French Interior Minister Gerald Darmanin said that the number of spectators who will be able to attend the opening ceremony of the 2024 Summer Olympics will be reduced again, AFP reports. About 300 thousand people will be able to witness the ceremony in Paris, scheduled for July 26, 2024. "We expect that 100,000 people will be in the stands located on the lower quays of the Seine. Another 220 thousand people will be able to settle on the upper embankments," Darmanen said. It should be noted that initially the organizers stated that they expected about 600 thousand people at the event, but in October last year this figure was reduced to 400 thousand people.The 2024 Olympic Games will be held in Paris from July 26 to August 11
