    Per the official Olympics website , members of the International Olympic Committee (IOC) select the host city by a majority of votes cast by secret ballot. Each active member has one vote. If a majority is not achieved in the first round of voting, the candidate with the fewest votes is eliminated, and a further round or rounds of voting are held until a majority is obtained by one candidate.

    Paris, France was selected as the primary host city for the 2024 Summer Olympics . Other cities have already been mapped out around Winter and Summer Olympic cycles for 2026 through 2034.
