With more than 10,000 athletes competing in 329 disciplines across 32 sports, there really is nothing that compares.

Whether you're a diehard fan or just a casual viewer, sometimes all it takes is just one race, bout, or routine to get you hooked – with something among the wonderful and, occasionally, weird events on offer for everyone.

That's the magic of the games. You might be a Sailing superfan, a Diving devotee, or an Equestrian enthusiast in waiting, you just don't know it yet!

The Paris 2024 programme is stuffed full of sports to get your teeth into – and there's even a brand new event, as Breaking will be included in the Olympics for the very first time.
