Postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic, the Tokyo Olympics take place this year, in 2021, from July 21 to August 8. With nearly 11000 athletes engaged in 33 sports disciplines, including five new ones on the program, the spectacle will be rich in Japan but without an audience, all events taking place behind closed doors.
• Opening ceremony
If the competition began on July 21, with the first football matches (France lost 4-1 against Mexico) and in softball, the Olympic Games will be officially launched this Friday, July 23 at the opening ceremony at the Olympic Stadium. Meet at 20 p.m. local time (13 p.m. French time) to follow the parade of delegations. An already historic ceremony since it will be the first in history with two flag bearers, a man and a woman, by nation (Clarisse Agbegnenou and Samir Aït-Saïd are the flag bearers of the French delegation).
• Schedules of the tests
There is a seven hour time difference between Paris and Tokyo. The vast majority of the events of these Olympic Games will start at 1 a.m. (French time) and end around 15 p.m. (still French time). The Olympic Games can be followed in full on Eurosport and France Télévisions (France 2, France 3 and France 4).
