The 2020 Summer Olympics, officially known as the Games of the XXXII Olympiad (Japanese: 第三十二回オリンピック競技大会 Hepburn: Dai Sanjūni-kai Orinpikku Kyōgi Taikai)[1] and commonly known as Tokyo 2020, is an upcoming international multi-sport event that is scheduled to take place from 24 July to 9 August 2020 in Tokyo, Japan, with preliminary events in some sports beginning on 22 July.

Tokyo was selected as the host city during the 125th IOC Session in Buenos Aires, Argentina on 7 September 2013.[2] These Games will mark the return of the Summer Olympic Games to Tokyo for the first time since 1964, the first city in Asia to host the Olympic Games twice, and the fourth Olympics overall to be held in Japan, following the 1972 Winter Olympics in Sapporo and the 1998 Winter Olympics in Nagano.

These Games will see the introduction of additional disciplines within several of the Summer Olympics sports, including 3x3 basketball, freestyle BMX and Madison cycling, as well as further mixed events. Under new IOC policies that allow sports to be added to the Games' program to augment the permanent "core" Olympic events, these Games will see karate, sport climbing, surfing and skateboarding make their Olympic debuts, and the return of baseball and softball (which were removed from the summer program after 2008).

With the Summer Olympics in Tokyo now just a year away — the opening ceremony is July 24, 2020 — the preparations for the Games is in full swing.

Several new sports will be joining the Summer Olympics roster, with karate, skateboarding, surfing and sport climbing making their debut, while baseball and softball make a return after a two-Games absence. In all, there will be 33 sports competed in at the Tokyo Games, with about 5,000 medals set to be won.

Key dates

The Olympics run July 24 until Aug. 9. Softball and soccer get underway before the official opening, with matches schedule July 22. Rowing and archery begin on the day of the opening ceremony with medal rounds the next day.

Some of the new sports will be featured early: skateboarding and 3-on-3 basketball starting on the second day.

Time zone difference

Tokyo is 13 hours ahead of America’s East Coast, but NBC will again live stream countless hours and events.

Ticket information

About 70% of available tickets have been reserved for Japanese residents. Tickets are currently only available through authorized ticket resellers — CoSport is the lone distributor for the U.S. — but scores of tickets are sold out already for the initial distribution phase.

Venues

Japan last hosted the Summer Olympics in 1964 (Sapporo and Nagano hosted the Winter Olympics in 1972 and 1998, respectively), and some of the same historic venues from the last Tokyo Games will be used this time around. The Nippon Budokan, used for the judo competition in 1964, will once again hold judo events, as well as karate.

Mascot

Miraitowa, a blue-and-white checkerboarded animal-like being with ears resembling those of a fox, got its name by mixing two Japanese words together: mirai (future) and towa (eternity).

Miraitowa was one of three finalists and selected by classes of Japanese primary school children.
