In Paris, interested parties discreetly made their case for hosting future Olympics in a process run by the IOC that is now more discreet, less obviously a campaign and which critics say is too opaque. It can end with a winner far quicker than the old way of holding a multi-candidate vote seven years before the Games open.

India’s Nita Ambani attends the inauguration of the Indian House at the 2024 Summer Olympics, Saturday, July 27, 2024, in Paris , France. Turkey’s Nafia Kus Aydin celebrates after winning the women’s over 67kg Taekwondo bronze final match against Britain’s Rebecca McGowan during the 2024 Summer Olympics, at the Grand Palais, Saturday, Aug. 10, 2024, in Paris , France.

The IOC has said it has a “double-digit” number of cities or countries in talks, maybe informal at this stage, about their interest in hosting a future Summer Games which can be later than 2036.At the opening of India House on July 27, IOC member Nita Ambani said hosting an Olympics was “a dream that belongs to 1.4 billion Indians.”.

“You are also competing with the past experiences of Olympic Games,” İmamoğlu said in translated comments. “You need to do better than what has been done in the past.”What Paris has done is show an IOC focused on sustainability that the Olympics can be staged without building white elephant venues that stand long after the closing ceremony as a reminder of wasted taxpayer costs.
