Host city revealed for 2034 Winter Olympic Games
Salt Lake City was awarded the 2034 Winter Olympic Games in a vote of the International Olympic Committee on Wednesday.
The Utah capital was host of the 2002 Winter Games.
The IOC revealed Salt Lake City earned 83 votes out of a possible 89. The committee revealed the location as its preferred choice in June.
"The Olympics and Paralympics represent so much more than competition. At its core, the Olympic Movement is about building community and celebrating excellence, things we do really well in Utah," Gov. Spencer Cox said. "More than 80 percent of Utahns and 100 per cent of our elected leaders supported our Olympic bid. We're ready to host another Olympic Winter Games, and we can't wait to welcome the world back to Utah in 2034."
France, and the French Alps, received conditional approval as host of the 2030 Winter Games on Wednesday, pending financial guarantees outlined by the IOC.
Also named as a preferred location in June, France was not able to deliver the necessary state and regional financial guarantees on the IOC guideline set forth.
