LAUSANNE, July 29, 2022 - According to Paris 2024 International Communication and PR department; the new ‘Palais des Congrès’ building at Porte Maillot (Paris XVII) will replace the initial site located at the Parc des Expositions du Bourget (Seine-Saint-Denis), as the Main Press Centre during Paris 2024 Olympic Games.
This change came out of the Organising Committee’s wish to reduce the cost and time required to build and assemble temporary facilities by using instead an existing infrastructure and venue.
The International Broadcast Centre - IBC (Centre International de Radio Télédiffusion, or CIRTV in French), which will welcome around 15,000 Olympic Broadcasting Services and official broadcasters, including reporters and technical teams, has been confirmed to be situated at the Parc des Expositions - Paris - Le Bourget (Seine-Saint-Denis) during Paris 2024. According to L'Équipe.
This shift will ensure that the media, journalists and photographers, will be a stone's throw away from the Olympic lanes and public transport networks enabling access to the various competition sites, Paris 2024 claimed. The IOC and IPC will officially validate the relocation by autumn.
