There have been 30 Summer Olympic Games so far, from Athens 1896 through Paris 2024.

A quick way to picture it:

  • The modern Summer Olympics started in 1896 in Athens.
  • They’re normally held every four years (with some cancellations during the World Wars).
  • Counting every edition that actually took place up to and including Paris 2024 gives a total of 30 Summer Olympics.
