President of the Paris 2024 Organising Committee for the Olympic and Paralympic Games, Tony Estanguet poses next to the River Seine on July 17, 2023, during a parade to test « maneuvers », « distances », « duration » and « video capture » of the future opening ceremony of the Paris Olympics in 2024. For this mini-rehearsal, the total fleet is made up of 57 boats, 39 representing the delegations – slightly less than half as many as for the actual ceremony in 2024 – and 18 others providing support (assistance, first aid) as well as Olympic Broadcasting Services (OBS), the Olympic TV broadcaster.
