Top events to attend at the Olympic Games Paris 2024

As the Olympic Games makes its grand return to Paris, France, on 26 July — for the first time in 100 years, no less — fans of the sporting event are already getting excited about the incredible array of events and competitions to attend. At the heart of the action is hospitality specialist and official sponsor for the Olympic Games, On Location, which is offering a range of spectacular, first-of-its-kind luxury packages, providing unparalleled access and luxury to the biggest competition in the sporting calendar — as well as unique off-venue packages. 

Here, we highlight just some of the incredible events On Location’s team is excited for that spectators should have on their Paris 2024 radar.The Opening Ceremony

No sporting event is ever complete without an opening ceremony. This is the event where the host country or city gets to showcase the best of their talents, resources and hospitality. And the Olympic Games Paris 2024 opening ceremony is no different. For the first time in Olympic Games history, the opening ceremony will take place on the river Seine in the heart of the city, with the Eiffel Tower as the backdrop — an unmissable spectacle for Olympics fans.

And the best part is, On Location has the perfect way for guests to enjoy this prestigious ceremony in complete luxury, with once-in-a-lifetime gold and silver packages offering a range of perks to enjoy at the event. Guests can either indulge in the Riverside Package, which offers prime views, hospitality spaces, buffet and drinks, live entertainment and more or the Quayside Package, which offers guests views of the opening ceremony and the Olympic athletes’ parade from a docked boat.Athletics

Athletics is one of the most watched events in the Olympic Games catalogue and for very good reason too, because there is something truly exhilarating about watching people racing down to the finish lines at lightning speed. And you can get even closer to the action with On Location‘s On The Finish Line package offering guests privileged access to premium hospitality experiences with rare finish line views.

Athletics encompasses a group of track and field events covering a wide variety of sports, with competitions featuring running, walking, jumping and throwing under different disciplines. Select your favourite athletics events and check out On Location’s highly limited Finish Line package to elevate your athletics experience.Tennis

Tennis is a crowd favourite at every event, but especially at the Olympic Games. There is nothing better than watching some of the biggest names in the sport compete in the most prestigious sporting event in the world from a private box at the famed Roland Garros Stadium — and with On Location’s private box offering, you can do exactly that.

This is the most elevated hospitality experience offered by On Location, and features services like exclusive use of the box before, during or after sporting sessions, dedicated premium seats, fine dining, dedicated hostess and service team at your disposal, access to on-site guest concierge and more. Guests can tailor each experience to suit their needs — from holding a meeting with top clients to celebrating with family and friends — all with the best views of the action.Road Cycling

If you’re a cycling enthusiast and love exploring on two wheels, then road cycling might be the sport for you. At the Olympic Games, the sport is divided into two different events: the road race and the individual time trial. The road race sees every cyclist start at the same time and is a huge feat of endurance, while the individual time trial sees cyclists set off at different times and covers a shorter distance.

Road cycling is one of the longest standing sports at the Olympic Games and if you’d like to catch glimpses of the cyclists as they race by or simply want to explore the city of Paris while you’re there for the sporting competitions, On Location has a range of travel packages to choose from. Designed to help guests plan the smoothest trip possible, these packages offer services like guaranteed session tickets, accommodation in central Paris, curated tours and more.
