Because of the safety concerns related to hosting the opening ceremony in a non enclosed area like a stadium, Paris Olympics officials have shared that alternate plans exist for the opening ceremony.

The market will resolve as Yes if the opening ceremony takes place on the Seine river, with national teams positioned on separate boats, floating at least from Pont d’Austerlitz to Pont d‘Iéna.

Any other alternatives will resolve as No, even if teams float for example on a shorter section of the Seine river.

> This year's Opening Ceremony will be the first ever held on a river.

Approximately 104,000 people in stands lining the River Seine will watch the event, with 220,000 more on raised roadways along a nearly four-mile stretch of the river, according to French Interior Minister Gérald Darmanin. @Mattfr

The opening ceremony starts in 8 hours. It looks like it will happen on the river indeed, but leaving this open until then, as there could still be a last minute event (eg terrorist attack) that could change everything.
