When to watch wrestling during the 2024 Paris Olympics
One of the Olympics' oldest sports, wrestling has been featured at every edition of the Summer Games except for 1900 -- which also took place in Paris.
Wrestling returns to the Olympic spotlight this August via 18 competitions in the City of Light. Three years after the United States earned nine total sport medals at the Tokyo Games (the most of any nation), American veterans like Helen Maroulis and Kyle Snyder aim to demonstrate continued dominance, further cement their places in Olympic history -- and possibly pass the torch to another generation of grapplers.
Wrestlers take to the mat from Monday, August 5 to Sunday, August 11 as part of the 2024 Paris Olympics. Athletes will gut wrench for gold, silver and bronze across 18 total competitions, with each of the three events -- men compete in freestyle and Greco-Roman; women chase Olympic glory in freestyle -- divided into six weight classes.
| Men's Freestyle 57kg 65kg 74kg 86kg 97kg 125kg |
Women's Freestyle 50kg 53kg 57kg 62kg 68kg 76kg |
Men's Greco-Roman 60kg 67kg 77kg 87kg 97kg 130kg |
Venue
Champ de Mars Arena -- the temporary structure erected as a venue for art, fashion and sports, mere steps from the Eiffel Tower -- will host the wrestling events during the 2024 Paris Olympics.
Judo events will also make use of the mats inside the Champ de Mars Arena.
