Google Doodle Celebrates - Paris Olympic Summer Game Beginning
This Doodle celebrates the thrilling start of the 2024 Summer Games, where new records will be set and history will be made. In a groundbreaking twist, the City of Light kicks off the ceremony not in a stadium but with thousands of athletes floating down the Seine. C’est parti!
The festivities begin with a day packed with excitement, including a speech by the host country’s leader. Following a grand parade of athletes from participating nations, the cauldron will be lit, marking the official start of the games.
Over the next few weeks, the world’s top athletes will compete in a variety of events, from track and field to swimming, basketball, and gymnastics. This year’s competition is particularly exciting, with the addition of new events like break dancing at Place de la Concorde and surfing in Teahupo’o.
Best of luck to all the athletes competing!
