How to watch the Summer Olympics on TV, online and mobile

The 2024 Olympic Games in Paris begin today. Here is how to watch all of the action.

PARIS, France — No matter your chosen platform or device, there are many different options to tune in for the Games of the XXXIII Olympiad in Paris.

Coverage will be available for all 329 medal events across each of the 39 sports that are part of this summer's Olympics. The Opening Ceremony will be held Friday, July 26, but competition in several sports will begin on Wednesday, July 24.

Over 500 athletes will be competing for Team USA in Paris, with representatives in most of the Olympic sports. Quite a few members of Team USA have ties to western Washington, not to mention over a dozen competing for other nations.

As a reminder, Paris is nine hours ahead of the West Coast.

Watch the Olympics on TV

Opening Ceremony coverage will begin live at 9 a.m. PT on KING 5. For the first time in history, the ceremony will not be held in a stadium. One of the world's most iconic waterways, the River Seine, will host a four-mile-long flotilla with over 90 boats featuring thousands of athletes from over 200 countries. The boats will go past spectators along the banks of the Seine and the floating parade will finish at the Eiffel Tower.

In addition to live coverage of the entire Opening Ceremony, KING 5 will air primetime coverage of the event beginning at 7:30 p.m. PT.

Primetime in Paris will be NBC's new nightly show with coverage of all the day's biggest events along with enhanced storytelling and reaction from Mike Tirico and the rest of the network's coverage team. Daily primetime coverage will begin on KING 5 at 8 p.m. PT. Snoop Dogg is expected to provide his unique commentary on the days' events during most of the primetime broadcasts.
