This coming July, Paris will host the Olympic and Paralympic Games. Everything from a spectator perspective will be different. From the format of the Opening Ceremony to the ticketing process, fans will be able to witness history being made in unique locations, with the opportunity to interact with Olympic athletes like never before!
It’s been six years since American fans attended the Olympic and Paralympic Games; international spectators were barred from the Tokyo Olympic Games in Summer 2021 and the Beijing Olympic Games in 2022 due to Covid-19 restrictions.
While the motto and values of the Olympic Games remain steadfast, the world has changed considerably since fans were sitting shoulder-to-shoulder in the Pyeongchang 2018 stands. And with it, the way in which Paris 2024 will be experienced.
Opening Ceremony on the Seine
For the first time in Olympic Games history, the Opening Ceremony will not be held in a stadium, but rather via a parade of boats on the River Seine, with Paris as a backdrop. France’s capital city will also hold the first Olympic Games that achieves a 50-50 split between male and female athletes, compared with Rio 2016 (47.5% female) and Tokyo 2020 (48.8% female). Snoop Dogg, rapper and savvy businessman, will be a new face of primetime coverage.
But most excitingly, Paris 2024 will be the first time Team USA fans will have direct access to the Team USA House. At previous Olympics, the United States Olympic & Paralympic Committee’s (USOPC) Team USA House was reserved for Team USA athletes, their families and select Team USA guests.
That is no longer the case, thanks to official hospitality packages created for the Olympic and Paralympic Games by official hospitality provider, On Location.
A variety of comprehensive travel packages, all of which include access to Team USA House as well as guaranteed tickets to the most sought after events like Swimming, Diving, Track and Field and Women’s Soccer, to name a few, are now available for purchase, bringing spectators closer to world-class athletes like never before.
Travel Packages for Every Budget
With roughly 50 different travel packages to choose from, Team USA fans can choose their length of stay (2-6 nights), their level of service (3-5 stars), preferred hotel check-in dates and particular sports. There’s a package to fit every budget, starting from $2,800 per person.
Offering an opportunity for shorter stays, Short Stay 2024, ranges from one to six nights and features accommodations, transportation and Olympic Games tickets. Long Stay 2024, on the other hand, is for those looking to experience more of the Olympic Games and the host city, and includes additional opportunities like a custom tour of Paris, special gifting and centralized hospitality. Single or double occupancy is available for every package. Other special hospitality experiences include the aforementioned access to Team USA House, curated tours around Paris, and a dedicated staff.
Some packages include semi-private boxes and exclusive spaces at several iconic venues, champagne ready to be served by dedicated hosts, while other offerings bundle tickets to a sport event of the client’s choosing.
How To Score the Best Seats in the Stadium
A global leader in premium experiential hospitality, On Location, a subsidiary of Endeavor, has provided unrivaled immersive hospitality experiences at events like the Super Bowl, the NCAA Final Four and New York Fashion Week.
“Our mission is to bring unique access to the world’s biggest sporting events and our partnership with the USOPC continues those efforts,” said Paul Caine, president of On Location and IMG Events. “It’s been a pleasure to work with the USOPC to help bring Team USA House to life for fans and we look forward to unveiling new Hospitality and Travel Packages to fans in the lead-up to the Olympic and Paralympic Games.”
Team USA House
“We’re thrilled to provide Team USA supporters with the opportunity to experience Paris 2024 at our most exciting and inclusive Team USA House ever,” said USOPC CEO Sarah Hirshland. “The Team USA community – including family members, alumni athletes, donors, sponsors and fans – has waited more than six years to celebrate together with Team USA athletes at an Olympic and Paralympic Games, and these unique options for joining us in Paris offer the best way to enjoy this once-in-a-lifetime hospitality experience."
Located in the historic Palais Brongniart, a neoclassical building with Greek adornments, Team USA House will feature family friendly interactive activities, athlete appearances and Olympic Games viewing opportunities. Premium food and beverage options abound with both American and Parisian-inspired options.
From July 26 to August 11, 2024 10,500 athletes from 206 countries will compete across 32 sports in more than 750 sessions, including the debut of the new Olympic sport breaking, as well as the return of high-intensity, fast-paced Paralympic sports such as wheelchair rugby and blind football.
