LA28 Paralympic Games: List Of Venues Ft. Peacock Theater, Long Beach

The LA28 Paralympic Games will see the city host the event for the first time, 32 years after the Games were last held in the USA.

Several iconic stadiums and locales are set to host the world’s best para athletes under the venue plan approved by the International Paralympic Committee (IPC) Governing Board.

The planning has been made considering the needs of athletes and requirements of each sport. The objective had been to minimise travel and maximise the use of existing venues around the City of Angels.

All competitions during the LA28 Paralympic Games will take place within a 35-mile (56-kilometre) radius, with para athletes housed in a single Paralympic Village for the first time since Rio 2016.

“The Paralympic Games showcases the highest level of athleticism, skill and endurance and it is important for LA28 to deliver a plan that not only elevates Paralympic sport, but brings it to the next level,” said LA28 Chief Executive Officer Reynold Hoover.

The LA28 Paralympic Games is set to make history with most medal events ever contested in Paralympic history.  

“The Paralympic venue plan ensures that Los Angeles’ first-ever Paralympic Games will take place in incredible existing stadiums and arenas across the region while creating the best possible experience for athletes and fans across the 560 events with accessibility top of mind.”

“The first-ever Paralympic Games in Los Angeles will showcase the world’s top talent and provide an opportunity for L.A. to improve inclusive accessibility citywide,” commented City of Los Angeles Mayor Karen Bass. “The legacy of these Games will be imprinted on our city forever – proliferating beyond the boundaries of these venues to better all of Los Angeles.”

The LA28 Paralympic Games will be spread across three main venue clusters – the cities of Los Angeles, Long Beach and Carson.

The LA Memorial Coliseum, USC Sports Center, Peacock Theater, Arena in Downtown Los Angeles and Convention Center in Downtown Los Angeles will all host a wide array of sports in the heart of the city.

Likewise, Carson’s fields, Velodrome and Tennis Center will welcome para archery, para track cycling and wheelchair tennis for a second round of action during the LA28 Paralympic Games.

Long Beach’s Marine Stadium will host para canoe and para rowing, while the sandy shores of Alamitos Beach will witness blind football.

The Convention Center and surrounding areas will provide stage para climbing, para swimming, shooting para sport and sitting volleyball.

Venice Beach will serve as the start line for para athletics marathon, as well as host to the para triathlon competition.

Para Equestrian events will be held at Santa Anita Park, the same iconic venue that hosted the equestrian events at the Olympic Games in 1984.
