The basketball competitions at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris, France, are held from 27 July to 11 August 2024.[1] Preliminary 5-on-5 basketball matches occur at Stade Pierre-Mauroy in Lille, with the final phase staged at the Accor Arena (renamed to Bercy Arena due to IOC rules disallowing Olympic host venues to be named after corporate sponsors) in Paris.[2][3] Retaining its position in the program, the 3x3 competitions will be played at Place de la Concorde.[4]
