The 2024 Summer Olympics are about to wrap up in Paris, France, but there’s still one day of competition left to go.

Australia’s women’s basketball team — the Opals — will be playing for a bronze medal on day 16 of the Games. 

There’s also a bunch of other gold medal matches happening. 

Because of the time difference, it’ll be Sunday night in Australia when many of those events kick off.

The closing ceremony is also happening, with the spectacle set to kick off at 5am AEST on Monday.

Here’s what’s on the schedule for the last day of the Paris Olympics.
