I like this natural stadium concept. No need for those ginormous stadiums that will only be used once!!
In fact some new stadiums have been builds but yeah this is still better than nothing
@@4Goatifi The Closing Ceremony will be in the Stade de France in the commune of Saint-Denis, France.
Most Olympic venues don't go abandoned contrary to what the media tells you. Athens and Rio are exceptions.
@@gabetalks9275 Greece didn't expect to go broke & Rio.....that was just a bad idea.
@@gabetalks9275 Don't forget about Sochi
This is very exciting. I've noticed that every time the Olympics are held in a city, the venues are usually miles away from the actual city in a completely new area. It's exciting to see how so many venues will literally be in the heart of Paris, with famous landmarks as backdrops! And that opening ceremony? Paris 2024 might take the crown from Beijing 2008 as one of the greatest opening ceremonies of all time!
Really, I thought London' opening ceremonies took that title. It was humanity you can feel across the screen.
Do you really believe that ? You're just fantasizing.
With a staggering debt, how can you party on a global scale ?
Beijing was just spectacular! It's going to be difficult to surpass Beijing's show in 2008, but let's see.
The best opening ceremony was in Athens 2004 in terms of meaning, arts and beauty.
In Tokyo 2020, there were 13 venues planned for 15 sports located in the vicinity of Tokyo Bay. In London 2012, 22 sports were within the Greater London area.
This looks like it’s going to be great Olympics. Paris is beautiful city having the games in the landmark is great concept.
I love Paris, it's the favorite city I visit. I can never get enough. There have been changes necessary because of terror threats, like not being able to walk down the stairs from Trocadero and under the Eiffel Tower, and of course the fire at Notre Dame. I really would not want to be in the city during the games but I think there will be a huge amount of people there and that will be so good for everyone in the city. I'll be watching for sure.
I thought the hope was that Notre Dame would be open by the time the Olympics start ?
God speed France. I'm sure they will do an amazing job!
It Will be a fiasco 😂
@@Pablo24000non. Pessimiste à deux balles.😊
Vous verrez bien dans un an 😊
@@Pablo24000 Pas besoin car j'y travaille.
@@Hugo-cn9no très bien ! Reveillez vous et regardez paris aujourd’hui !
I'm loving how the venue's are mostly already built and the already built environment is being repurposed in the duration of then Olympics. And it feels more intimate than in a massive stadium, and you get to see the sights around you. Fantastic concept! I hope the execution is on par/exceeds expectations.
I hope this concept becomes the new norm for future Olympics. They’re ultimately saving the Parisian citizens millions by keeping everything small.
Please keep the Paris Olympics safe for all. I'll watch the Opening Ceremony for sure. It will be beautiful for sure. Bless my Friend form Wisconsin - Oshkosh and her Father - A Professor at Wisconsin- Oshkosh. Thank you for the few friends I have Made
God I hope you keep the Games Safe - Lord my Stomach is very Ill. I will get my glasses tomorrow - I need sleep and to relax right now. Lord it is your decision on what you plan on with me.
Signing off
She’s white and privileged she will be ok
Excited…went to Paris it’s so beautiful
I'm excited for Paris 2024 and USA 🇺🇸 will going to France 🇫🇷 in Europe 🇪🇺 for Summer Olympic Games.
Good luck... My advice: stay at home with your large screen.
It's already unbearable 1 year in advance and nothing, absolutely nothing is ready.
When Paris was chosen, 78% of French people liked the project.
Then 66%, and today 58 % .
Look at the French press, they don't even mention it because there are so many other things to worry about...
@@user-mp5xk46zq1j-io5- Ok.
@@user-mp5xk46zq1j-io5-Well to late to backout now. All those millions spent it is crazy.
Looking forward to aeeing This glorious City Paris / my fav...celebrate The Olympics!!!! Yay.
So excited! Paris Olympic! So excited! USA!
Wow I absolutely love the idea behind the opening ceremony! Nice to see something different.
Cant wait! Paris deserve a celebration like this!
You are not French ! Thanks !
The decent hardworking, respectable French deserve peace & quiet. These present very major disturbances are most likely to have the effect of swaying any undecided voters in the next Presidential Election. By that date we are likely to have far right governments in Netherlands, Belgium, Spain, Greece, (Sweden'already), Finland (Already) and Italy (already !) possibly Germany and almost surely France !!! . These people have already made Britain a second rate power thanks to the Brexit vote and will destroy France too. Be careful of what you wish for all you liberal, woke doo gooders before its too late
i hope they reach one gold necklace
@@Pablo24000Pablo is not French name
Im so excited. I've been watching olympics from 1996 when i was 13 with my dad. Mum hated it. He died before he got to see it in london. Im 40 now, Daddy, and just like i do every four years, I'll be watching it for us both.
I know this sounds crazy guys. But when something exciting happens... a good gymnastic flick or a skateboarding trick oh and especially rhe 100m. I always jump up and shout out, "Did you see that dad, did you see it?" i keep his memory alive through the olmpics every time, and i constantly talk to him ❤️
Im so excited for paris, and we have spectators, yesssssssss thank god. Tokyo was ok, but without fans, it felt flat and empty. And the athletes deserved some love. Well, im a brit, but i support everyone. Im so excited. Sorry for going on a rant.😂
I womt be moving off my sofa for two weeks. This is my holiday its just every four years.
I glued to my screen every 4 years during summer Olympics too, I tried to stock up health snacks!😅
@___beyondhorizon4664 aww it's the best, isn't it x
So I take it you didn't get the vaxx poison
Wow! thanks for the update!!
This is going to be the first normal Olympics since PyeongChang (Tokyo was delayed by a year for COVID and it happened with no spectators).
Since Beijing actually.
@@ericktellez7632 Beijing wasn’t 100% normal either. You had a very small capped spectators there and no international fans.
Pyeongchang in 2018 was not impacted by Covid
After Paris is Los Angeles. Both of them were awarded simultaneously.
@@brennanrobertson6572 I forgot

15million spectators😮😮😮thats crazy!!!
I am so excited for these Olympics.
Paris hotels are already expensive enough…..it will be even more during the Olympics!
That’s why you need to look up hotels in the surburbs
And don't speak about RBNBs , I have heard of 300 euros...per day !!!
@@RD-tu7tp Les Frenchies estimates a budget of 6500 Euros-8000 Euros per person to attend the Games. That includes airfare at 2000 Euros-2500 Euros, accommodations at 1500 Euros-2000 Euros per week, event tickets at 800 Euros-1500 Euros per week, food at 1000 Euros-1400 Euros per week, activities at 50 Euros-75 Euros per day, Hotels in Paris may be sold out. Suggested cities to stay in are Saint Denis and Versailles. Other cities are Amiens, Beauvais, Compiegne, Chantilly, Melun, and Chartres, all an hour from Paris.
@@RaymondHngActually hardly any of the hotels are in Paris are sold out. These Olympics will be a financial disaster for the city.
This is very exciting! Paris 2024 is such a dream. How can I go? ❤😢
Paris will be in mess for the olympics
Stay at home, you will feel more secure and cool. Not in Paris 🤚
This is a great location for the olympics
Im excited !!!!!!!!!!!
I was just in Paris over the weekend and learned from the hotel manager how EMPTY his and all hotels in Paris will be during the Olympics. Why? Because nearly ALL of the museums and tourist attractions will be shut down then. So people that would normally come to Paris for say, the Louvre, now can’t do so until after the Olympics are over. Paris 2024 will be a massive financial burden for the city.
Olympics are always a well-intentioned mess. Massive potential that always lands incomplete. Breakdancing but so many other sports are neglected. It could be so much more logistically comprehensive too ... sort of like what the World Cup is doing in the Americas. It's touted as a progressive event but their historical stubborness is holding it back from really being the beneficial venue for economy and competition progressing forward.
Can’t wait to watch it
Yes it will be quite a spectacle to watch the looting, burning of shops, hotrel, banks in all the main Paris shopping streets once again. Last night was something to remember for a lifetime. Come share it again with us next July & August. A hearty welcome!
Sustainable venues is the way to go. Can’t wait
I hope I can go to the pairs to admire the beauty one day
Pairs IS the venue. I like it.
Exciting. ♡♡♡
Paris is huge tourists couple attraction, but with Olympic going on, all hotels will be fully booked so it will be impossible to find any hotels available rooms.
It’s actually the exact opposite. I was just in Paris over the weekend and learned from the hotel manager how EMPTY his and all hotels in Paris will be during the Olympics. Why? Because nearly ALL of the museums and tourist attractions will be shut down then. So people that would normally come to Paris for say, the Louvre, now can’t do so until after the Olympics are over. Paris 2024 will be a massive financial burden for the city.
Pretty cool that the athletes will be on boats for the parade
The fact they are using parts of the city is amazing its legit putting money back into the community!
❤❤❤ I'm proud to be Filipino ❤❤❤❤I love Philippines, 😊😊😊
Wish u all the success 🎩
Everything on Time! All the scenarios! And Safe Opening ! 👏👏👏
Breakdancing but no Baseball Cricket, MMA etc . Olympics are always so contradicting and incomplete.
i'll try to be there
SPLENDID!
Me: *hearing that there's an Olympics hosting in Paris*
Also Me: *crossing my fingers that hopefully this time there will be a new Mario and Sonic Olympic Games that will come out after this*
You're not the only one
Can't wait
Bonita infraestrutura
Brisbane, take note. I think having some sports events in different cities (Townsville etc) is going to fail.
and surf at Tahiti (french Polynesia) 😃
Saludos cordiales bendiciones ❤
Breakdancing? The ‘80s called, they want their Olympics back. 😎
They have a NBA basketball arena in Paris!🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀🏀
I like Olympics since 2012 Olympics and I watched many❤
I am a Parisian (borned and raised). I am not looking forward for the world to come into my city... I planned to go on vacation for the entirety of the games and Airbnb my appartement 😅
Good idea. I'd get the heck outta there too. I don't like crowds and Paris is already crowded
Better stay chez vous to make sure 1. Its not looted 2. Burnt down or 3. Have those nice Saint Dennis squatter visitors. And please hide any of your vehicles.I joke NOT !
Avec les Français , toujours les commentaires positifs et optimistes ….quoi qu’il arrive jamais contents .
@@ivanchapus1824 I was actually looking to hear how the Parisian locals feel about this. While events like this are fun for tourists, not once in this video did they explain how this Olympics games would affect the day-to-day life of the native citizens in the area. A lot of times in the past, events of any kind can really disrupt the normal routine of the local people. Issues can include crowds, litter, traffic, delayed public transportation if available, tourist and corporations not respecting local customs, and long lines or wait times for things that are normally quick. Another thing to consider, how much revenue from these events will be used for the benefit of Paris and her people: to support her infrastructure and public services, to meet the needs of her people. Something to think about if being ethical and kind is our goal.
@@ivanchapus1824 Paris dans le top 10 des villes les plus densément peuplées au Monde! Ajoutez à ça les Jeux olympiques.... C'est parfaitement humain de vouloir partir. Et je ne suis pas du tout mécontente, mais opportuniste! Airbnb rapporte beaucoup =)
Yes ,Good 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉
I will be there.😊😊
🙏🙏🙏
I Am So Ready For Paris 2024!!
Love from Assam. India
Where will the track field be take place? I wanna see my sprinters!
Track and field will be in the Stade de France in the commune of Saint-Denis, France. The Closing Ceremony will be there as well.
I will be there too!!
I am so excited, already have my tickets 😊
Fecha, date please
Can’t wait for this also this is just a preview for 28
28 is just a preview of 32
I’m sooooo excited Olympic is my favorite thing to watch especially equestrian
Y pasan las décadas y las Olimpíadas se siguen haciendo en los países hiper ricos, nada nuevo bajo el sol (excepto Río, de casualidad?).
Why would they have the Olympics in a disgusting poor country? It’s supposed to be a fun and safe event.
😢
But the Olympics aren’t held until next year
wonder where the flame will be
O país que eu queria infraestrutura pra as olimpíadas e a Suécia brendo Harley
How about making Nascar racing as an Olympic event.
Spectators will be attending as more in Rio 2016.
In view of 3 nights of the most terrible riots & destruction ever seen since 1789/99 all over Paris & France the Olympic Organising Committee have decided to reduce the price of certain tickets for overseas visitors by 35%. Rush while buildings & tracks stand and check your travel insurance terms carefully
How much development progress underway in Paris Olympics?
You can follow France 24 in English on RUclips
👍👌
wonder when the olympics is going to take place in indian city. Delhi or Mumbai for example..
or, for example, World Cup football
Ankit Baiyanpuria is coming next year.... Be Ready everyone.
How can an Olympics take place given the current calmness in the world?
Maybe some people think lives should be lived not LIV
so this video is about paris... but they interviewed a bunch of americans?
This report is full of propaganda. The journalists don't interview French Parisians but just American tourists.
Well we’re the ones who are going to be spending money at the Olympics so..
❤❤❤😊😊😊
Olympics in Paris and Taylor Swift Touring Europe, summer 2024 is going to be insane!
are we sure will have Mario and Sonic at the Olympic games for Nintendo Switch Future?
Pff 😂
It's been a while the torch has been turned off in here
Si j’ai autant d’argent je vais être là pour voir les sports de la gymnastique et la natation

The success of Paris isn't anything new. Contrary to what the media tells you, most previous Olympics have been sustainable successes. London, Vancouver, Salt Lake, Sydney, Nagano, Lillehammer, Albertville, Calgary, Seoul, LA, Lake Placid, Innsbruck, Mexico City, Tokyo (1964), and Rome all being the best examples.
that's not a very convincing pfp you have
@@TurdBoi-tf5lf Imagine disregarding something that you could easily confirm for yourself because of my pfp.
It will be hot with few hotels having AC.
just think about the FOOD omg im going googly eyed so much FOOD
can u ever getting it so raw
😮😮😮
Dollar General Corporation (DG) looking good as a buy
They took away Olympic baseball and softball and added breakdancing? Good Lord!
Who is ready for fencing, one of the main sport of France!
I didn’t know that break dancing was an actual sport.
These Olympic games will be a great opportunity for Paris to be a recovery event from the 2015 Terrorist attacks and to show its efforts to reconnect after recovering from the pandemic.
scary
Why do these people in the back look like they are Americans from the 1990s
good to see theyre cleaning up the river
You are dreaming
Who has money on The Eifel tower as the cauldron?
It was a good idea for the IOC to hand these games to Paris. Nearly everything pre-existing & a $1+Billion cleanup of the river. This one might make money.
Guess y'all gotta clean up the trash fast now
Please support 2020 Ex Olympian Mission
How is Los Ángeles going to compete with Paris? 🤦♀️ how are our car-congested streets, freeways, sprawl & smoggy air going to compete with this!? 🙏 pls LA, pls step up
Yeah the car dependency here (and everywhere in America it feels) is way too high 🫤
There will probably be reserved lanes for Olympics vehicles. The LAX Automated People Mover is an automated people mover (APM) system around the Los Angeles International Airport area, currently under construction for Los Angeles World Airports and expected to open in 2024. The LAX APM will run 2.25 miles (3.62 km) and will have six stations that connect the Los Angeles Metro Rail, a consolidated rental car center and two intermodal transportation facilities with the airport's central terminal area.
It's not only that. Once the Olympics come around the corner, all of the homeless people flooding the streets will be kicked off the sidewalks and have nowhere else to go.
If this was in Africa or the Middle East the comments will be much different
