There are both summer Olympic games and winter Olympic games. Both of which are held four years apart with a two year interval between the summer games and the winter games. So for example, if the last summer Olympics were held in 2004, then the next olympic games will be held this summer, 2008.The Summer and Winter Olympic Games were held every four years and until 1992 they were both held in the same year. Since then they have been separated by a two year gap.
