Although the 2020 Summer Olympics was canceled because of the current pandemic, fans worldwide rejoiced after it was rescheduled. The event started on July 23, 2021, and will end on August 8. The Summer Olympics is still ongoing and is taking place in Tokyo, Japan.

It is the second time for Tokyo to host the Summer Olympics. Meanwhile, it is believed that other sites in the country have hosted the Winter Olympics. Since the Summer Olympics is happening in Japan, the audience from other time zones, including those in the Eastern Time Zone, will experience a significant time difference.

Tokyo is 13 hours ahead of the Eastern Time Zone in the United States. That means the Olympics started on Tuesday, the 20th, on the east coast. Mark your calendars because the final events will wrap around the morning of the 8th in the US.
