Friday's opening ceremony will be the first of its kind held outside the confines of a stadium, bringing a unique set of security challenges. The 10,500-athlete, 90-boat flotilla will travel a 3½-mile route down the Seine through the middle of Paris. Are you planning on watching the 2024 Olympic opening ceremony? Yes
