There will be a new site for the US Olympic Swim Trials in 2024. USA Swimming announced Tuesday the event will be moving from Omaha to Indianapolis. Omaha’s CHI Health Center hosted the the past four US Olympic Swim Trials in 2008, 2012, 2016 and 2021.
Lucas Oil Stadium, which is home to the Indianapolis Colts will host the nine-day event and will have the ability to double Omaha’s attendance.
The Omaha Sports Commission released this statement after the announcement:
“The Omaha Sports Commission has enjoyed a great relationship with USA Swimming over the past sixteen years, having hosted the last four US Olympic Swim Trials, and we congratulate the city of Indianapolis on their award. While we are disappointed with the news this morning regarding the 2024 Olympic Swim Trials we are proud of the growth the Trials experienced while in Omaha. We have watched over 180 Olympians realize their dreams on the pool deck in Omaha, Nebraska and the Omaha Sports Commission will continue to strategically search for distinctive events that promote sports and continue to shine the spotlight on our city.”
