Paris Does Not Yet Hold the 2036 Olympic Bid: Status Update on Host City Contenders
Paris is confirmed to host the 2024 Summer Olympics but has not secured the 2036 Games. The bidding process for 2036 is ongoing, with cities like Doha (Qatar), Montreal (Canada), and Ahmedabad (India) actively engaged in dialogues with the IOC. Doha boasts 95% of the required infrastructure and a comprehensive readiness plan. India has officially submitted a letter of intent and is enhancing its sporting facilities but faces governance and doping concerns flagged by the IOC. The selection process continues without a definitive winner.
