Paris 2024: Marseille's artists are going for gold right through Olympics (5/5)




With its breathtaking location on the Mediterranean, Marseille is one of the French cities hosting the 2024 Olympics. The Games are a perfect opportunity to promote its cultural wealth to the world. Join Eve Jackson for a special show about the French city going for gold when it comes to music, food and the arts. We meet 3-star Michelin chef and former professional basketball player Alexandre Mazzia, who’s an Olympic torchbearer and one of the chefs chosen to cook for the athletes. We also visit the photo exhibition where sportswomen are in the spotlight and speak to dancer and social worker Marina Gomes about promoting the cultural richness and talent in Marseille’s working-class areas.
