Which Cities Have Hosted The Olympics

Rio de Janeiro is the first South American city to host the Games. In 2022, Asia will host its eighth Olympics and will become the first continent other than Europe to host three consecutive Olympic Games.

Notes: Athens held Summer Games in 1906, but the International Olympic Committee does not consider them official. Games were not held in 1916, 1940 and 1944 because of World Wars I and II. Winter Games were rescheduled so that they were no longer held the same year as the Summer Games starting in 1994.
