NBC looks to knock it out of the park with their Paris 2024 Olympics coverage. Here’s how to watch the games across all platforms.

NBCUniversal’s coverage of the Olympic Games Paris 2024, scheduled for July 26-Aug. 11, offers more options for viewers to watch events, competitions, and athletes than ever before.
