An ambition revised downwards. Far from the 600,000 spectators initially expected, the opening ceremony of the Paris 2024 Olympic Games will ultimately welcome 326,000 on Friday July 26 on the banks of the Seine, announced Gérald Darmanin during his Senate hearing on Tuesday March 5. Questioned as part of a fact-finding mission, the Minister of the Interior and Overseas Territories specified that 104,000 people will occupy the lower quays of the Seine. In addition, 222,000 individuals, who will have access to free tickets, will occupy the high platforms during this opening ceremony.
