Paris was awarded the 2024 Summer Olympics and Los Angeles was handed the 2028 edition on Wednesday, as the International Olympic Committee broke with decades of tradition to vote on a unique double allocation.

Paris, which has hosted two previous Olympics, will stage the event 100 years after its last games in 1924, while Los Angeles will also organize its third games after 1932 and 1984.

There were no other candidates for either the 2024 or 2028 Games and the votes, held at an IOC session in the Peruvian capital, were a formality.
