When to watch diving during the 2024 Paris Olympics

The diving competition at the 2024 Paris Olympics will be contested in two events - the 3-meter springboard and 10-meter high dive. Prepare for divers to ascend new heights on the 3-meter, while the high dive is performed from a fixed platform positioned 10 meters above the water. The individual and synchronized competitions take place at both the 3-meter and 10-meter heights.

Diving has long been a part of the Olympic program, making its debut in the 1904 St. Louis Games. Women’s diving events became part of the program in 1912 and the synchronized competition was added at the 2000 Sydney Olympic Games.

While the U.S. was strong in this event when it first joined the Olympic program, China has dominated in recent memory, winning seven of eight gold medals at the 2008 Beijing Games. Diving will take place at the 2024 Paris Olympics between July 27th - August 10th.

Venues

The diving competition will happen at the Olympics Aquatic Center. This venue, along with Le Bourget Climbing Wall, are the only permanent sports facilities set to be built for the Paris Games. The Olympics Aquatic Center is poised to host artistic swimming, water polo and diving in 2024. The Center was designed using bio-sourced materials only, making it a low-carbon facility that is committed to its energy and environmental performance.

After the Games, the venue will address the needs of Seine-Saint-Denis, its host region, and the French community as it continues to host major national and international competitions, such as the European Aquatics Championships and the World Aquatics Championships. The Aquatics Center will house a range of sports facilities after the Games, including a fitness area, climbing wall, paddle tennis courts and pitches for team sports.
