      NEW Paris 2024 ‘one-year-to-go’ content will be added on 25 July & 26 July # MEDIA ADVISORY: Wednesday, July 26 marks ‘One Year To Go’ until Paris 2024 - a new era for the Olympic Games STORY: Wednesday, July 26 is exactly one year until Paris 2024, a new era for the Olympic Games which will be celebrated in France and around the globe. This week’s activities and celebrations will show how the Olympic Games is adapting to one of the world’s foremost cities. This will be the first Games planned and delivered fully in line with the reforms of Olympic Agenda 2020, serving as a blueprint for future Olympic Games to inspire other major events. For the first time in history, athlete participation will be 50 percent female. Paris 2024 will also set new sustainability standards for major sporting events, reducing the Games’ carbon footprint by half. Parisian monuments will be transformed into competition venues, with everyone having the chance to be involved, whether or not they have a ticket. The Games will be more urban than ever before, with a compact setting and opportunities for mass participation. The Marathon Pour Tous will give 20,024 members of the public a chance to run the Olympic course. On July 26 next year the first-ever Olympic Games Opening Ceremony to be held in a city centre will take place, on the River Seine at the heart of Paris. Over seven million tickets have already been sold for the 19 days of competition next summer. Next update tomorrow 25 July
