PARIS (Reuters) -The Paris 2024 Olympics opening ceremony will start at 7.30 p.m. local time, organisers said on Friday as they gear up for the final straight before the Games.
"We chose that time to make the most of the light," Paris 2024 president Tony Estanguet told a press conference following the seventh and final Coordination Commission with the International Olympic Committee (IOC).
