The 2020 Tokyo Olympics have been officially rescheduled.
The Games were originally scheduled to be held on July 24, but on Monday, the International Olympic Committee’s executive board announced that they would now be held from July 23 through August 8, 2021. The Games will still take place in Tokyo, with Yoshiro Mori, president of the Tokyo 2020 Organizing Committee,, “The consensus was that staging the rescheduled Games during the summer vacation in Japan would be preferable.
Although the Games won’t take place until next calendar year, they will continue to be referred to as the “2020 Olympic Games” to avoid confusion in subsequent years. This constitutes the first postponement in Olympic history, although there were five occasions that the Games were simply canceled, with all taking place during wartime.
“These new dates give the health authorities and all involved in the organization of the Games the maximum time to deal with the constantly changing landscape and the disruption caused by the COVID-19 pandemic,” the IOC
