About Paris Olympics 2024:

As the Paris Olympics 2024 has already begun, the fans will witness a unique initiative in the Olympic's history during the marquee event's opening ceremony which is held along the Seine River.

The Opening Ceremony promises to be unforgettable, with athlete barges floating down the river starting at the Austerlitz Bridge. They will pass under historic bridges and by iconic landmarks such as Notre Dame and the Louvre, as well as Olympic Games venues including the Esplanade des Invalides and the Grand Palais.

The Paris Olympics 2024 for the first time in history will mark the opening ceremony outside the stadium. Following the ceremony, it will also provide exposure to a larger audience and geographical coverage.

The Indian contingent will be led by two-time Olympics medallist PV Sindhu and table tennis great Sharath Kamal. The 2024 edition will make the fifth Olympic appearance for Kamal.

At the opening ceremony, the Indian men will be dressed in Kurta Bundi sets while the women will don matching saris, reflecting India’s tricolour flag. The outfits, featuring traditional ikat-inspired prints and Banarasi brocade, have been designed by Tarun Tahiliani.

The opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics 2024 will start at 11.00 PM according to Indian Standard Time and will be available on Sports18 1 SD and Sports18 1 HD TV channels in India.

The Jio Cinema will also be streaming the marquee event for free.
