We’re just one week away from the 2024 Summer Olympics, which takes place from July 26 to August 11 in France.
The opening ceremony is scheduled to start on July 26 at 12:30 p.m. CDT with classic Parisian splendor and style, a star-studded cast of performers, and a spectacular parade of athletes in boats down the River Seine, past the city’s most majestic landmarks.
This year will be the second time in history that the opening of the Olympic Games will be held outside a stadium, the first being the 2018 Summer Youth Olympics opening ceremonies.
The 2024 Summer Olympics will feature 329 events in 32 sports, including the 28 “core” Olympic sports contested in 2016 and 2020, and four optional sports that were proposed by the Paris Olympic Committee.
This year, Paris will feature the debut of breakdancing as an Olympic event, while skateboarding, sport climbing, and surfing will return from 2020.
Four events have also been dropped from weightlifting, two sprint events in canoeing have been replace with two slalom events, and in sport climbing, the previous “combined” event has been divided into separate speed climbing and boulder and lead disciplines for each gender.
The following schedule is correct as of the latest update. The exact schedule can change up until the end of the games.[84]
