The Paris Olympics 2024 will see over 35 venues holding up to 45 sports. These 45 sporting disciplines will have 329 events. Most of the events are to be held in different venues on certain days. Spectators and athletes will have to travel a bit for certain events which are to be held far from Paris.

The Paris Olympics 2024 is divided into two main regions: the city of Paris, Ile-De- France and a few areas around France. Majority of the events are not restricted to a single venue, while few of them will only be conducted at a fixed venue over a period of time.
