Paris Olympics 2024 \u2014 day one<\/em><\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

Thirteen gold medals will be handed out at the Paris Olympics 2024 today after the Games officially got underway with a unique but rain-soaked opening ceremony down the River Seine on Friday.

But today the attention will finally turn to medals with gold up for grabs across multiple sports: four in swimming, two each in cycling, fencing, and judo, and one each in diving, shooting, and rugby sevens.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

 Paris<\/a> olympics 2024 is the host city, with events held in 16 additional cities spread across Metropolitan France<\/a>, and one subsite in Tahiti<\/a>, French Polynesia<\/a>.

Paris olympics 2024 was awarded the Games at the 131st IOC Session<\/a> in Lima<\/a>, Peru, on 13 September 2017. After multiple withdrawals that left only Paris<\/a> and Los Angeles<\/a> in contention, the International Olympic Committee<\/a> (IOC) approved a process to concurrently award the 2024 and 2028 Paris Olympics<\/a> to the two remaining candidate cities; both of the bids were praised for high technical plans and innovative ways to use a record-breaking number of existing and temporary facilities. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Most of the Olympic events will be held in the city of Paris olympics 2024 and its metropolitan region, including the neighbouring cities of Saint-Denis<\/a>, Le Bourget<\/a>, Nanterre<\/a>, Versailles<\/a>, and Vaires-sur-Marne<\/a>.

The basketball preliminaries and handball finals will be held in Lille<\/a>, which is 225 km (140 mi) from the host city; the sailing and some football games will be held in the Mediterranean city of Marseille<\/a>, which is 777 km (483 mi) from the host city; meanwhile, the surfing events are expected to be held in Teahupo’o<\/a> village in the overseas territory of French Polynesia<\/a>, which is 15,716 km (9,765 mi) from Paris, the host city.

Football will also be hosted in another five cities, which are Bordeaux<\/a>, D\u00e9cines-Charpieu<\/a> (Lyon<\/a>), Nantes<\/a>, Nice<\/a> and Saint-\u00c9tienne<\/a>, some of which are home to Ligue 1<\/a> clubs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Medals<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Paris olympics 2024 president Tony Estanguet unveiled the Olympic and Paralympic medals<\/a> for the Games in February 2024, which on the obverse featured embedded hexagon-shaped tokens of scrap iron that had been taken from the original construction of the Eiffel Tower<\/a>, with the Games logo engraved into it.

Approximately 5,084 medals would be produced by the French mint<\/a> Monnaie de Paris<\/a> olympics 2024, and were designed by Chaumet<\/a>, a luxury jewellery firm based in Paris olympics 2024.

The reverse of the medals features Nike<\/a>, the Greek goddess of victory, inside the Panathenaic Stadium<\/a> which hosted the first modern Olympics<\/a> in 1896. Parthenon and the Eiffel Tower can also be seen in the background on both sides of the medal.

Each medal weighs 455\u2013529 g (16\u201319 oz), has a diameter of 85 mm (3.3 in) and is 9.2 mm (0.36 in) thick. The gold medals are made with 98.8 percent silver and 1.13 percent gold, while the bronze medals are made up with copper, zinc, and tin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Security<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Paris olympics reached an agreement with Europol<\/a> and the UK Home Office<\/a> to help strengthen security and “facilitate operational information exchange” and “international law enforcement cooperation” during the Games.

Within the agreements, it was planned to deploy more drones and sea barriers to prevent small boats from crossing the channel<\/a> illegally. The British Army<\/a> will also be deploying Starstreak<\/a> surface-to-air missile units for air security.

Police in Paris olympics held inspections and rehearsals within their bomb disposal unit before the Games, similar to their preparations for the 2023 Rugby World Cup<\/a> at the Stade de France<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Volunteers<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Paris 2024 volunteer platform for the Olympic and Paralympic Games was opened to the public in March 2023. There were expected to be 45,000 volunteers recruited worldwide for the Games.

Following the end of registration on 3 May 2023, over 300,000 applications had been submitted to the Paris olympics 2024 Organizing Committee, exceeding the number of applicants for the previous two Olympics. Applicants were notified of the outcome of their application between September and December 2023. Over 800 applicants were excluded over security fears, among which 15 were flagged with Fiche S<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Sports<\/em><\/strong><\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The programme of the Paris Olympics 2024 will feature 329 events in 32 sports, including the 28 “core” Olympic sports contested in 2016 and 2020,[121]<\/a><\/sup> and four optional sports that were proposed by the Paris olympics 2024 Organising Committee

 breaking<\/a> will make its Paris Olympic 2024 debut as an optional sport, while skateboarding<\/a>, sport climbing<\/a>, and surfing<\/a> will return from 2020.

 Four events have been dropped from weightlifting. In canoeing, two sprint events have been replaced with two slalom events, keeping the overall total at 16. In sport climbing, the previous “combined” event has been divided into separate speed climbing<\/a> and boulder<\/a> and lead<\/a> disciplines for each gender. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
