The high point of a festive and unifying summer

Emotions, records, celebrations, magnificent venues in the heart of the city... the Paralympic Games are shaping up to be just as festive and spectacular as the Olympic Games! On 8 September, after 11 days of sporting exploits, Paris will celebrate the 4,400 athletes from 168 Paralympic delegations at the Paralympic Games Closing Ceremony. After the protocol sequences, the athletes' parade and the handover of the flag from Paris 2024 to Los Angeles 2028, Paris 2024 will put on a huge open-air party for the public at the Stade de France.

From the magic of the first illuminations to the effervescence of the cabaret evenings of the Belle Époque, Paris has established itself as the epicentre of the world's party scene. The French capital gave birth to the first night clubs, places of artistic expression and freedom, which thrilled all those they welcomed. True ambassadors of our culture at major global gatherings, the artists of the French electronic scene have conquered the world. They are the heirs to the long history of celebration and music that has made Paris a cultural and festive beacon for the world.
