Get ready for a stunning and memorable Opening Ceremony at the Paris 2024 Olympic Games
On Monday 13 December 2021, the Board of Directors of Paris 2024 approved the unprecedented location and concept for the Opening Ceremony of the Olympic Games Paris 2024
For the first time in a summer edition of the Olympic Games, the ceremony will take place outside of the stadium and right in the heart of Paris.
A 6-kilometre procession will transport athletes along the Seine in a flotilla of some 160 boats, between Pont d’Austerlitz and the Pont d’Iéna. The river, its bridges and the capital’s iconic monuments will serve as the backdrop for a once-in-a-lifetime spectacle, showing the world the very best of Paris, with hundreds of millions of people watching on television.
This bold choice means that the Paris 2024 Opening Ceremony will be more open than any other in the entire history of the Games with at least 600,000 able to experience it in the flesh in the heart of one of the most beautiful cities in the world
