."
