Olympics

Salt Lake City has said it prefers 2034, although it has left open 2030 as a possibility.

The Salt Lake City-Utah Committee for the Games is continuing to work toward securing either the 2030 or 2034 Winter Olympics. The bid process has entered a new phase.

The Salt Lake City-Utah Committee for the Games held a strategic board meeting in Salt Lake City Thursday.

A recent report from the International Olympic Committee says Utah is still using 100% of its Olympic venues from 2002. That could be a deciding factor as the state pursues a second Olympics.
