From the 26th July-11th August over 10,000 athletes and millions more fans will journey to Paris for the most famous sporting event in the world. 206 nations, 32 sports and 329 medals; who will make history and who will walk away disappointed? We have broken down some of the best events Engage offer hospitality for, so you don’t miss any of the action.

Opening Ceremony

Perhaps one of the most iconic scenes of the Olympic Games, the opening ceremony will take place on the 26th July, in particularly unique circumstances. For the first time in Olympic Summer Games history the opening ceremony will take place outside of a stadium and will be held on the River Seine. That’s right, the wire that runs through The City of Light will carry boats delegated for each nation, parading athletes along the famous river.

Millions are expected to spectate this one-of-a-kind ceremony and line the banks of the Seine. Do you want to wish the athletes a ‘bonne chance’? You can be there to do it in person. Be part of history with Engage Hospitality and check out their offers to watch this unique ceremony from the best seats in the house!
