LA has already spent $27 million on its 'no-cost' 2028 Olympics
Original: LA was supposed to have a no-cost Olympics in 2028. The city has already spent $27 million
Los Angeles officials long promised the 2028 Olympics would come at no cost to the city, relying on privately raised funds. A new report from LAist finds the city has already spent $27 million on Games-related work, raising questions about who will ultimately pay as preparations continue. Critics say the 'no-cost' pledge is eroding, while organisers point to tight budgets and rising costs for major events.
Why now: Voters and taxpayers are scrutinising whether LA is breaking its promise that the 2028 Games would not cost the city anything.
