Almost as quickly as they arrived in Paris, the 2024 Summer Olympics are drawing to a close. It seems like just yesterday that Celine Dion’s surprise performance at the Eiffel Tower capped off a rain-soaked Opening Ceremony that saw athletes from around the world enter the games in a boat parade down the River Seine.
Highlights included incredible performances by stars like Simone Biles, Katie Ledecky, Noah Lyles and Stephen Curry for Team USA, as well as some big surprises, like the U.S. men’s gymnastics team taking home a bronze medal.
Controversies were also part of this year’s Games, including American gymnast Jordan Chiles losing her bronze medal in the floor exercise and Algerian boxer Imane Khelif taking gold after a gender controversy made headlines around the world in the middle of the Games.
The 2024 Paralympics are next on the Olympic calendar, scheduled for August 28 to September 8 in Paris. The next Winter Games will be held in Italy in Milan and Cortina d’Ampezzo in February 2026, and the next Summer Olympics will be in Los Angeles in 2028.
