BUENOS AIRES, ARGENTINA - SEPTEMBER 07: International Olympic Committee (IOC) President Jacques Rogge pulls out the name of the city of Tokyo elected to host the 2020 Summer Olympics during a session of the IOC in Buenos Aires, on September 7, 2013.
Once the torch ignites the 2024 Paris Olympics several years from now, new events seem certain to attract the world’s spotlight, as the Olympic Committee continues to work towards expanding and diversifying the Olympic offerings.
More specifically, the 2024 Olympics poise to feature four new sports. Those sports include break dancing, sport climbing, skateboarding, and surfing. Other than the potential to generate further entertainment with these new events, this move comes as a conscious effort by the Olympic Committee as they continue to express their commitment to include more gender neutral events as the Olympic Games evolve. This plan overall aims to modernize the Olympics and expand the world–wide phenomenon to more people.
