The 2024 Summer Olympics, which will be officially known as the Games of the XXXIII Olympiad if the present naming convention and frequency is unchanged, are an international athletic event that might be organized by the International Olympic Committee. The winning bid should be announced in 2017.

Potential bids

Africa

Durban was the most likely South African candidate for the 2020 Summer Olympics, before the country withdrew its bid.[1] If Durban does not win the bid, there is a possibility that they will bid for the 2024 or 2028 Summer Olympics.[2]

Asia

Taiwan's capital and largest city may put in a bid in accordance with a campaign promise made by now-president Ma Ying-jeou while he was running for president in 2008. It is seen as the culmination of a build-up in hosting sporting events for Taipei and the rest of Taiwan. Taipei hosted the 2009 Deaflympics while Kaohsiung hosted the 2009 World Games.[3]

Europe

  • France Paris
The French capital was unsuccessful in vying to be the host city for the 1992, 2008 and 2012 Olympic Games. The year 2024 will mark the 100th anniversary of the 1924 Summer Olympics held in Paris. The former French Minister of Sports, Jean-Francois Lamour, had made it clear that 2024 represents a choice objective for a Parisian bid. €35 million will be planned to build new sports venues around Paris in order to improve quality of the future Parisian bid.[4][5][6]
The organization of the Games in Copenhagen has proposed a joint bid in the Oresund Region and is investigated by the Danish government.[7] A cooperation with Malmö and other cities in the region has been proposed.[8] Malmö politicians are positive to the idea of arranging Olympics together with the neighboring country, Denmark.[9] If the Oresund Region bids and wins, it will be the first Olympics organized by two different countries at the same time. Several multi-national bids have been made before, but not been accepted by the IOC.
The Dutch city of Amsterdam showed interest to bid for the Games.[10] Amsterdam is noted for hosting the 1928 Summer Olympics.
Madrid is planning a bid for the 2024, or the 2020 Summer Olympics.[11] The city bid to host the 2016 Summer Olympics but was defeated by Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
Warsaw is planning a bid for the 2024.
Ukrainian Vice-Prime Minister, Borys Kolesnikov, stated that in the case that Ukraine successfully co-hosts the Euro 2012 with Poland, it may potentially place a bid for hosting the 2024 Summer Olympics.[12] Ukraine is also planning a bid for the 2022 Winter Olympics.

North America

On 10 July 2007 it was revealed that the Canadian Olympic Committee had begun work on a potential bid for the 2020 or 2024 games for Toronto, the capital of Ontario and largest city in Canada.[13] This would be Toronto's third bid for the summer Olympic games, after unsuccessful bids for the 1996 and 2008 games, but a successful bid for the 2015 Pan American Games.
Larry Needle, executive director of the Philadelphia Sports Congress, said that if Philadelphia, the largest city in Pennsylvania, wants to host the Olympics, its earliest realistic chance would be the 2024 Summer Games.[14] A study by eleven graduate students from the University of Pennsylvania showed that Philadelphia should consider bidding for the 2024 Olympics. The study said that one of the city's biggest challenges would be convincing the voters who select the host city that Philadelphia is a "world-class city", something that "will require strategic changes in the city’s landscape in conjunction with a persuasive marketing strategy".

Oceania

Brisbane has been pre-selected by the Australian Olympic Committee as a likely Australian bid city. The bid has been endorsed by Queensland Premier Anna Bligh and Brisbane Lord Mayor Campbell Newman. The President of the IOC Jacques Rogge has also mentioned that Brisbane would have a high chance of receiving the games.[15] Brisbane has hosted several major sporting events including the 1982 Commonwealth Games and the 2001 Goodwill Games. The city also hosted events during the 1987 Rugby World Cup, 1992 Cricket World Cup, 2000 Sydney Olympics, the 2003 Rugby World Cup and hosted the Final of the 2008 Rugby League World Cup. The city previously bid for the 1992 Olympics, coming 3rd to Barcelona and Paris. This bid also coincides with a bid for Brisbane to host the 2020 World Expo and a possible 2018 Youth Olympics Bid.
  • Australia Melbourne
Melbourne is considering a bid for either the 2024 or 2028 Summer Olympics. The only major venue that would need to be constructed would be a rowing and canoeing course. The city hosted the 1956 Summer Olympics and the 2006 Commonwealth Games. It already has the infrastructure in place to host such an event.[16]

South America

President of the Peruvian Institute for Sports, Arturo Woodman, said that Peru would try to bid for the 2024 Summer Olympic Games,[17] although the games being held in Rio de Janeiro in 2016 might pose a challenge as the IOC will view it as too recent for a South American return.[17]

Broadcasting

South Korea's SBS is the first television network to secure the broadcasting deals for this Games.[18]
