It is very expensive to host the Olympics (special venues have to be built, there are enormous security requirements, etc.) and you never know in advance if the revenues from ticket sales and broadcasting rights will cover the cost.

One of the biggest disadvantages was the cost. With an increase in security for the event and the building of new venues, London had to lose money to host the games.
