Councilman Price joined Mayor Bass on May 8 to announce that the 2028 Olympic Opening and Closing Ceremonies, along with the Paralympic Closing Ceremony, will be held at the historic LA Memorial Coliseum in CD 9.
 
In just over 1,100 days, the world will be watching as Los Angeles takes center stage, and the Councilmember made it clear: CD 9 is ready.
 
“We’re geared up and ready to showcase the landmarks that reflect our city’s resilience and creativity—from the birthplace of West Coast Jazz along Central Avenue to the cutting-edge Lucas Museum of Narrative Art right here in Exposition Park. These venues honor our past, celebrate our present, and build toward a future we can all be proud of,” Councilman Price added.
