Thirty Games in the colours of their medallists
Every gold medal of every Summer Games, flowing left to right in the colours of the delegations that won them — Athens in 1896, Paris three times, the Soviet Union’s forty years, the gaps of two world wars. The river thickens as the programme grows from 43 events to 329. Hover a Games to read it; click to step into it. Pick a sport above, or a category of event.
