Lady Gaga and Celine Dion to perform in the 2024 Paris Olympics

The 2024 Paris Olympics will be officially flagged off today (Friday). If you’re in EA, the opening ceremony begins at 8.30 p.m., and you don’t want to miss a moment. There will be lots of entertainment lined up, with Lady Gaga and Celine Dion among the expected musical acts.

The event will be historical as the first Olympic opening ceremony to be performed outside of the stadium. Around 6,000 to 7,000 athletes are set to sail down the Seine River on 85 barges and boats, with around 3,000 dancers, singers, and entertainers positioned on the banks, bridges, and nearby monuments.

Up to 500,000 people are set to watch in person from stands, on the river banks, and in the overlooking apartments.

Having sold 9.3 million out of 10 million tickets so far, the Paris 2024 Olympics became the most ticket-selling Olympic game in the event’s history.

Ticket prices range from around Ksh. 12,800 to over Ksh. 384,250, and the most expensive ticket holders have also bought a package that includes catering for Ksh. 556,500.
