Orlando will host qualifying events for the 2028 Olympic Games from June 8 to June 11, 2028. The city will be the only one in the United States to hold these events, which include beach volleyball, skateboarding, flag football, and climbing. These competitions are part of an international series with additional stops in Tokyo, Shanghai, and Montreal.
