At the feet of champions

The Parc des Champions, located at the Trocadéro, at the foot of the Eiffel Tower, was designed by the athletes themselves, through the OCOG Athletes’ Commission and that of the IOC. It will be open from July 29 to August 10 from 4 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. (except from July 2 to 4 due to events occupying the space). Every day, the public will attend the Parade of the athletes, the medalists of the day before, from all countries, who will want to pass there. The grand finals will be broadcast from 7:30 p.m. to 11:30 p.m. for a maximum audience of 15,000 people. Access will be free and without reservation. In line with the beautiful slogan promised months ago by the OCOG: open the Games wide.

The Parc des Champions will recall the Trocadero fan zone during the Tokyo Games, where the French medalists (here the mixed judo team) marched on their return from Japan.

In addition to the twenty cultural entertainment sites in the city, Paris and the Ile de France offer four mega celebration sites, or Clubs 2024; at the Hôtel de Ville, at the Parc des Nations in La Villette, near the Stade de France along the Saint-Denis canal, and at the Parc Georges-Valbon in La Courneuve. This 410-hectare park will be open for 14 days during the Olympics, 3 during the Paralympics, for 5,000 to 10,000 people. The images announce an exceptional setting.

5,000 to 10,000 people are expected each day.
