2024 Summer Olympic games will be held at:

Question

Accepted Answer

The correct option is (1):
Paris was officially designated as the host city for the Games of the XXXIII Olympiad, the 2024 Summer Olympic Games, following a decision by the International Olympic Committee (IOC). This historic selection was announced on September 13, 2017, during the 131st IOC Session. The hosting of the 2024 Games is particularly significant for Paris as it will mark exactly 100 years since the city last hosted the Summer Olympics in 1924, demonstrating its deep and recurring role in the history of the modern Olympic movement. The city's comprehensive plan focused on sustainability and leveraging existing iconic venues, which helped secure its selection.

The incorrect option is (2):
Tokyo hosted the most immediate preceding Summer Olympic Games, the Games of the XXXII Olympiad. These Games were originally scheduled for 2020 but took place in 2021 following a postponement due to global health concerns. As the Summer Olympics adhere to a traditional four-year rotational cycle, it is not possible for Tokyo to host the subsequent 2024 edition. The event has already concluded in this city, and the focus has shifted to the next host.

The incorrect option is (3):
Beijing has a notable history with the Olympics, but it is not the host for the 2024 Summer Games. Beijing previously hosted the Summer Olympics in 2008. Furthermore, it made history by becoming the first city to host both the Summer and Winter Olympic Games when it hosted the 2022 Winter Olympics. This recent hosting of the Winter Games, combined with the general rotation of the Summer Games, makes it ineligible for the 2024 Summer edition.

The incorrect option is (4):
Los Angeles is also a selected future host for the Summer Olympic Games, but it is scheduled to host the 2028 Games (the Games of the XXXIV Olympiad). The IOC made a concurrent announcement awarding both the 2024 and 2028 Games to Paris and Los Angeles, respectively. This ensured stability for the Olympic calendar, but confirms that Los Angeles is planned for the subsequent cycle after Paris.
