The 2032 Summer Olympics, officially the Games of the XXXV Olympiad and also known as Brisbane 2032, is a planned international multi-sport event scheduled to take place from 23 July to 8 August 2032 in Brisbane, Australia, with venues across the various regions of Queensland.

As part of the new Olympic bid process, the Future Host Commission of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) nominated Brisbane as its preferred candidate on 24 February 2021. The Brisbane bid was approved on 21 July 2021 during the 138th IOC Session in Tokyo.

It will be the third Olympic Games held in Australia, following the 1956 Summer Olympics in Melbourne, Victoria, and the 2000 Summer Olympics in Sydney, New South Wales; Melbourne and Sydney will host some events during the Games. It will be held in Brisbane's winter, the second Summer Olympics held in the host city's winter after the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. It will also be the first Olympic Games since the 2016 Summer Olympics in Rio de Janeiro to take place in the southern hemisphere.
