The 2028 Olympic soccer final matches will take place at the Rose Bowl in Pasadena, but earlier games will be played at stadiums across the U.S.
Those locations were announced Tuesday by the Olympics organizers. Stadiums in San Diego and San Jose in California will host Olympic soccer matches. So will New York City, Columbus, Nashville and St. Louis.
The venues outside of the L.A.-area will host group stage and knock-out matches in the Olympic tournament ahead of the final stage matches in Pasadena. The Games will allow fans from around the country to view Olympic competitions.
The additional stadiums where Olympic soccer matches will take place are:
- Etihad Park in New York City
- ScottsMiracle-Gro Field in Columbus, Ohio
- GEODIS Park in Nashville, Tennessee
- Energizer Park in St. Louis, Missouri
- PayPal Park in San Jose
- Snapdragon Stadium in San Diego
LA28 said in a news release that organizers "intentionally designed the tournament to include stadiums from the East Coast to West Coast to minimize travel demands."
Dates and locations for the women's and men's tournaments will be announced before ticket sales start in April.
