Nearly as quickly as they arrived in Paris, the 2024 Summer Olympics are closing down. It seems like just yesterday that Celine Dion’s surprise performance on the Eiffel Tower put an exclamation point on a rainy Opening Ceremony that saw athletes from around the world enter the games in a boat parade down the Seine River.
Incredible performances from stars like Simone Biles, Katie Ledecky, Noah Lyles and Stephen Curry for Team USA were among the highlights, as were some big surprises, like the U.S. men’s gymnastics team taking home a bronze medal.
Controversies were also a part of this year’s Games, including American gymnast Jordan Chiles losing her bronze medal from the floor exercise and Algerian boxer Imane Khelif winning gold after a gender controversy grabbed headlines around the world in the middle of the Games.
The 2024 Paralympics are up next on the Olympic calendar, set for Aug. 28 to Sept. 8 in Paris. The next Winter Games are headed to Italy to be held in Milan and Cortina d’Ampezzo in February 2026, and the next Summer Olympics will be in Los Angeles in 2028.
