In 2024, Paris will be the host of the most famous sporting event in the world! Held every 4 years, it is the turn of the City of Love to welcome the world’s finest sporting talent to compete in 2.5 weeks of awe-inspiring competition.
Paris and its surrounding regions will serve as the primary venues for the Games. Iconic venues such as the Eiffel Tower, the Champs-Élysées, the Palace of Versailles, and the Seine River will feature prominently.
