The 2024 Paris Summer Olympics

Opening Ceremony Finale

A Viewing Party & Networking Reception

​

​​

Troutman Pepper hosted a wonderful event spanning 2 hours where participants snacked and watched the last hour of NBC's Paris Olympics Opening Ceremony coverage, followed by another hour of relaxed networking, refreshments, and Franco-American camaraderie kicking off the first weekend of the Games! Those who joined wore red, white, and blue or previous Olympics fashion in order to show their support for the U.S. and French Delegations or their favorite team.​

The Games officially opened on Friday, July 26, 2024. Instead of being held in a traditional stadium, the 2024 Opening Ceremony took the form of a four-mile-long floating procession down the Seine River. Athletes and performers rode through the heart of Paris in approximately 160 boats, with the parade ending at the Trocadero. The Opening Ceremony concluded there with a final show as the Eiffel Tower lights up the night.

​

NBC’s coverage of the Opening Ceremony of the 2024 Paris Olympic Games started at noon ET on July 26. Kelly Clarkson and Peyton Manning joined Mike Tirico as the hosts of NBC’s Opening Ceremony coverage. Savannah Guthrie and Hoda Kotb, hosts of “Today,” were also part of the broadcast team.

​​

A recording of the Opening Ceremony aired again in primetime, beginning at 7:30 PM ET on NBC.

The stream of the primetime show is available to watch on Peacock.com, NBCOlympics.com, NBC.com and the NBC/NBC Sports apps. You can also visit Olympics.com for more information about the proceedings and the games.
