The Tokyo 2020 Olympic and Paralympic venues are on course to be completed in time for test events to be held there later this year, games organizers said Tuesday.
Sailing and water polo federations have already staged dress rehearsals in Tokyo, and the 2020 Olympic and Paralympic organizing committee is gearing up for a busy summer in which several sporting federations will hold test events at the venues.
The Tokyo Metropolitan Government is constructing seven brand-new venues for the games and on Tuesday gave reporters a tour of the Olympic Village and four arenas, plus the Ariake Gymnastics Centre being built by the Tokyo 2020 organizing committee. The four metro government venues on the tour were the Kasai Canoe Slalom Centre, Sea Forest Waterway, Ariake Arena and the Tokyo Aquatics Centre.
