PARIS (Reuters) – France’s 2030 winter Olympic bid and Salt Lake City’s 2034 bid will enter into a targetted dialogue with the International Olympic Committee, the IOC said on Wednesday, as it looks for a double allocation of Olympic Games.
France, which will hold the Paris 2024 summer Olympics next year, last staged the winter Games in 1992 in Albertville.
Switzerland and Sweden had also expressed interest in hosting the 2030 Games. Salt Lake City were hosts of the 2002 winter Games. A final decision will be taken in July 2024.
