Breaking: Known as breakdancing, this street style dance will debut, showcasing B-Boys and B-Girls in head-to-head improv dance battles.
Skateboarding: Introduced in Tokyo 2020, it continues to gain popularity and will be part of the Paris 2024 events.
Surfing: Another sport from Tokyo 2020, surfing will see competitions held in Tahiti, French Polynesia.
Sport Climbing: This challenging sport, first included in Tokyo 2020, returns to test athletes' speed, bouldering, and lead climbing skills.

- Team Sports: Tournaments in handball, rugby, and soccer began before the opening ceremony, setting the stage for an exciting fortnight.
