What are the new events at the 2024 Paris Olympics?
Here is the list of the new events that will be on the program for the 2024 Olympics
- climbing
- skateboarding

- breakdance.
When does the Paris 2024 Olympic Games start?
The Organizing Committee for the Olympic Games (OCOG) indicated in February 2019 that these 2024 Paris Olympics, which were initially due to start on August 2, will finally take place from July 26 to August 11, 2024. It is obviously a little early to know the dates of the events, the daily calendar and the TV program for this sports fortnight. These subjects will be studied once the list of sports and the selected sites are official.
When was the Paris 2024 Olympic Games awarded?
The vote and the designation of the host city for the 2024 Olympic Games took place on Wednesday, September 13, 2017, during the 130th session of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) in Lima (Peru), after the final presentations of each of the candidatures, and after the report of the President of the IOC Evaluation Commission. The 84 IOC members present in Peru unanimously validated the tripartite agreement which grants the 2024 Olympic Games in Paris, and those of 2028 in Los Angeles. Recall that Paris had indeed recently failed in its quest in 1992 (beaten by Barcelona), in 2008 (beaten by Beijing) and in 2012 (beaten by London). In 2004, Lille was chosen to represent France, without success either. We have to go back to 1900 and 1924 to find traces of the Summer Olympics in France, each time in the French capital.
