Sports Calendar · Olympics
Olympic Games dates: 11 fixtures from Saturday 15 July 2028 to Monday 31 July 2028.
Saturday 15 July 2028, 01:00
Announced by the organiser, but not yet final.
2028 Stadium (SoFi Stadium), Inglewood, Los Angeles
Watch in the UK: BBC / TNT Sports
17:00 PT Fri 14 July = 01:00 BST Sat 15 July. LA28 publishes a START time but NO end time for either ceremony, so the three-hour window is our duration estimate under F4, not a published figure. Dual-venue for the first time: a simultaneous 'Opening Ceremony - Celebration' runs at the LA Memorial Coliseum.
Sunday 16 July 2028, 01:00
Announced by the organiser, but not yet final.
Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, Exposition Park, Los Angeles
Watch in the UK: BBC / TNT Sports
Session ATH02, 17:00-20:15 PT Sat 15 July = 01:00-04:15 BST Sun 16 July. This is the whole athletics session, not the race alone — LA28 does not publish a time for the final itself and does not run events in the listed order. Athletics opens on day one at LA28, a reversal of every Games since Seoul 1988.
Sunday 16 July 2028, 23:15
Announced by the organiser, but not yet final.
Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, Exposition Park, Los Angeles
Watch in the UK: BBC / TNT Sports
Session ATH04, 15:15-18:55 PT Sun 16 July = 23:15 BST Sun 16 July to 02:55 BST Mon 17 July. The session straddles UK midnight. Whole session, not the race alone — see the section header.
Friday 21 July 2028, 02:00
Announced by the organiser, but not yet final.
DTLA Arena, Downtown Los Angeles
Watch in the UK: BBC / TNT Sports
Session GAR11, 18:00-20:30 PT Thu 20 July = 02:00-04:30 BST Fri 21 July. The men's all-around is deliberately NOT included: F3.1 admits the women's on its global standing, and parity is not a qualification test.
Saturday 22 July 2028, 00:15
Announced by the organiser, but not yet final.
Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, Exposition Park, Los Angeles
Watch in the UK: BBC / TNT Sports
Session ATH14, 16:15-19:20 PT Fri 21 July = 00:15-03:20 BST Sat 22 July. The same session carries the women's 200m semi-finals, which do not qualify.
Saturday 22 July 2028, 22:05
Announced by the organiser, but not yet final.
Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, Exposition Park, Los Angeles
Watch in the UK: BBC / TNT Sports
Session ATH15, 14:05-18:15 PT Sat 22 July = 22:05 BST Sat 22 July to 02:15 BST Sun 23 July. A four-hour session and the earliest UK start of the track programme.
Tuesday 25 July 2028, 02:00
Announced by the organiser, but not yet final.
2028 Stadium (SoFi Stadium), Inglewood, Los Angeles
Watch in the UK: BBC / TNT Sports
Session SWM06, 18:00-20:00 PT Mon 24 July = 02:00-04:00 BST Tue 25 July. Swimming is in week two at LA28, another reversal, and runs 22-30 July with finals at 18:00 PT every night. The well-timed swimming heats (09:30-11:30 PT = 17:30-19:30 BST) are NOT included: heats never qualify, and good UK timing is not a qualification.
Saturday 29 July 2028, 02:00
Announced by the organiser, but not yet final.
2028 Stadium (SoFi Stadium), Inglewood, Los Angeles
Watch in the UK: BBC / TNT Sports
Session SWM14, 18:00-20:00 PT Fri 28 July = 02:00-04:00 BST Sat 29 July. Four days after the women's final, in a separate session — the two do not merge.
Saturday 29 July 2028, 15:15
Announced by the organiser, but not yet final.
Venice Beach Boardwalk (start), Los Angeles
Watch in the UK: BBC / TNT Sports
Session ATH19, 07:15-10:15 PT Sat 29 July = 15:15-18:15 BST. One of only two entries here that is a TRUE event rather than a session window — a single-event session with a genuine published start time. Saturday mid-afternoon in the UK, the best-timed event of the Games. LA28 publishes the START venue only; no finish venue is published yet.
Sunday 30 July 2028, 15:15
Announced by the organiser, but not yet final.
Venice Beach Boardwalk (start), Los Angeles
Watch in the UK: BBC / TNT Sports
Session ATH20, 07:15-10:15 PT Sun 30 July = 15:15-18:15 BST. The other true event, not a session window. Closes the Games on the final day, roughly eight hours before the closing ceremony and at a far better UK hour.
Monday 31 July 2028, 02:00
Announced by the organiser, but not yet final.
Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum, Exposition Park, Los Angeles
Watch in the UK: BBC / TNT Sports
18:00 PT Sun 30 July = 02:00 BST Mon 31 July. No end time is published, so the three-hour window is our F4 estimate. RULED IN by Robin on 2026-08-22, against the compiling pass's own recommendation to drop it on the 02:00-Monday timing — the ceremonies bookend the fortnight and timing is not a qualification test.
