Paris Olympic Schedule: Aussies in Action Saturday July 27

I don’t have a favourite Olympic Sport, I just love cheering on the Aussies, no matter what sport it is. But working out when they are on and when to tune in is tough!

So each day of the Paris Olympics we’ll try to outline when the Aussies are in action so you can set an alarm.

These games are overnight, so for some events you’re going to be staying up, some you’ll wake up for in the middle of the night, others you’ll get up early for. No matter what, there’s plenty to see!

While the Opening Ceremony will get people up on Saturday morning, the real action starts at night – Saturday July 27 into Sunday morning here’s what you can look forward to in order of when it’s happening:
