With the Paris Olympics 2024 scheduled for July 26, athletes with passports from Russia or Belarus will be participating as Individual Neutral Athletes (AINs). The quotas were determined through existing qualification competitions and some eligibility requirements.

It will also be the first time in history that the opening ceremony won't start off in a stadium, but will begin from the river Seine, where an armada of boats will carry over 200 delegation of athletes along the river, through the city. The ceremony will begin with boats carrying athletes from the Pont d'Austerlitz bridge. The boats will cover six kilometres over the Seine, before reaching the Pont d'Lena, which is nearby Eiffel Tower.
