The 2024 Summer Olympics are set to begin on July 26 in Paris, featuring a grand opening ceremony that includes a boat parade on the River Seine, a unique twist compared to previous Games. Athletes from around the world, including Team USA stars like Simone Biles and Katie Ledecky, are prepared for both competition and camaraderie amid the 39 sports and 329 events.
