The volunteer application portal for the 2028 Los Angeles Olympic and Paralympic Games opens July 14, exactly two years before the planned start of the Olympics opening ceremony. Organizers say the program will offer about 60,000 volunteer roles across the Games.
LA28 states that volunteers are required to commit to a minimum number of shifts during the Games period: at least 10 shifts within a defined timeframe. The Los Angeles Times outlines the general process for applying, including how interested people can access information and complete applications through the official portal once it goes live.
Across the reports, the key details centered on timing and participation requirements: the July 14 opening date, the approximate scale of the volunteer workforce (60,000 roles), and the minimum shift commitment expected of those selected. The coverage focuses on helping prospective applicants understand when applications begin and what the baseline commitment entails, rather than on any changes to the broader Games planning.
