This blog is now closed. Here are the highlights: The city of lights was completely dolled up for the pathbreaking opening ceremony on the Seine River. This year's ceremony is historic as it is the first time the opening ceremony will not be held in a stadium. Instead, boats paraded the athletes on the River Seine. Singer Lady Gaga and French football legend Zinedine Zidane were among the stars who made appearances at the uniqu Ceremony.

The Paris Olympics Opening Ceremony ended after a four-hour extravaganza with French President Emmanuel Macron declaring the 2024 Paris Olympic Games open.
