One hundred years after the Summer Games Paris 1924, the Games are back in France, and we have huge ambition for Paris 2024. Our aim is to share this unique celebration with the largest number of people possible, and to offer a new event model, one that is open to all and in tune with people’s aspirations, especially those of the younger generations. Paris 2024 will be a spectacular celebration that takes sport out of the stadiums and into new and unexpected places: to the foot of the Eiffel Tower and on the Champ de Mars, inside the Grand Palais, in front of the Invalides, on the Place de la Concorde, in the park of the Château de Versailles. Even the Opening Ceremony, taking place in the very heart of the city, on the Seine, will attract over 600,000 spectators.. They will also be interactive Games – the first in Olympic history to include mass participation events alongside programmes to open the Games up to all the communities, sports stakeholders and citizens who aspire to be part of this once-in-a-lifetime journey. They will be responsible Games, with maximum use of existing infrastructure ensuring we only build facilities that the local population really needs. And they will be useful Games, which mobilise political, economic, community and cultural decision-makers, as well as the sports movement, to put more sport into people’s daily lives. As the spotlight has now turned towards 2024, everything is in place to bring our ambition to life. Already, we have 27 worldwide and national partners by our side; more than 20,000 businesses registered to tender for Games contracts; more than 2,300 local communities engaged in promoting sport and the Olympic and Paralympic values; almost 300,000 members signed up to the Paris 2024 Club and every part of the French sports movement engaged. All of France is getting ready to welcome the world in 2024. TONY ESTANGUET PRESIDENT OF PARIS 2024 MESSAGE OF THE PRESIDENT 100 years after the Summer Games Paris 1924, the Games are back in France, and we have huge ambition for Paris 2024.

.1 A CELEBRATION OPEN TO EVERYONE On 8 August 2021, Paris officially became the next host city for the Olympic Games. To mark the event, Paris 2024 brought the City of Light to hundreds of millions of TV viewers, to the sound of a reworked version of the Marseillaise. Viewers were treated to a thrilling BMX race across the rooftops of Paris; and a gigantic Paris 2024 flag was flown from the Eiffel Tower, as planes streaked the colours of the French flag across the sky. In the Trocadéro gardens, French medallists returning from Tokyo celebrated the Games’ arrival in France, with over 5.000 at the Livestream. Paris 2024 is breaking the mould: for the first time ever, the Opening Ceremony of the Summer Olympic Games will be held in the very heart of the city, aboard a flotilla of boats carrying participants down the Seine. The world’s greatest celebration of sport, in the world’s finest city! AN OPEN-HEARTED AND POPULAR CELEBRATION Never before will so many people have shared in the experience of an Opening Ceremony: at least 600,000 spectators will be watching from the quays and bridges along the Seine. Around half will be admitted free of charge! PARIS’ ARCHITECTURAL HERITAGE AS AN UNEQUALLED BACKDROP The Seine, its bridges and the monuments of the capital will serve as the backdrop to a breathtaking spectacle, in which artistic performances blend harmoniously with sporting performances. THE TOKYO HANDOVER CEREMONY A HISTORIC CEREMONY IN THE HEART OF THE CITY 1 A UNIQUE EXPERIENCE FOR SPECTATORS AND ATHLETES ALIKE With an uninterrupted view along the Seine, a sound system and 80 enormous screens installed along the route, spectators will not miss a moment of the spectacle, and can drink in the unique atmosphere permeating every corner of the city. The athletes will be at the heart of the ceremony as never before: they will kick proceedings off, and contribute to the ceremony from beginning to end, as they pass down the Seine. They will have a superb view of the capital, and will get a glimpse of the exceptional venues in which they are to perform. A CEREMONY DEVISED THROUGH CLOSE COLLABORATION The Opening Ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games has come about through shared ambition and close collaboration between the State, the Paris municipal authorities, the Île-de-France regional authorities, the IOC and the CNOSF. Throughout 2021, Paris 2024 has been working closely with the public authorities to validate all aspects of the plans: operational, technical, financial, judicial and regulatory. This work will continue in 2022. The artistic direction for the ceremony will also be chosen in 2022. Teddy Rinner Three-Time olympic champion judoka "Experiencing an Olympic Ceremony, while representing France, is always intensely emotional. But to experience it here, in France, at the heart of Paris and in direct contact with spectators who have come from all over France and all over the world, will indubitably be unforgettable. This Opening Ceremony will break the mould. Even now, I cannot wait to be there!" © B a p t i s t e P a q u o t / K M S P © Paris 2024/pawel.gaul/Florian Hulleu © Paris 2024 / Florian Hulleu © Paris 2024 / Florian Hulleu PARIS 2024 OPEN GAMES PARIS 2024 OPEN GAMES PARIS 2024 PARIS 2024 8 9 6KM ROUTE ALONG THE SEINE 160 BOATS 600.000 SPECTATORS A SOME AT LEAST 10 TIMES MORE PEOPLE THAN THE STADE DE FRANCE COULD ACCOMMODATE ©BOBY
CULTURE AT THE HEART OF THE GAMES Opening up the Games also means opening up perspectives and removing barriers to forge closer links between sport and art, and between artists and athletes. To create an even more innovative and creative spectacle, Paris 2024 has placed culture at the heart of its plans: BY COMBINING SPORT AND CULTURE , at the foot of some of France’s most iconic monuments, such as the Eiffel Tower or the Château de Versailles. BY COMBINING SPORT AND CULTURE at all celebration venues. BY AIMING TO UNEARTH NEW TALENT throughout the Cultural Olympiad and then the Olympic Festival, with a special focus on young generations of artists, emerging trends and countertrends. BY WELCOMING CULTURES FROM AROUND THE WORLD , promoting diversity and the mixing of cultures. The Cultural Olympiad has been organised in collaboration with the Ministry of Culture and its associated institutions, and all the stakeholders involved in bringing Paris 2024 to life. It began with the last breath of the Tokyo Games. Cultural events took place as part of Paris' 20th annual "Nuit Blanche" celebrations. Flagship institutions like the Théâtre National de la Danse and the Musée du Quai Branly have also contributed. The whole cultural ecosystem will be working overtime throughout the first half of 2022. © Cameron Spencer/Getty Images PARIS 2024 OPEN GAMES PARIS 2024 10

THE NEW OLYMPIC SPORTS .3 BREAKING, A NEW OLYMPIC SPORT BREAKING will make its Olympic Games debut in Paris, in 2024. Popular with youth all over the world, this new urban sport combines ART, DANCE AND MUSIC , as well as STRENGTH AND ATHLETICISM. The breaking events (B-Boys and B-Girls) will be held at LA CONCORDE , an urban park in the heart of the city that will host all the Olympic urban sport disciplines (3X3 basketball, BMX freestyle, breaking and skateboarding) as well as public entertainment events (concerts, cultural exhibitions, sports demonstrations, etc.). Four additional sports have been chosen to feature in the Paris 2024 programme in line with the opportunity provided by the IOC. The aim was to select sports which: REFLECT THE MODERN WORLD are fully gender-balanced and will inspire new audiences, especially among young people. Are DYNAMIC AND SPECTACULAR with the promise of exceptional performances to excite spectators. BRING SOMETHING DIFFERENT , to the programme, including the opportunity to build bridges with culture and inspire both creativity and participation by being accessible to all. Martin Lejeune breaking athlete, silver medallist at the 2018 Youth Olympic Game "Including breaking in the Games is great news. It’s a sign that our discipline is growing and being recognised. Moreover, the competition will take place in the heart of Paris, at the Concorde, which will shine a spotlight on our sport. With all the urban sports concentrated into one space, the urban park will be the place to be during the summer of 2024, with a festive atmosphere like no other." © 2 0 1 8 / C I O / R U T A R , U b a l d Shohei Uda for OIS/IOC 1 PARIS 2024 OPEN GAMES PARIS 2024 14
PARIS 2024’S ADDITIONAL SPORTS SPORT CLIMBING was included in the Olympic programme for the first time at the Tokyo Games, with a single event combining three disciplines, i.e., speed climbing, bouldering and lead climbing. At Paris 2024, at the Bourget venue in Seine-Saint- Denis, the programme will be expanded to include two separate events — speed climbing and a separate lead and boulder event — that will not only be spectacular but will complement each other perfectly. SKATEBOARDING will take a new leap forward after the Tokyo Games, with street and park events to be held at the extraordinary urban park at Place de la Concorde. SURFING , a truly breath-taking sport with strong links to the natural world, will provide an additional opportunity to promote the French natural heritage and open up the Olympic experience to new territories — this time in Tahiti. In the shortboard event, athletes will surf on one of the world’s most beautiful waves, Teahupo’o. Johanne Defay 2017 surfing vice world champion "Teahupo’o is a world-class surf spot, with the most spectacular wave of the planet; the most demanding as well. We athletes could not have dreamed of a better outcome. I have no doubt that the competition will be as intense as it will be breathtaking. Paris 2024 will highlight the environmental and cultural uniqueness of Tahiti, a place surf calls home. All these factors point to a magnificent showcase that will promote our sport and develop its practice in France ." © S e a n M .

.4 SPECTATORS TO BECOME GAMES PARTICIPANTS Yonathan Kellerman For the first time in the history of the Games, Paris 2024 is inviting spectators to get on their feet and EXPERIENCE THE GAMES AS ATHLETES THEMSELVES. The Paris 2024 GENERAL PUBLIC MARATHON will be staged on the same courses as the elite races, promising an unprecedented IMMERSIVE AND UNIQUELY EXCITING EXPERIENCE FOR THE GENERAL PUBLIC. The general public marathon will comprise TWO RACE FORMATS, with races over 10 and 42km, so that everyone... whether experienced athletes or beginners, young or old, able-bodied or PERSONS WITH DISABILITIES , can enjoy this exceptional Olympic Games experience. While the number of places and how they will be allocated will be decided in 2022, one thing is certain: numerous activations will be organised through the PARIS 2024 CLUB, GAMES PARTNERS AND STAKEHOLDERS OF THE INTERNATIONAL SPORTS MOVEMENT in order to attract as many participants as possible. In fact, more than 2.000 Club Paris 2024 members have already secured their places! Delphine 43, resident of Saint-Brévin, Paris 2024 Club member "I’ve been running in a small family club for years. Participating in the Paris 2024 general public marathon is a dream come true and a reward for all those who, like me, keep going to the end, even though they are not top-level athletes." UNPRECEDENTED CHALLENGES TO EARN A RUNNER'S BIB! On Sunday 31 October 2021, marking 1000 day to go before the Paris 2024 Olympics, 3,600 runners – all members of Club Paris 2024 – took part in a unique race. On the world's most splendid avenue – the Champs Elysées – they pitted themselves against two-time Olympic marathon winner, Eliud Kipchoge, of Kenya. The champion was last to start, but managed to overtake more than half the other runners. Those who held onto their lead were rewarded with a runner's bib for the public marathon at Paris 2024. 1 PARIS 2024 OPEN GAMES PARIS 2024 16

"TERRE DE JEUX" 2024 : THE SPIRIT OF THE GAMES ALL OVER FRANCE © Benjamin Boccas PARIS 2024 OPEN GAMES PARIS 2024 20 Paris 2024 created the "Terre de Jeux 2024" label in 2019 with the objective of involving all of France’s territories as well as the sports movement (federations, leagues, committees, clubs) in the Olympic and Paralympic adventure starting now, without having to wait for the Games themselves. With the "Terre de Jeux 2024" label, even the smallest municipality or the largest French region CAN JOIN IN BY CREATING INITIATIVES AIMED AT PROMOTING SPORT IN THEIR TERRITORY and sharing the excitement of the Paris 2024 adventure. PRE-GAMES TRAINING CENTRES: HOSTING CHAMPIONS IN THE MAKING THE ACTORS OF THE SPORTS MOVEMENT ARE ALSO A PART OF THE ADVENTURE: The Olympic and Paralympic federations on the Paris 2024 Games sports programme have received the label, and have been followed by other sports federations and school sports federations. The label has also been extended to all French embassies around the world, with the goal of involving not only French people living abroad, but also francophones, francophiles and all who wish to participate in the Games in whatever capacity.

FEW NEW FACILITIES WILL BE BUILT AND THOSE THAT ARE WILL MEET LONG-TERM NEEDS , in particular for the inhabitants of the département of Seine-Saint-Denis. This département is one of the poorest in France, where sports infrastucture and housing are in very short supply. The Games will thus leave a useful legacy. This funding will PAY FOR ALL EXPENDITURE LINKED TO THE ORGANISATION OF THE GAMES , including venue hire, overlay and operations, competition organisation, delegation hospitality, athlete accommodation and transport, competition venue security, and the Opening and Closing Ceremonies.

PARIS 2024 OPEN GAMES PARIS 2024 26 THE PARTNERS, VITAL TO THE SUCCESS OF THE GAMES The partners, whether worldwide (members of the IOC’s TOP programme) or national (premium, official or supporters), will play a vital role in the organisation and success of the Paris 2024 Games. Beyond their financial contribution, they provide PRODUCTS AND SERVICES NEEDED FOR THE ORGANISATION OF THE GAMES , and operational support during the event. Ten of the partners (Atos, Alibaba, Intel, Omega, Panasonic, Samsung, Visa, Orange, Cisco and DXC Technology) are already actively working with Paris 2024 on designing technological systems and operations. The partners also share THEIR KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERTISE, HELPING TO MAKE THE GAMES RESPONSIBLE AND SUSTAINABLE. The implementation of concrete solutions within Pulse, the headquarters of the Organising Committee, illustrates this contribution. For example, EDF is supplying 100% renewable energy, produced in France, while Coca-Cola has provided water and soda fountains. This is the first stage in the rollout of these solutions across all competition venues, helping achieve our goal of sustainable Games, with a minimal carbon footprint and zero single-use plastic. Finally, the partners are TRUE AMBASSADORS FOR THE PARIS 2024 VISION , using their ecosystems to spread the word (among their employees, customers, suppliers, etc.) and participating fully in our heritage programmes. They help promote sporting activities through Olympic Day, and sport in schools with the Olympic and Paralympic Week. Allianz, Toyota and Groupe BPCE have shown particularly strong commitment to these two annual events. They also encourage the Olympic and Paralympic athletes whom they sponsor – nearly 300 athletes in total – to engage with the general public. For example, FDJ, Bridgestone and EDF were among the foremost players during the Tokyo Games live stream, helping to share the powerful emotions stirred up by sport with as many people as possible.
