Read about the new Olympic sports at the Paris 2024 games, and what to expect from newcomers like breaking.
The Olympics is an ever-changing international competition, and new Olympic sports are constantly being added to the Games. What started with just 43 events in 9 sports in 1896 has since transformed into 363 medal events in 45 sports in 2024. With new Olympic sports and events being added to the lineup each year, it’s hard to keep track of exactly what’s new and what’s not. The 2024 Olympics will see the inclusion of two new events: breaking and kayak cross.
Nine judges will score the dancers based on creativity, personality, technique, variety, performativity, and musicality, according to NBC. Unlike other dances, which are coordinated ahead of time to specific music, breakers do not know the music ahead of time and must improvise their routine to the beat.
