Summer Olympics appearances (overview)

Chile competed at the 2024 Summer Olympics in Paris from 26 July to 11 August 2024. Since the nation's debut in 1896, Chilean athletes have appeared in all but five editions of the Summer Olympics of the modern era. Chile did not attend the 1932 Summer Olympics in Los Angeles at the period of the worldwide Great Depression and was also part of the US-led boycott, when Moscow hosted the 1980 Summer Olympics.

Chile's opening ceremony flagbearers were Nicolás Jarry and Antonia Abraham.[1] The nation won a gold medal for the first time since 2004.
