The Olympic torch finally enters France when it reaches the southern seaport of Marseille on Wednesday May 8, 2024, on an armada from Greece. After leaving Marseille a vast relay route will be undertaken, including a sweep up the Chamonix-Mont-Blanc mountain pass, before the torch's odyssey ends on July 27 in Paris.
