On Instagram, the Paris 2024 Olympic Games committee revealed the uniform that will be worn by the Olympic flame bearers. And this in particular by Laure and Florent Manaudou.
The Olympic torch relay will take place in style. On Friday July 26, 2024, Paris will kick off the 131st Olympic Games. In all, 10,500 athletes from the four corners of the world are expected to participate in the 329 events planned for this occasion. But before giving way to the competition, a very symbolic event will punctuate the preparation for these games: the Olympic torch relay. An essential tradition, the first torch of the Paris 2024 Olympic torch relay will be lit on April 16, 2024, according to ancient tradition, using the rays of the sun, during a ceremony in the sanctuary of Olympia, in Greece , where the ancient games took place.
From the Peloponnese, the Olympic flame will reach Athens to board the Belem and cross the Mediterranean Sea. It is on May 8, 2024, in Marseille, that the Olympic flame will begin its epic journey in France. From then on, many athletes, nicknamed the Scouts, will have to carry it to the capital for the opening of the Olympic Games. Among them, Laure and Florent Manaudou, but also Francis Mona and Dimitri Pavadé, who revealed, on Sunday November 12, the uniforms they will wear for the occasion.
