Inside LA’s Massive Olympic Stadium Overhaul

Thanks for watching!

The Los Angeles Memorial Coliseum is set to make history once again as it becomes the first venue to host three Olympic Games. Built in 1923 for less than $1 million, the stadium has seen legendary moments across sports and culture. However, preparing for the 2028 Olympics comes with challenges, particularly the need to reintroduce a track. A $100 million temporary platform will be constructed above the existing field to accommodate the events, while surrounding Exposition Park undergoes a $351.5 million transformation. While LA28 is privately funding the Coliseum upgrades, taxpayer money is involved in broader infrastructure improvements, sparking debate over long-term value. Despite concerns, these renovations position the Coliseum to shine on the world stage once more. As Los Angeles prepares for the Games, the balance between legacy and modernization remains a defining challenge.
