Although we have had two initial days of competition at the 2024 Paris Olympics, there will be a small break in the action Friday – and for good reason.
Athletes will enjoy the opening ceremony Friday in Paris, "marching" with their fellow compatriots, with events returning in full force on Saturday. This will be the first time in the history of the Summer Games that the opening ceremony will not take place inside a stadium, but rather, on the Seine. Boats will carry each members of the respective national delegations, with the parade taking place on the river.
Still, as always, the medal count will be the ultimate measure for bragging rights among the more than 200 countries that will have athletes competing in the Summer Games.
