At the last Summer Games in Tokyo, contacts were prohibited due to the corona pandemic. Contrary to tradition, there were no condoms - as a precaution against the spread of the coronavirus. In Paris, in addition to the free condoms in the Olympic Village, there will also be an athletes' bar. However, champagne and other alcoholic drinks are not served there.
At the end of February, French President Emmanuel Macron inaugurated the Olympic Village. At the symbolic handover of the keys, Macron spoke of the “adventure of a century”. The newly built 82 buildings in the north of Paris will accommodate over 14.000 athletes and their employees. The Summer Olympics will take place in Paris from July 26th to August 11th.
